(Two chapters combined into one update)

...

When he saw Jack the Ripper's name, Kino couldn't help but smile: "Is that him? Our first leader?"

Past blinked: "You have a problem with Jack?"

"It's not that I have any objection, it's just that I've read the case files about Jack the Ripper. His method was to chop at the vital points indiscriminately, often leaving the dead in a mess, without any sense of beauty. To sum it up in three words -" Kino

Her amber eyes narrowed into crescent moons with a smile, "Unprofessional."

"Of course people of that era can't compare to little scoundrels like you~" Chou Xiang poked Chino's forehead and showed a playful smile, "But I have to correct you, it's not 'him', it's 'them'.

"

Kino whispered: "They..."

Past nodded: "Jack the Ripper is not a person, but a group of people."

Kino thought thoughtfully: "I have heard of this statement, but there has never been any substantial evidence."

In the past, he took the dice and tossed them up and down to play: "In short, this group of people took advantage of the underdeveloped criminal investigation technology at that time, and the exhaust gas emitted by coal-fired factories and residents was difficult to spread, forming a long-lasting smoke in the foggy city, and they secretly took turns to commit crimes.

But he was never caught.”

"In the end, they tasted the joy of being the god of death, established our current organization, and turned taking human lives from a hobby into a commercial one. Later processors all developed on their basis."

"And this ten-sided die belongs to the most astute and powerful one among them, who is also known as 'Jack the Ripper' to the public, and later the first generation leader. And it is worth mentioning that it is not 'him', but 'her'

'.Jack's popular image is male, but in fact he is a female."

If such words were spread outside, they would definitely be complained about or ridiculed, but when spoken in the past, they seemed extremely reliable.

Kino asked with great interest: "Does this ten-sided die mean anything to her?"

Xiang Xiang slowly said: "It is said that the first leader Jack had some extremely persistent belief in God and firmly believed that he was God's chosen one and enjoyed His blessing."

"Before every action, Jack will ask the dice a question, ask someone else or himself to say a number, and then report the number and roll the dice."

"If the number reported is the same as the number shown on the dice, it means that the gods are sure of it."

"If the two numbers are different, it means that the gods deny it."

"Based on the previously spoken questions and the answers obtained by rolling the dice, Jack will decide whether to take action."

In the past, he threw the dice on the table, covered it with his hand while it was spinning, and said mysteriously: "Will I be caught if I go out to commit a crime today? Give me a number."

Kino casually reported the number: "9."

When I opened my hand, the number on it was also 9.

"Like now, Jack won't act because the numbers match, which means that the gods have affirmed Jack's question - he will be caught." Xiang Xiang took back the dice and explained, "It is said that she used this method to avoid

There have been several roundups. What’s even weirder is that the roundup plans were all secret and there was absolutely no possibility of them being leaked from within. They were also extremely carefully arranged. Once she commits a crime, there is zero possibility of escaping.”

"But it was such a coincidence that she used the dice points to perfectly escape these round-up plans. It seemed that there was some unknown force helping her. In this way, the case of Jack the Ripper became an unsolved case in the world.

"

Kino: "Do you believe the authenticity of this kind of thing? Don't you think this is just a foolish rumor of that era?"

In the past: "I actually don't agree with this kind of strange power and chaos, but the ultimate development of science is theology. I don't deny that there is some kind of... mysterious force in the laws of the universe that we can't understand for the time being."

"Of course, I can't answer whether Jack the Ripper was really protected by this power. After all, I hadn't created it yet."

Kino took the dice and saw a dog tied up in the corner of the restaurant. He said casually: "If I touch that dog now, will it get bitten? 5."

The dice is thrown, rotates and settles, showing 4.

"Phew~" Qi Qi whistled, "The dice say you won't be bitten."

Kino stood up and walked towards the dog tied up in the corner. It was a pit bull, not very tall at the shoulders, but with huge muscles.

This kind of dog is a well-known fierce dog. It has no pain-sensing nerves in its skin and has a very strong bite. It is often used for hunting or kept for show by some people who like excitement.

The pit bull was raised by the owner of the restaurant. It was holding a cow bone and gnawing on it. When it saw Chino approaching, it immediately raised its head and stared at him. Low threats kept erupting from its throat, its nose was wrinkled, and there was clear saliva.

It keeps dripping down the canine teeth.

"Hey, hey, hey..." Kino kept making funny noises to the dog, and reached out to touch its head.

"Roar——" The pit bull suddenly jumped up and bit Kino's palm directly. The sharp canine teeth instantly penetrated the palm and back of the palm, tearing it bloody, showing its ferocity.

The restaurant owner was frightened, but he was not worried about Kino, but worried about his dog... After biting the smiling devil, can the dog's life be saved...

The boss hurried over, kicked the pit bull aside hard, and then said to Chino in a trembling voice: "I'm really sorry... Mr. Chino... we will compensate you for your medical expenses at a hundred times the standard..."

