"Hee hee, it hurts...why...it hurts, no matter where it is... no matter where it is, [we] are in so much pain, I want to cry... so much..." 【Jack the Ripper】suddenly Said, the expression that was still full of anger was gradually replaced by sadness and regret, "Mom...abandoned [us] again——yes... [us], what is it... [us], is it Jack... ...[We] are nothing—”

"Abandoned, how many times have you been abandoned? Mom abandoned [us], and mother doesn't want us anymore, so what should I do, what should [us] do—" [Jack the Ripper] raised his head and cried shouted to the sky.

".........Kill..."

However, in the next second, a simple word popped out of Jack's mouth, an understatement, a word without any modification came out of this innocent little girl's mouth!

Yue Chen's pupils shrank, and he turned his head abruptly——【Jack the Ripper】appeared beside him at some point, and the dagger in his hand stabbed viciously at his stomach!

"Please! Mom! [We]—want to go back! Back there, back to Mom's place! I'm sorry Mom! [We] really want to go back into your body! We want to be born again! "[Jack the Ripper] couldn't stop the tears from flowing out, she was crying, begging, constantly torturing her state of mind.

She has always been just a simple little girl, whether it is her dream or her existence, she is a child as pure as a white paper, but it is precisely because she is so pure that she is like a white paper that she is even more frightening.

Can't tell if something is good or bad,

Can't tell someone's good from evil,

The concept cannot be sound,

The mind cannot grow,

Purity and innocence are more terrifying than depravity.

【No, the spirit foundation has been promoted again... This child has now reached the level of a servant! ? ] Babbage couldn’t calm down anymore, and said as he looked at [Jack the Ripper], who suddenly burst out far surpassing the previous spirit base.

From a wraith to a servant, this is already a fundamental leap in the spiritual base. If the current [Jack the Ripper] suddenly shot at the unsuspecting Yue Chen, he would definitely not be able to escape being caught. Hit fate!

"Forbidden!"

However, at this moment, a strange man's voice suddenly came from the end of the block, and in an instant, several strange charms flew towards [Jack the Ripper] who swung a knife at Yue Chen!

"———————!?"

[Jack the Ripper] seemed to feel the threat, and immediately retreated from Yue Chen at super high speed, to see if he avoided the spells that were galloping towards him——normally, according to what [Jack the Ripper] did to Yue Chen just now Chen launched an attack, this knife is a one-hit kill attack, absolutely cannot be easily dodged, and will never be retreated so easily, no matter what, it should be an established fact that [Jack the Ripper] will be attacked.

But she escaped!This fatal and flawless attack aimed at her was dodged by [Jack the Ripper] at a speed that completely surpassed the laws of physics!

"Oh my god, shouldn't I be playing some crappy oriental magician's routine? I thought it happened to be just in case that some professional families in the far eastern lands prepared a temporary tool to cure vengeful spirits. In the end, he was dodged so easily..."

The middle-aged man sighed softly, and walked out from the corner of the block. The face under the tall felt hat was a person who could make people relax their vigilance and be angry and friendly. Although he looked a little thin and pale, but that With a smiling face as warm as the sun, no matter who looks at it, it will feel very comfortable and friendly.

However, although the props he used against [Jack the Ripper] were not hit, she who was able to fight Jack with a ferocious aura suddenly retreated to a distance with a face full of vigilance and disgust, staring at him intently. Stopped the spell that had just attacked her.

"Someone came to stop again...someone came to stop [us]—" [Jack the Ripper]'s eyes became more and more dangerous, but he seemed to be concerned about the spell thrown by the middle-aged man, even if he couldn't understand What exactly was that, but her instinct was telling her that that thing was more deadly to her than the girl in front of her who was exactly like herself.

"Hee hee..." However, facing the current situation, [Jack the Ripper] suddenly raised his head, his body slowly receded towards the dense fog, and smiled foolishly at Yue Chen, "I'm sorry, Mom, [we] have to retreat first—but don't worry... [we] will definitely come back, and we will definitely return to Mommy's body..."

