Mary's Nineteenth Century

Upon hearing the news of Will's death, Mary didn't have any special thoughts about the murder on Wall Street.

The deaths of the Wilkes came a little suddenly, but they were not too unexpected.

As early as when Andrews blamed the death of Toby, the manager, on the Zar Monster, it was almost doomed to encounter retaliation.

Unsurprisingly, Andrews was the first to be killed by the Jars.

The ear monster claims that it is impossible to kill only one thug in order to eliminate the demon in the ear. It is logical to target the gang that Andrews works for.

Even so, it's impossible for Mary to remind the person who watched her, is it necessary to tell Will that Will will be killed?

Wouldn't that be equivalent to foolishly exposing that she already knew the ins and outs of the gold manipulation case, and sent her to tell Will, 'Although you have sent people to watch me, and may even threaten me to join a gang or assassinate me if you disagree, I still Kindly reminding you that the Jars may kill you. '

Who would be foolish enough to offer good advice?

Anyway, Mary never had extra kindness.

She was even more sure that the Hungry Wolf Gang, as Will's military force, must have been alerted, and the tall leader must have reminded Will.

How much will Will listen to, can outsiders control it?

Mary admits that she did not let Zaer's murderer go, and she also wants to find the murderer as soon as possible, but this is not the age of the Internet, and there is no way to implement comprehensive monitoring.

It is even more unrealistic to follow Will and his men 24 hours a day.Firstly, there is not enough manpower to help, secondly, there is no technological assistance, and thirdly, he might be regarded as an enemy and attacked by the Hungry Wolf Gang.

As for cooperating to catch the murderer?

This comes back around and requires Will's full cooperation.

To cooperate with a bold speculator who is engaged in a gold squeeze operation case is undoubtedly seeking skin from a tiger.

It can be said that people who dare to force short the US gold trading market are already only thinking about their money and not their lives.He doesn't care about the ear monsters, and he won't realize the reality until the day he is murdered.

It's not that Mary hasn't thought about the possibility of cooperating in trapping, and she's not afraid of negotiating cooperation with Will, but she needs to get more clues about the Zarer Monster.

For example, if there is an initial suspect, otherwise there are so many people coming and going in New York, we should pay attention to how to talk about cooperation if no one can tell.

It can only be said that Will's luck is not good enough.

France and the German Empire were at war.

Mycroft was able to obtain information about the suspect Chris from Paris as quickly as possible in the chaos, but before he could use this as evidence to find Will, the murder had already arrived.

The office buildings near the Gold Exchange are where managers and speculators gather.

Financial transactions of tens of thousands of dollars are negotiated here every day, just like other office buildings on Wall Street, this place is filled with the smell of money.

Today it turned into a room full of blood and pungent noses.

Will is not an ordinary person, he and a group of his men were killed while making a gold trading plan.

The time of death was around [-]:[-] p.m. to [-]:[-] p.m., and the door of the meeting room was closed tightly, and no one outside noticed anything wrong.It wasn't until six o'clock in the evening that the security guards inspected the entire building and were about to close the doors, only to find that Will's office on the third floor was abnormal.

"Through the crack of the door, I smelled a bloody smell."

The security guard stood in the corridor and pointed at the door of the meeting room tremblingly. "The door is not locked, I opened the door and went in, and saw, vomit..."

When the security guard thought of the scene he witnessed five or ten minutes ago, his entire stomach stirred, and he couldn't suppress the nausea.

At first glance, the seven people seemed to be sitting on chairs, but they were all lying on the conference table in a mess.Fourteen ears were pierced, red and white blood and brains flowed all over the table.

The setting sun slanted into the meeting room, and the deadly office was enveloped in the dusk of residual blood, and the seven corpses were dying.His expression was frozen at the last second before his death, showing extreme unbelievable horror.

Even though the security guard had seen the chaotic gang killings in New York, this tragic death scene still made a strong man scream out in shock.

Next, the NYPD arrived.

On the long table in the meeting room, there are some paper documents, which mainly record how to manipulate the price of the gold market.

The police didn't know the specific data, but how could a murder of this scale be concealed, and the person in charge of the gold exchange soon heard the news.

Not long after, two big news leaked out, namely Will's killing and his attempt to squeeze the U.S. gold market.

To be precise, this shocking news that shook Wall Street has not yet broken out.

Now is not the 21st century when you only need a mobile phone to break the news on Twitter and Facebook, but the 19th century when paper media has just flourished.

A group of people, such as the Weasley reporter, got the news first, and the two big news won't hit New York until the morning papers are sold tomorrow morning at the earliest.

The reason why Mary and Mycroft were able to investigate the scene of the crime was that on the one hand, they started to follow up and investigate the origin of the Zar when Toby’s manager was killed, and on the other hand, they were not unknown in Wall Street. .

Otherwise, whether it is the New York Police Department or the head of the Wall Street exchange, it is impossible to allow unknown people to enter the investigation.

This time the crime scene was slightly different.

There was no trace of fighting, and the ears of the seven people were pierced when they were unable to resist.Unlike Andrews, the Hungry Wolf Gang thug who died on the street, the Welch man had no needle marks on his neck.

It is preliminarily inferred that the seven people ate food containing strong ecstasy during the afternoon tea time.There is still unfinished black tea on the table, and the specific situation can only be concluded after examining the remnants of the teacup.

Although the method of stunning the seven Will is still uncertain, the killing method in the latter step is exactly the same.The sharp knife entered his ear and stabbed him hard.

The security guard of the office building said that he had not seen any suspicious elements, but found several men's shoe prints on the outer wall of the office building, which were located in the tea room on the first floor.

