1888, London.
Four million people live in this small area of just a few square miles. Gentlemen, commoners, hooligans, businessmen, and even crown princes and nobles from some small European countries... It seems that everyone likes to join this already crowded place.
At the end of the 19th century, this city of fog, which is filled with humid air all year round, was undoubtedly a city of great fortune and prosperity, an extraordinary city.
August 31st, three twenty in the morning. Two extremely extraordinary visitors have visited here, in fact they cannot be called visits, their arrival is also involuntary...
A bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the sky and hit the ground. This thunder was very strange, and it made no sound, nor did it leave any traces on the ground.
However, after the lightning strike, there were waves of chaotic and fuzzy fluctuations spreading rhythmically in that inch of the ground, and the surrounding air was distorted by a transparent and invisible force. Finally, the figures of two men appeared.
They all maintained a posture of swooping forward, and they were all facing the same target. At the moment when they saw the changes in the foreground, Wang Xu's expression was very inexplicable, but Master Mao's eyes were vacant, and the corners of his mouth twitched. twice.
They fell from mid-air, not very high, just three meters above the place where the lightning struck. Although the two of them were a little embarrassed, they both stood firmly.
"Hey, hey... where is this? Where did everyone go?" Wang Xu kept asking questions when Master Cat was by his side.
The first second Master Cat landed, he began to observe the surrounding environment. He said: "At present, there are two possibilities. First, Pei Yuan used the ability of space transfer to send us far away."
"Ah?" Wang Xu looked at the sky: "No way... It was daytime just now, and the distance he sent someone away could be as far as Europe?"
"Hey... I hope he has this ability, because the second possibility... is quite scary."
"Listen to what you mean... things have developed in a terrible direction..."
Master Mao smiled wryly: "Leaving aside all impossible factors, the rest is the answer... That's why I jumped out just now to prevent Xinglong from using the Kunlun Mirror."
Wang Xu's expression changed suddenly: "Hey...the Kunlun mirror you're talking about...could it be 'that' Kunlun mirror?" He put on a long accent on 'that'.
"Yes, it's 'that' Kunlun mirror..." Master Cat also imitated his tone and replied.
The corner of Wang Xu's mouth couldn't stop twitching: "So if that thing matches Liu Qingruo's True God Rubik's Cube, we'll fly here?"
Master Cat turned his head and looked at him: "Wow? I really didn't see it. I thought that you suddenly jumped out from the opposite side because you were as afraid of the consequences of the artifact hedge as I was. I was still thinking about your boy's recent improvement in consciousness. …
In the end, you don't know anything, do you? Then you said why did you jump out? Eh! Don't tell me, let me guess... Could it be that you and Liu Qingruo have already had an affair after only knowing each other for a few days? "
Wang Xu spat on the ground: "Bah! Don't give me too much credit! I have been tortured and tortured there for the past few days... I finally learned something about Wuhun's interior. Liu Qingruo and all of you What I know is completely different, her problem cannot be solved by fighting, if she is pushed into a hurry, the matter will really be irreversible."
Master Cat didn't seem to be listening to him at all, looking around and said: "You can explain it or cover it up, it doesn't matter... Anyway, the current situation is that the energy of the Kunlun Mirror and the True God Rubik's Cube collided, and the two of us happened to be caught in the middle, and then... use If an otaku like you can understand it, it means time travel... "
Wang Xu looked up at the sky: "It seems that this time... it's the real deal... Then let's find out the era and country here before we talk about it."
Master Cat said casually: "This is London from the end of the nineteenth century to the beginning of the twentieth century... Can't you even see that?"
Wang Xu asked back, "Oh shit, can you even see this?"
"As long as you feel the distribution of spiritual consciousness in this city, you can roughly understand the population and the scope of the city. There are so many non-human spiritual consciousness... This kind of animal is not small, almost all over the city, and there are several concentrated places, There are two possible answers, the first is that aliens have infiltrated this place, and the second... Naturally, it is the horses used in the carriage.
In the era when horse-drawn carriages were the main means of urban transportation, there was a city with such a dense population, surrounded by European-style streets and architectural styles, plus this iconic fog. After a little speculation, everything is very simple. "
Wang Xuxu focused his eyes: "Okay... you're ruthless, okay, then we should go next..." Before he finished speaking, his face suddenly turned serious: "Did you smell it?"
Master Cat started to move almost as soon as he spoke: "The smell comes from here."
Wang Xu followed him all the way into a back alley, and Master Cat said as he walked, "This is the East End of London. If I remember correctly, this place happened to be a gathering place for immigrants in this era. At night, there are homeless people everywhere." Hooligans, soliciting prostitutes, law and order cannot be peaceful.”
They soon arrived at their destination and saw the source of that smell—a female corpse.
Since there was no soul on the body, and no ghosts hovering around, they didn't have to look closely to know she was dead.
Master Cat calmly went to the corpse and squatted down, and examined it calmly: "The face was beaten until the front teeth fell out, the neck was stabbed twice, the abdominal cavity was cut open, the intestines were pulled out, and the lower body was crazy with a sharp knife jab..."
Wang Xu stood far away, he didn't want to look directly at the horrific sight of the corpse, but just listening to Master Cat's cold narration gave people goosebumps all over his body.
After the examination, Master Cat stood up: "The murderer may be left-handed, or the left and right hands are flexible, with very skilled dissection ability, and the technique of using the knife is absolutely extraordinary... Wait... Could it be..."
Suddenly his pupils constricted, he ran a few steps outside, searching for something, he didn't stop until he saw a road sign.
Then Master Cat stood there without saying a word, his eyes filled with enthusiasm and excitement.
Wang Xu walked up to him, and also looked up at the road sign, which said: "Bucks Row".
"What's wrong with you?" Wang Xu asked.
Master Cat showed an expression of excitement that Wang Xu had never seen before: "Here! That's right! It's here! In the early morning of August 31, 1888! East London, the warehouse area behind Whitechapel!"
Wang Xu thought he was crazy: "Hey... what are you kidding, why do you suddenly know the exact date here?"
Master Mao actually laughed: "Let's go quickly, I think someone else will find this body within 20 minutes, and we will be troubled if we are regarded as suspects."
Wang Xu continued to complain: "Isn't it... Now you can predict the prophet again?"
Master Mao ignored him, and just walked forward: "This is God's will! Hahaha! God's will! I have the opportunity to compete with such a legend! And it's on his big stage!"
Wang Xu didn't think he was joking, so he stepped forward and asked, "What are you talking about? Who are you going to compete with?"
Master Cat couldn't help laughing, he turned his head, his eyes still frantic: "If Cao Cao is the ancestor of all tomb robbers, then this man... is the godfather of all serial killers in today's world!"