"Please be sure to wait for [us], mother, the only one who can return to mother's body, forever, always is [us]——"

"I won't let you touch your mother!!" Anger flashed in Jack's eyes, and he ran towards [myself] who seemed to be retreating.

"Jack, wait a minute." Yue Chen suddenly shouted.

Hearing Yue Chen's shout, the two Jacks stopped their movements and watched Yue Chen slowly walk forward and stood between the two of them.

"Mom...?" Both of them tilted their heads in doubt, looking at Yue Chen who made an unclear move.

"I'm waiting for you, Jack." Yue Chen looked at [Jack the Ripper] and said softly, "If you think I'm your mother, then I should make the end—tomorrow night, I will still Waiting for you on this street, at that time... Let everything end completely!"

[Jack the Ripper] stared blankly at Yue Chen, a happy smile immediately appeared on his face: "Well, I understand! [We] will definitely come to you tomorrow, Mom! Please wait, must wait [We] Oh!"

As the sound stopped, [Jack the Ripper]'s body disappeared into the thick fog in an instant.

"Mom...why..." Jack looked at Yue Chen with some puzzlement. Although he was not dissatisfied with Yue Chen's behavior, it was difficult for her to understand Yue Chen's thoughts.

Yue Chen knelt down and patted Jack's head and said, "It's okay, I have my own plan."

"Well, Jack will always trust you, Mom!" Jack nodded and said with a smile.

"Ahahaha, it seems that this time it failed." The middle-aged British gentleman who helped before came over, smiled at Yue Chen and Jack, and pushed his top hat politely, "Hello, This is the first time we met, a boy who came from the Far East."

"Well, hello, I'm Yue Chen. If you have to say it... Well, you can just think of me as the person who is investigating the [Jack the Ripper] incident." Yue Chen smiled and stretched out his hand to the man, "Excuse me Your honorable name, Mr. Gentleman."

"Hahaha, although you can tell it's a lie at a glance, you don't shy away from it. Please give me more advice, Mr. Yue. As for my name..." The middle-aged man laughed and said to Yue Chen, " I'm just an ordinary private detective—Sherlock Holmes, who also came to investigate the [Jack the Ripper] case, please give me more advice~ A teenager with the same purpose as me."

Chapter 9 Sherlock Holmes and the Evil of Human Nature

"Do you want coffee?"

Sherlock Holmes sat in the warm room with Yue Chen and Jack, and took out a pot of warm coffee for Yue Chen and Jack and put it on the table in front of him.

Yue Chen looked at the surrounding environment - this room should be the residence of Holmes on Baker Street in front of him, because it is already late at night, so the landlady has already fallen asleep, in order to avoid disturbing other people living here, Holmes He could only quietly bring Yue Chen into his own room.

However, although the bed, the floor, and the coffee table in this room are all very neat and tidy, there are very messy chemical experiment tools piled up on a counter next to it, which shows that the owner of the room is basically obsessed with chemical experiments all day long. The bedding and a set of silk pajamas were neatly stacked on the bed. There was no doubt that the man in front of him was the most popular detective in the world who was still talked about by people after a hundred years——Sherlock Holmes.

"Although I'm sorry, at least I hope you can be patient for now." Holmes took a sip of coffee and said to Yue Chen with a smile.

"It's okay." Yue Chen shook his head, feeling a little excited in his heart. Although the Holmes in front of him might be a bit different from the image he had imagined all along, he was still very excited to see him in person.

Holmes laughed: "Hehe, you seem to know me very well, don't you? Well... it might be better to say that there is some kind of enthusiasm in your eyes."

"Hmm...hahaha——" Yue Chen scratched his head and laughed. Holmes's power of observation has already been shown in great detail in the original work. It can be judged through a few simple exchanges and a short observation. The identity of the other party, where he just passed by, and even the specific address of the visitor, his ability to observe human beings has almost reached the peak of the times, even if it is called a monster-level observation ability.

[Indeed, known as the most talented super-detective in the Victorian period of England, even without leaving home, he has the ability to deduce a case that makes others have no clue. One of the most popular characters, Sherlock Holmes...] Kong Ming said, 【It's just that I didn't expect that Sherlock Holmes, who should be a fictional character, is actually a real character. History is really a wonderful thing. 】

"Well, Kong Ming, it's really strange for you to say such a thing."

