Awakening: 34-moving

The next day, Rumiko found the owner and returned the old house. While packing, I suddenly heard someone ring the doorbell.

Opening the door and looking at it, it turned out to be the long-disclosed police officer Maeda Ryutaro.

"Hello, Mr. Maeda." Rumiko was surprised.

"Hello Mumiko, I'm here to help you move. Are everything ready?" Maeda said with a smile.

"How did you know we were moving?"

Maeda just wanted to answer. At this time Zhengshi stepped out and glanced at Maeda and said, "Oh, are you here? You worked hard today."

"Nothing, I'll go and get the big stuff out first." Maeda said as he rolled up his sleeves.

"The furniture is originally from this house, so there are no big things, just some clothes and tableware. But there are many books on Hemei, which may be a bit heavy."

Rumiko watched the conversation between the two men, one big and one small, and when they were finished, she immediately pulled Zheng Zhi aside.

"Did you call Mr. Maeda?"

"Yes."

"How can you bother people like this? He is not very familiar with us." Rumiko said angrily.

"Why is he unfamiliar? Doesn't he often call you?" Zheng Zhi smiled meaningfully.

"How do you ... do you know?" Rumiko suddenly blushed.

"I also knew that he had visited you in Nagoya. He must have said a business trip by the way?"

"We have nothing to say, don't ..." Rumeizi said more and more quietly.

"Mom, Sergeant Maeda is a good person. Think about it carefully."

"But ..."

"Don't force yourself, don't suppress yourself, try to get along with him for a while. If you think he is suitable, I will talk to her about Mei, and I believe she will understand." Holding her.

"I, I know." Even after discussing this with his son, Rumiko's face could not help but turn red again.

After moving things into the new house, Maeda stayed to help with sanitation, making Rumiko very embarrassed.

After dinner, it's already seven in the evening. Rumiko went to the kitchen to cut fruit, and Hemi leaned on Zheng Zhi's shoulder while watching TV while listening to a chat with Police Maeda.

"Have you been busy lately?" Masashi found Maeda thinner than a while ago.

"A bit." Maeda is the kind of man who doesn't like to complain.

"Because of the fierce Ripper incident?"

"You know that, too." Maeda smiled bitterly.

"Although media such as television and newspapers have been blocked by your police and have not been reported, it has spread through the Internet."

"Brother, what a ripper?" He Mei asked puzzledly.

"I advise you not to know."

"Why?"

"Because it will be an appetite."

"I still don't understand."

"You ask Maeda."

Hemei looks at Maeda.

Maeda hesitated before saying, "In the 19th century, there was a case that shocked the world in London, England. There was a man named JacktheRipper who translated to Jack the Ripper. He used a very brutal method to kill nearly ten people. The belly of the victim was cut open alive. The murderer in the case we just said was very similar to that of Jack, so it was called the Ripper incident. So far we have found five victims. "

Half of the time, Maeda saw Hemei's face pale, and she didn't dare to continue.

"I told you this was a bad appetite. Is it okay?"

He Mei shook her head and said, "I won't ask if I knew it. You keep talking, I'll see if my mother can help."

After Hemei walked away, Zheng Zhi said to Maeda, "Are there any clues?"

"No. Generally speaking, serial killers like this have some special rules. Because of similar methods, we deliberately checked the behavior of Jack the Ripper. The objects of Jack's crimes have some of the same characteristics. The most obvious point is that the victims were all prostitutes with moderate or severe alcoholism, and they were all killed while drunk.

The killer is completely different from Jack except that the method and time of the crime are at night. The victims are not the same except that the victims do not know each other. The murderer appears to be killing at will. So we preliminarily determined that the killer may be a mental patient with intermittent attacks. Now we are rushing to contact psychiatric hospitals throughout Japan to see if anything has been found. "

"Are you mentally ill? Is there something special about the scene?"

"It is strange that although the victim's internal organs were pulled out of the body, they were very intact and not damaged. Its integrity is as clean as a forensic anatomy of a corpse. The professionalism of its methods gives us reason to doubt The killer has been or is currently engaged in the medical industry. In addition, the remains of Golofang were found in the nasal cavity of each victim, and there were no traces of struggle at the scene. It ’s only then. So we have initially lined up the possibility of vendetta.

"The internal organs are pulled out of the body ..." Zheng Zhi meditated.

"Can you send me the details of all the victims tomorrow."

"Sorry, I can't do this because the victim's information is confidential and I have my principles." Maeda began to regret talking to Zhengzhi about this.

Another diehard, scolded by Zheng Zhi. But I also admire this man.

Zheng Zhi had no choice but to take down the calendar on the wall and search it.

After a while, Zhengzhi raised his head and said to Maeda, "It should be kept secret, but you have to remember that if the next victim is killed on March 20th, you will come to me. "

"Why?"

"Nothing, just some speculation."

Maeda wanted to ask more questions, but when she and Rumiko's mother and daughter came out with fruit, they had to stop the topic.
