Rebirth from Conan

Chapter 139 Completed successfully?

"Why is there a woman screaming?"

Outside the door, a security guard passing by murmured in surprise.

At the same time, Xia He walked forward, crouched in front of the "woman", imitated Conan's tone, blinked his eyes and said: "Ah, I didn't expect you to look so much like a girl."

"You...what are you talking about? I don't understand you. If you don't leave, I'm going to call someone over."

"Go ahead and shout as loud as you can, if you are not afraid of being exposed."

Xia He was like a demon, with an expression that said "No one will come to save you even if you scream your throat out", and he looked at the other person with a smile and said.

There is no doubt that the "pitiful" "woman" in front of us is Jack the Ripper in disguise.

This guy didn't disguise himself, he just put some simple makeup on his face. Even his long burgundy hair was his own.

That's why Xia He made such an exclamation just now.

Similarly, perhaps because he saw that his disguise could not deceive Xia He, Jack changed his tearful expression and suddenly became extremely fierce.

"Go to hell, idiot!"

He cursed angrily, pulled out a dagger from his waist, and stabbed it into Xia He's chest with lightning speed.

However, Xia He, who had been prepared, had already pressed Jack's face and pushed him against the wooden box behind him just before the dagger stabbed him.

The wooden box containing various props shattered, Jack coughed dryly, and fell into the wood chips with blood all over his head.

"I won't let you escape this time."

Just as Xia He raised his other hand, about to knock Jack the Ripper unconscious with a punch...

"stop!"

Two security guards came out from the door and shouted to stop Xia He's behavior, "Who are you? How dare you commit a crime in the opera house?"

"This man is Jack the Ripper." Xia He explained without even turning his head, fearing that he would let him escape if he wasn't careful. "Go call the police now. It's best to notify Chief Lestrade. In addition, there's a high possibility that he has already planted a bomb nearby..."

Unexpectedly, before he could finish his words, one of the security guards suddenly interrupted him and said, "You said this beautiful lady is the Ripper? Are you sure you are not kidding me?"

As he spoke, he quietly approached Xia He's back and suddenly hit Xia He on the back with a stick.

"I think you are Jack the Ripper!"

It's no wonder the security guards thought so. After all, Jack the Ripper always targeted women. Plus, they ran into Xia and a grown man committing a crime against a "little girl" in the utility room. If there was no misunderstanding, then something fishy must be fishy.

Feeling a strong wind coming from behind him, Xia He dodged instantly and at the same time hit the security guard with an elbow, knocking him unconscious on the spot.

"Someone come quickly, Jack the Ripper is killing people!"

Another security guard immediately shouted at the top of his voice, pulled out a pistol and pointed it at Xia He.

Seeing this, Xia He's eyes fixed, and he picked up the broom in the utility room and hit the other person's wrist directly.

boom!
With a painful feeling, the bullet flew out of the chamber.

The pistol also fell to the ground.

He hurriedly tried to bend down to pick it up, but just as he bent his knees, Xia He kicked him in the chin and he fainted.

at the same time.

Wow——!
The sound of glass breaking.

Jack took advantage of the conflict between Xia He and the security personnel, crashed out of the window, and flew from the second floor to the center of the opera house's hall.

Xia He quickly took out his revolver and, with his superb shooting skills, shot Jack in the calf of his right leg as he was running towards the gate.

"what!"

With a scream, Jack fell to the ground, then struggled to get up, gritted his teeth, and continued to limp forward.

The audience who heard the gunshots suddenly became agitated at this moment.

"what sound?"

"Could it be that someone opened fire?" "Damn it, if there's a gang fight, it'll be a huge problem!"

"Hurry up and run away first."

People rushed to the door.

Seeing this, Jack tried to blend into the crowd to avoid Xia He's pursuit.

However, Xia He had already jumped down from the building, raised the revolver above his head, pulled the trigger to shock the audience, and trotted to Jack.

"Where can you run now?"

As he spoke, he pulled out a thin rope and quickly tied Jack's hands behind his back.

"Xia He?"

Conan and the others had also arrived at the scene. Seeing Xia He pointing a gun at a "woman", Yuan Zi couldn't help but move forward and asked Xia He: "What are you doing?"

"This man is Jack the Ripper." Xia He replied.

"what?"

"You said she was Jack the Ripper?"

"A murderer who only kills women... is a woman himself?"

Sonoko, the Junior Detective Team, and the three naughty kids all showed expressions of astonishment.

Only Conan, with an expression that he had expected, spoke up to explain for Xia He: "This person is not a woman, but a man through and through."

"man?"

"That's right." Conan said, walking behind Jack and prying open his palm, saying, "Also, pay attention to his right ring finger."

Hearing this, everyone looked over curiously.

Just look at Jack's ring finger on his right hand. It is nearly twice as thin as the other nine fingers.

"This is because he has been wearing the ring his mother left him since he was a child and has almost never taken it off..."

In Holmes' notebook, there are not only photos of two rings, one large and one small, but also detailed records of the identity information about Jack the Ripper that he had investigated during this period.

"The second victim he killed was named Honey Charles. Not long after she got married in the small town of Windsor, she left her husband and children behind and went to London because she had a dream. The ring was what Honey left for him when she left."

"Then..."

"Yes, Honey Charles, the biological mother of Jack the Ripper."

"He killed his own mother?!"

Hearing Conan's words, everyone was stunned for a moment.

Just because killing one's own mother was too shocking for them.

Conan went on to say: "The reason why I chose an unrelated woman as the first victim was simply to confuse the police investigation and make them think that I was killing people randomly."

"But there are third and fourth victims." Sonoko couldn't help but ask.

"That's because he had already become a true killer under the training of Professor Moriarty. He was thirsty for blood, so after killing his mother, he continued to hunt women who looked like his mother..."

As soon as Conan finished speaking, Jack, who was lying on the ground, began to struggle violently as if a wound deep in his heart had been stabbed.

"be honest."

Xia He tightened the rope.

At the same time, the police who received the news had already rushed to the scene, and after explanation from Conan, Sonoko and others, they took the Ripper back to the police station.

Just when everyone thought that the incident had ended successfully, Xia He suddenly asked them: "By the way, Noah... no, where is Sawada Hiroki?"

"Hiroki?" The three naughty kids looked at each other with confused expressions on their faces.

However, Huihara Ai said calmly after hearing this: "I just saw him running to Charlie Cross Station."