"But it's really strange. I am confident that I will never misjudge anyone's identity, but I am not sure about your identity." Holmes said with a smile, "You can't see anything related to this era. Features, in fact, you don’t need to think about it at all. Just your clothes are incompatible with this era. They are not the clothes that any country should have. You also have a slightly different English accent and grammar from the present. Maybe you are from the future. People? Hahahaha."

"..." Yue Chen had nothing to say, Holmes had guessed to this point, how else could he explain it?

Holmes also knew that this was not something easy to explain, so he continued: "Okay, then I won't continue to ask, but although I can't know your real identity, you seem to know a lot about [Jack the Ripper] Now, as a person who is not a magician, he can calmly face the child made of wraiths, and..."

Holmes cast his eyes on Jack sitting on Yue Chen's lap, and continued, "That should be the so-called Servant, the hero summoned in the Holy Grail War and existing on the Throne of Heroes."

"Huh? Does Mr. Holmes know magicians and followers!?" Yue Chen raised his head in surprise and asked.

Holmes suddenly laughed heartily: "Hahaha, it's normal, after all, sometimes my work also involves dealing with [another world], but these are only based on my understanding of the magic world. I don’t know much about it, and I don’t really understand things that are too esoteric.”

"All in all, the battle just now was really exciting." Holmes comfortably put his feet on the soft ottoman in front of him, which was about the same height as his favorite sofa, and lay comfortably on his sofa looking at Yue Chen, "But since You already know about [Jack the Ripper], so let me begin to explain."

"Recently, I was also entrusted by Scotland Yard to investigate the [Jack the Ripper] case. After all, that child has killed several ladies in very cruel ways, and it has reached the point where it cannot be ignored." Holmes took a deep puff of his pipe, and there seemed to be a contemptuous smile in his eyes, "I laughed at those incompetent policemen when I found out after the investigation that Jack the Ripper would actually be a little girl, Now it seems that sending away the assistants they sent and acting alone is really the right choice?"

"It will be troublesome if the police know about the world over there, and I don't think the police will be able to arrest that child." Holmes exhaled a smoke ring and said with a smile. Even if you are not very proficient in learning, you can feel the absurdity of this unfolding.”

After Holmes finished speaking, he seemed to laugh as if he had heard some very funny joke, but Jack looked at the unpredictable middle-aged man in front of him for some unknown reason, wondering why he became so happy.

"Tomorrow you are going to confront [Jack] again, so before that, let's do a good job in my room and rest for a night. Although the place may be small, it is enough to rest your body and mind. enough."

Holmes stood up, stretched slightly, walked to the door of the room, took off his usual outing clothes from the hanger again, and put the tall hat on his head.

Yue Chen immediately asked, "Wait a minute, Mr. Holmes, where are you going now?"

"Go to see an old friend from the past, maybe he will be helpful with [Jack the Ripper]—" Holmes turned his head and said with a smile.

London at night is always the best time to commit crimes.

Outside under the dense fog, the visibility is almost zero, and there are very few people still walking on the street during this time period, and it is also the time when the most sleepy people are in the middle of the night. When patrolling is at its weakest.

Not enough witnesses, perfect circumstances, and the laziness of the patrolling police made the crime possible.

In one of the most secluded alleys in the Whitechapel area, a girl's laughter could be faintly heard, accompanied by the sound of something being torn apart and water splashing around.

"So happy... [We], so happy... Really happy—" [Jack the Ripper] had never seen a look of joy in his eyes, just like a child who hasn't seen his parents for a long time, knowing that Parents are looking forward to seeing her soon, "Mom is coming back... [we] can finally meet my mother! Finally - I can go back to my mother's body! [We] are so happy... very happy Very happy!"

Jack swung the dagger in his hand fiercely to his body, and in an instant squeezed out a large amount of blood from the flesh under his body, splashing it on her face and the surrounding walls. The tragic scene of the crime Anyone can feel sick.

"Today...it's the second one...but it's okay—[we] have to welcome mom...to make mom feel painless...yes, when [we] return to her body ——"

"It's such a pure and beautiful evil thought." At this moment, steady applause came from behind Jack.

