MTL - Welcome To the World of Strength [Unlimited Stream]-Chapter 55 birthday party
The two came to the garden, and before they walked in, they saw a place surrounded by crowds, and if nothing else happened, that should be where the incident happened.
Jiang Yu and Shi Jun walked over, and when they approached, they heard the maids whispering.
Although they still gossip, they are a little more scared.
"It's terrible, how the Ripper came to the palace."
"My God, he actually killed the third princess! Even someone with the status of the third princess can easily do it... Then, will it be our turn next?"
"Oh...God, don't do this, I, I haven't lived enough yet."
"His Royal Highness's birthday will soon be here. Could this disemboweling killer come after Her Royal Highness?"
"How is that possible! Oh...but if it's true, then..."
Jiang Yu's concerns were different from those of the maids. She asked Zhong Yu in a low voice, "Do you think this so-called disemboweling killer is a misleading clue that popped up, or is it really related to the main mission?"
Shi Jun narrowed her eyes, "Don't worry, let's take a look at the corpse first."
The two of them quietly squeezed in while avoiding the maids.
Not to mention that the maids are discussing in a panic right now, no one cares about them for a while, even if they saw it, they probably have no reason to stop it.
After all, even they themselves had quietly observed it just now.
Although it is very likely to have nightmares after reading it.
After pushing through the crowd and entering, Shi Jun immediately smelled a **** smell, but this was not unexpected, after all, it was normal at the murder scene.
She lowered her eyes and looked over.
I saw a gorgeously dressed young woman with blond hair lying on the ground. She was covered in blood and fell to the ground. There was a huge wound on her abdomen. The blood was so **** that it dyed a large area of grass around it bright red. It looked like a livestock that was randomly discarded on the ground after being slaughtered, completely lost the nobility of life.
Jiang Yu frowned slightly.
Although she doesn't understand criminal investigation or criminal psychology, she probably knows a little bit of layman's knowledge.
Killing a princess in this way, at least to a certain extent, should be able to express the psychological appeal of the murderer.
Unlike what Jiang Yu focused on observing, Shi Jun confirmed another thing.
The so-called Ripper, if nothing else, should be related to the mission, and it might be one of them.
With a smile on her lips, Shi Jun looked at the corpse very comfortably.
It can be seen that the modus operandi in some aspects is very similar to someone in history, but...
The other party has a reason for doing that, but what is the reason for the murderer in the dungeon?
Shi Jun narrowed her eyes slightly, and probably had an idea in her heart.
At this time, a maid who had finally come to her senses noticed them and hurried to them.
"Hey, how can the guests come here, you go back quickly."
Jiang Yu asked, "What's the deal with the Ripper you just mentioned? From what you're saying, he seems to have existed for a long time."
The maids looked at each other, as if unsure whether to tell the story or not.
One of the maids said, "Have you... haven't heard of his deeds?"
Jiang Yu shook her head.
Before the guards arrived, she was idle anyway, and it was probably due to human nature. Although the maid was afraid to talk about the Ripper, she was also curious because of her fear, so she really wanted to talk about it.
So one of the maids gave them a brief introduction to science.
The Ripper Killer first appeared eight years ago. At that time, he did not have this nickname, because at that time the person he killed was a male, and the method was not to disembowel him, but... to cut off a certain organ of the other party.
But because he disappeared soon after that, no one paid any attention to it at the time.
It was not until four years ago that two more corpses were found in a forest near Wangcheng, all of them were women, and their stomachs were disembowelled, so the name of the disemboweled killer was spread.
Later, dead men and women appeared intermittently. Although the death status of the two genders was different, the title of Ripper Killer was still established and widely circulated.
But it is not known whether the Ripper Killer was too sensitive, or the guards of Wangcheng were too incompetent, so the Ripper Killer was never arrested.
Simply put, the Ripper Killer didn't appear often, so the panic caused to everyone was actually not that great, and it only lasted for a while.
But until today, when the Ripper came to the palace, the meaning was completely different.
The most honorable people lived here, and the strictest defense was maintained here. If this place was breached, everyone in the palace would be in danger.
Therefore, this is the reason why the maids reacted so strongly.
After hearing the story, Jiang Yu frowned slightly, because she really couldn't connect this matter with the mission.
Looking at it individually, these two things are completely unrelated, and it is hard not to make people suspect that this is a misleading clue that the copy was released to delay their time.
It's just... Zhong Yu doesn't seem to think so.