The shoe print pattern is leather shoes, which are obviously different from the shoe prints of men's rubber shoes that appeared in slaughterhouses, cemeteries, etc., but the size is the same.

"What kind of clothes do you wear on any occasion? The murderer is very good at blending into the environment."

Mary looked at the prints on the leather shoes. Unlike the cheaper rubber shoes worn by the ear monsters before, the pattern on the soles of this time showed that they were new shoes produced by O brand this year.

"This leather shoe has been on the shelves for a month, and there are four stores in New York. If we are lucky enough, we may be able to find out exactly where the ear monster bought the shoes."

Mycroft didn't think the zaar would be easily exposed.

Based on the features of the suspect Chris described by the Paris Telegraph, he drew a sketch of a portrait.I asked around the staff, but none of them paid attention to whether there was anyone similar to Chris in the office building in the afternoon.

"Adept at disguising, good at hiding, and the ear-jarring murderer is quite patient. It is not easy to find her whereabouts."

Mycroft was not all for nothing, "However, there are some features that cannot be concealed. Chrissy's medical record records that she suffered multiple beatings. I suspect that her ear tissue was damaged, forming a cauliflower ear shape. The cleaner said that he did encounter a man with a raw face and cauliflower ears this afternoon."

Cauliflower ear is a common name, which refers to the ear cartilage necrosis caused by trauma, and the blood is blocked to form a protruding mass.Fighters usually have this kind of occupational disease, but it is rare in office clerks, unless they have suffered heavy blows by force for a long time.

Even if this is verified, but New York is so big, where can I find the piercing ear monster with cauliflower ears?

Soon, it became a concern across New York.

There's a brutal murder near the Wall Street Gold Exchange, and an ear-piercing serial killer haunts New York.

On the second day after Will's death, the murder case was published on the front pages of all major newspapers in New York.

"In one and a half months, eight people were killed by Zar'er. Who will be the next victim?"

"Jaar Monster VS Gold Squeeze, the mastermind behind the scenes, speculator Will, lost!"

"The gold squeeze war died halfway, and the speculator Will was killed. The strange man, a man who accidentally saved the gold trading market?"

Many people are afraid of the killing methods of the ear monster, and are deeply afraid that they will become the next victim.

But at the same time, a group of Wall Street businessmen were also secretly glad that Will died in a timely manner, otherwise, how many people would become impoverished in the gold squeeze.

In any case, the vast majority of people still hope to catch the ear monster as soon as possible.

Even some people think that Will's death is not a pity, but they don't want to let a dangerous killer hang around in New York.

On November 11, two days after Will's death, the relevant autopsy results were released.

The seven victims were drugged. It was the black tea they drank that was poisoned.This potion is similar to the toxin that Andrews was poisoned by blowing needles, and it is a drug from the Amazon jungle.

Because of the two different poisoning methods of oral administration and injection, there has been a slight change in the dosage and composition of the medication.

This is undoubtedly bad news. It means that Zarmon is good at adapting to the times and is constantly evolving its modus operandi.

Who will be killed next?

At this time, Melissa brought a new development, "I think something may have happened to Drew."

Previously, according to the word "Shakespeare" suggested by the Ouija board, it was linked that Bernie's madness may be related to the Steven family to which Melissa's fiancé belongs.

Kenan's jumping death pointed out the existence of the leader behind the scenes, and then suspected that Drew Steven was hiding his whereabouts in New York.

Although Drew was suspicious, this incident was not like the murder of the Zarra monster that everyone in New York knew.

According to the agreement between Drew and his fiancée Melissa, he should return to New York in mid-November.

Melissa did not wait for the news of Drew's return. Originally, she wanted to wait for someone to come back to test it out, but after waiting for five days, there was still no one.

"Drew is always punctual, and even if there is an accident in the middle, he will send someone to tell me. This time he returned five days later than the promised return date, and he didn't send a message back. I think..."

Drew, it's probably more than good luck.

Mycroft was not surprised by this.

When initially linking the Zarmon with Benny and Kenan, it was speculated that there is an instigator who induces the onset of mental abnormalities, and the Zarmon and the instigator behind the scenes may fight each other.

At this moment, Drew is overdue, which in a disguised form proves that the nest may have been staged.

Now that the Zaer murder case has spread all over New York, there is no news that a similar murder scene has been found again, which may indicate that Drew was imprisoned and still alive.

"Assuming that Chris really met an instigator who turned her from a victim of domestic violence into a murderer, that instigator means something special to her. She will not kill the other party easily, but will take some special measures. means to torture prisoners."

Mary could almost conclude that Drew, who had lost the news, was the instigator behind the scenes because of the sheepskin notebook.

Notes left by Hesse Steven, taken over by nephew Drew as part of the estate.

It writes a set of mystic theories in Arabic, which mainly demonstrates whether the human spirit can be controlled.

What dark operations Drew has done will be discussed later.

Now it is time to find him and Chris before Drew is killed.

Where will these two people be?

A map of New York and its surroundings was spread out on a long table.

Marked successively the places where the Zar-ear monsters appeared, from the initial animal corpses stolen from the slaughterhouse, the human corpses stolen from the cemetery, the haunted house where the snail shells were found, the alley where Andrews was killed, until the most recent office building on Wall Street, Did they choose addresses randomly to commit crimes?

Several are not in a straight line, they look so disorganized, some in Brooklyn, some in Manhattan.Can you find the pattern from it and deduce the place where the next crime will happen?

The next moment, two voices sounded at the same time.

"Fibonacci spiral."

"Golden spiral."

Mary and Mycroft glanced at each other and pointed to a point on the map.