"who----!"

Jack turned his head suddenly like a kitten, his sharp eyes fixed on the man who was speaking—a gentle middle-aged gentleman with a kind smile on his face, and his gestures revealed a kind of uniqueness unique to the upper-class aristocrats. His self-cultivation and demeanor, and the gentle but majestic smile on his face made him more approachable.

"Don't panic, little girl." The middle-aged gentleman said with a smile, "I was attracted by the pure desire and pure evil thoughts emanating from you, no... It should be said that the kind of you that is more than the world [Evil], which is more dazzling than diamonds, fascinates me deeply, pure, sincere, and unreservedly exudes the light of evil. Only such an existence and only such evil can make me truly embrace it. With respect."

The middle-aged man bowed slightly to Jack, which made Jack feel a little baffled, but for some reason, the child named [Jack the Ripper] suddenly felt that the man in front of him, although he was very respectful, However, he did not show any humility. Instead, he showed the restraint and majesty that an "evil nobleman" or a "criminal emperor" should have.

This made Jack wary of the man, but because of the man's powerful majesty that seemed to have the ability to lead, he instinctively wanted to give up his guard.

"However, you are still immature as [evil], so this should be my duty, little girl... No, ma'am, can you show me your face and let the next one come down to teach you, How to achieve real [evil]?”

The middle-aged man smiled, and that smile seemed to have a magical power, which made Jack involuntarily want to get closer to this man. She gently pulled out her dagger, letting the blood of her second prey tonight drip continuously along the dagger On the ground, she walked slowly towards the man, suddenly showing an innocent smile.

"If you achieve [evil]...can you make mom like [us]... even more, love [us]?"

"Of course, I guarantee in my name, little girl (the Ripper) born of a baby's resentment! [Your] crimes will definitely make [your] mothers more happy (angry), and will definitely treat you even more. pet (expletive)!"

Jack's eyes are getting brighter and brighter. Yes, she wants to learn from him. In order to meet her mother tomorrow, they must become sharper, they must become sharper, they must change I have to be more, more, more perfect [evil], if not, I am not qualified to see my mother!

"It seems that I agree." The middle-aged man said gently, bowed to Jack and raised his head again. The kind and gentle smile on his face was tinged with evil, but it made him more Very charming, "Let me introduce myself to you again, [Jack the Ripper], a murderer under the foggy night, I am an evil person who pursues evil, darkness, and the ultimate evil of human nature—the most vicious and heinous man in Britain." Badass, Moriarty, James Moriarty."

"Let me use these hands stained with extreme evil to let your human evil, which is as dazzling as a star, bloom to be more dazzling than the sun!"

The man named Moriarty—the king of the criminal world—stretched out his hand representing the evil of mankind to [Jack the Ripper].

Chapter 10 Jekyll

"Actually, it's okay even if you don't act with me, Mr. Yue." Holmes walked on the street with Yue Chen who was holding Jack in his arms. Holmes held his hat and said to Yue Chen.

Yue Chen shook his head: "It's okay, Jack's matter needs to be resolved by me, and I'm actually curious who Mr. Holmes is the friend you are talking about, Watson?"

"No, it's not Watson. In fact, he should not be involved in the [Jack the Ripper] case. After all, he is just an ordinary person, and contacting [that world] will not do him any good." Holmes said with a smile, " It should be a kind of intuition, I think he may be useful in this incident."

Speaking of this, Holmes raised his head, looked at the street in front of him and said, "We have arrived, and there are no carriages at night, so we can only feel a little bit wronged and take a night walk. It's all right."

"Well, I can hold on, should I say I'm used to it?" Yue Chen nodded.

Holmes nodded, walked to the door of a house, and softly rang the doorbell.

"It's so late, what's the matter?"

"Excuse me, Mr. Jekyll, this is Sherlock Holmes. Can you open the door now?" Holmes asked with a smile as he took off his hat.

"Mr. Holmes? It's so strange to come back to me so late." The man named Jekyll opened the door and said to Holmes with a smile.