Jiang Yu thought for a while, her brows slightly moved.
There seems to be only one reason to explain it.
Jiang Yu and Zhong Yu withdrew from the center circle, and then she asked softly, "Is this killer one of us?"
Shi Jun slightly raised her eyebrows, looked at Jiang Yu and smiled, "Why did you suddenly have this idea?"
Jiang Yu said: "Although I don't know if the player can act as such an npc, but...it's not impossible."
"Also, the more often it seems irrelevant, there may be some connection hidden in it. I think we should not discard this clue directly."
Although there is a part of gambling in Jiang Yu's heart, but, whether it is the sixth sense honed after going through some dungeons, or some intuition, Jiang Yu always feels that this clue should not just be taken as such. let go.
Shi Jun smiled lightly, "Then have you guessed who the other party is?"
Jiang Yu hesitated and shook her head.
Shi Jun said, "Don't guess at the players."
That is to guess at the npc?
Suddenly, Jiang Yufu felt in her heart, "Could it be the princess?"
Why didn't she expect that nine years ago, this time was so sensitive!
only…
"What is the purpose of the princess, purely for catharsis? Or..."
Jiang Yu's eyes flashed, "Is this one of the factors that made her happy?"
Could it be that killing people can vent her emotions and make her happy.
And now starting to attack the third princess, one of the characters in the incident, does it mean some kind of omen?
Will they be the ones killed next?
Jiang Yu couldn't help but whispered her guess.
She murmured: "It's just that I think that even if we let her be killed like this, her happiness value should not reach the full score, so whether it is resistance or just waiting to die, the task cannot be completed."
Shi Jun looked at her with slight surprise.
I don't know if she thinks Jiang Yu is too weak, or the other party grows too fast, to be honest, this time Jiang Yu is able to detect this so keenly, which makes Shi Jun a little surprised.
She thought it would take some time.
Shi Jun bent the corner of her lower lip happily, without hiding anything.
"I think, yes."
Although the other party gave affirmation, is there anything Jiang Yu wants to understand.
For example, why can you get happiness simply by killing people?
There must be something else in this that she has overlooked.
Murder motive?
Jiang Yu bent her fingers against her lips, thinking silently.
Then, she thought of the maid's description.
Jiang Yu paused slightly.
"Could it be... the princess killed someone for the first time because that man wanted to treat her..." Jiang Yu twitched her brows, and then denied, "But no, if this is the case, then the princess was the first to kill her." The one who should do it should be among us, the player who plays the role of buying the princess."
Shi Jun smiled lightly, and then said, "You overlooked one thing."
She raised her eyes, "Gender."
Jiang Yu frowned, understanding what she was referring to. "But I think... since we have all played a certain role, then age, gender, etc. should not be based on our real identity."
Just like her identity is Ansel's daughter, she should be younger than the rest in theory, and the role of the floral shirt is a gem merchant, and she will be older than them.
But these are the roles given to them by the dungeon.
Shi Jun smiled, "Then why do you think the princess didn't resist at the beginning, but then suddenly killed a man?"
"And why Ansel let her go."
"Why can usury sell the princess so confidently?"
Jiang Yu lowered her eyes and fell silent after thinking.
Shi Jun didn't intend to force her to think it over now, after all, she still had some clues that she didn't give Jiang Yu.
Shi Jun bent her lower lip, "Why don't you think about it again, why do you want to open it?"
Jiang Yu frowned.
Soon, the guards arrived, and they separated the corpses first. One of the guards, with sharp eyes, glanced at the people present, and at the same time, he also noticed Jiang Yu and the others.
"Everyone, I'm sorry for what happened in the palace. To some extent, this is indeed our lack of supervision.
But on the other hand, I suspect that the Ripper may have the ability to disguise himself, and he may be hiding among the crowd. "
In fact, this is just a judgment, after all, the chief guard has no evidence.
Moreover, the third princess seemed to have been dead for a while, and the time between death and the discovery of the body was enough for the killer to escape.
What's more... At that time, the maids in the garden were gathered together in a mess, and it was not difficult to escape while taking advantage of the chaos.
If we were suspicious, to be honest, the chief guard was even more suspicious of these few guests who came to the palace.
After all, the Ripper had never appeared in the palace before, and as soon as they came, the Ripper came.
After hiding his suspicion, the head guard said: "Now, please accept our investigation."
Unsurprisingly, all of them as guests—not just Jiang Yu and Shi Jun who were present—were invited to investigate and question.