And Yue Chen looked at the blond young man in surprise - he was wearing a black windbreaker, revealing a neat beige shirt under the windbreaker, a pair of black trousers on his lower body, and a black frame on his face Glasses, it looks very 1s... no, it should reveal wisdom and stability.

"This is..." Jekyll looked at Yue Chen and asked strangely.

"You... Hello, Mr. Jekyll, I'm Yue Chen, and this is my daughter Jack." Yue Chen said to Jekyll.

Holmes said: "They are people I just met today. Although they may be a little strange in their clothes, you can treat them as my assistants in the case I am investigating."

Jekyll nodded: "It's Mr. Holmes' assistant. I'm Jekyll, an ordinary scholar... Anyway, this is not a place to talk, so come and have a chat with me in the room."

Watching Holmes and Jekyll walk into the room one after the other, Yue Chen looked at his mobile phone and couldn't help saying, "Hey, Da Vinci sauce, this person could be..."

"Well, it should be the famous Mr. Hyde [Dr. Incarnation], the criminal gentleman with a dual personality in that novel, wandering between the contradiction between the pleasure brought by crime and the guilt brought by crime. People... but it's not a strange thing, since Mr. Holmes has already appeared, Dr. Incarnation is actually very possible." Da Vinci's voice came from the phone.

"Huh?" Jekyll turned his head to look at Yue Chen, "I'm sorry, although I'm a bit rude——Mr. Yue, I seem to have heard a lady's voice just now?"

"Well, it's actually this." Seeing Jekyll's interested eyes, Yue Chen picked up the phone in his hand, "This is a special magic ritual we use, it's used for long-distance calls ceremony."

"Magic ceremony? I see, Mr. Yue Chen is also a magician." Jekyll said.

"No, I can't be called a [Magician], after all, I am also a guy who doesn't know anything about magic. My friends who have done this."

Then, Da Vinci's projection appeared in the center of the living room: "As Mr. Yue Chen said, this is a magic ritual invented by me, the almighty Da Vinci sauce, even if it spans the distance of time or multiple worlds. A magic ritual that can communicate!"

"Hmm... I seem to have seen a very beautiful lady—" Jekyll seemed to have a shy blush on his smiling face the moment he saw Da Vinci.

"Oh, thank you for your praise, Mr. Jekyll." Da Vinci said with a smile, "I'm equivalent to the logistics staff behind Mr. Yue Chen, used to support Mr. Yue Chen's work, don't worry about me, please continue topic to talk about."

Jacky felt a little embarrassed coughing dryly, looked away from Da Vinci, and looked at Holmes: "Excuse me, then, Mr. Holmes, is there anything I can do for you to come to me this time? ?"

"Well, actually, I've been investigating the [Jack the Ripper] cases that have been popping up recently." Holmes said with the black tea handed by Jekyll.

"Huh? Jack the Ripper case?" Jekyll looked at Holmes in surprise, "I heard that it is a heinous criminal that the police are helpless, and even now we still can't find any useful clues. "

Holmes smiled and waved his hands: "If you say that creating a case that can make those incompetent guys helpless is a very shrewd case and a smart criminal, then there should be as many criminal elites in London as there are stars, but it can make me helpless." criminals, I believe there are no more than five in this world."

If ordinary people listen to this passage, it seems that they are very confident to a very arrogant level, but if it is combined with Sherlock Holmes, it seems normal.

"Indeed." With a friendly smile, Jekyll handed the teacup to Yue Chen and Jack, "After all, if there is a case in this world that you can't solve, then that person must be someone with wisdom beyond human People—so did you find any clues this time?"

"It's not just clues, to be honest, I've already met 【Jack the Ripper】." Holmes said flatly.

"Oh!? Have you found it yet?" The teapot in Jekyll's hand trembled, obviously shocked by Holmes' speedy efficiency. He then looked at the big detective in front of him and said, "Then do you want to notify Scotland Yard? I I heard that the police officers are already very busy with the [Jack the Ripper] incident."

"It's best not to let the police know about this matter." However, Holmes suddenly rejected Jekyll's words. He ignored Jekyll's surprised eyes and continued, "The resentment formed by the babies' resentment Ling, that's all I can call her, or them."