After the boss finished speaking, he grabbed the dog by the scruff of the neck, pushed it to the ground and whipped it wildly: "You don't want your life, you little beast, let's see if I don't break your dog's legs today!"

Pit bulls have no pain in their skin and cannot feel pain when being beaten. However, forced by the majesty of their owners, they still tuck their tails between their legs and make a grunting sound.

Kino pressed the wound with a tissue and showed a friendly smile: "I'm sorry, this is my fault. I shouldn't disturb the dog when it eats, so don't punish it."

After a few polite words with the boss, Kino wiped the blood and returned to his seat, shaking his head helplessly: "This dice seems useless."

"Didn't I tell you all? Those things are 'rumors'!" Chai Qi smiled angrily, "And even if the rumors are taken seriously, the record states that this dice is only useful in Jack's hands. If an outsider holds it, it will be useless."

It’s really just an ordinary dice.”

"So, I am more inclined to believe that it is not the dice that has mysterious power, but Jack himself. The dice is just a medium."

Kino laughed angrily: "Then why didn't you tell me earlier??? I was bitten in vain..."

"I didn't do anything, I just thought it would be fun for you to be bitten by a dog~ It hurts, it hurts, don't pull my ears! Those are high-tech bionic ears, one costs 10 million!" Chai Xiang yelled and patted Chino's hand.

, finally managed to break free.

Kino suddenly thought of something and asked: "By the way, Jack should be dead, right?"

I rolled my eyes in the past: "People from the late 19th century, do you think they are dead or not?"

Kino: "If I follow her..."

"I love you! Save me! Save you first!" Chigai shouted the mantra to save his life.

Kino smiled helplessly: "I mean, if she and I were born in the same era, who do you think would be more famous?"

"How did I know that..." Qi Qi rolled his eyes and said lazily, "She is the serial killer who plunged the entire fog into a bloody panic and is known to everyone in the world, Jack the Ripper."

"You are the top processor who has completed the most orders in the history of the organization and is the most feared by the trappers, the smiling devil."

"I just want to say - give others a way to survive! You two were born in the same era, and the people of that era were too unlucky~"

...

After chatting with the past and eating something, Kino went back to his hotel.

When the time comes the next day, return to the main world on time.

After Kino came back, he finished his work and walked to Nicole's bedroom.

It is now 9 o'clock in the evening. Nicole has a very regular schedule. She never goes out to drink and get drunk like Lugo and the others do at night. Instead, after dinner, she reads swordsmanship books for an hour, practices swordsmanship for an hour and a half, and then takes a shower and rests.

.

Such a strict self-discipline must have been developed in the royal city.

"Dong dong dong." Kino knocked on the door gently: "Niko."

With the sound of light footsteps, the door opened.

I saw Nicole wearing pure white rabbit fur pajamas. Because the fit was very loose, she looked round. Her long hair was a little messy from sleeping, and there was a bunch of stupid hair sticking up. It was delicate and cute, which made people endure it.

I can't help but want to rub it.

Kino made a sound before knocking on the door, but Nicole seemed to be in a sleep state and didn't realize that she was still wearing pajamas. When she realized what she was doing, she was so embarrassed that she hid behind the door: "I'm sorry, sir... I'll change."

Clothes..."

"Yes." Kino agreed and waited outside the door.

There was a rustling sound in the room. Nicole didn't keep Kino waiting for a long time. She quickly put on her daily clothes and walked out: "Is there anything I can tell you?"

"Come to the training ground with me." Chino took the lead and went downstairs.

The two came to the training ground. Kino took out the light and heavy sword from the space ring and handed it to Nicole: "I have thought about it and this is the most suitable weapon for you."

When Nicole took the heavy sword, her hand suddenly sank. She obviously didn't expect it to be so heavy, but she was still a reserve imperial guard and an extraordinary person who had awakened the power of the sun. Even though she was shaped like a little rabbit, she could carry it with one hand.

It's no problem to pick up a strong man, and a 42kg epee won't take much effort for her.

Nicole held a light sword in her left hand and a heavy sword in her right hand, looking a little confused: "Sir, do you want me to learn to dual-wield? I have seen many dual-wielding swordsmen in the palace, but Dinisha said that this method is not suitable for me.

, and...why are the specifications of these two swords different?"

"I'm not asking you to learn ordinary dual-wielding. The essence of a dual-wielding swordsman lies in his special fighting posture. He uses his left and right hands to use a set of combat skills to defeat the enemy with an airtight attack. This kind of combat skills is really not suitable for you.

"Kino pointed to Nico's double swords and said, "I want your left and right hands to be independent and learn two completely different sets of combat skills."

Nicole muttered: "The left and right hands are independent... two completely different sets of combat skills..."

Kino: "I told you the reason why you are not suitable for the standard long sword - your height. No matter how hard you try, if you learn mainstream swordsmanship, your congenital height defect will seriously restrict you. So you must be different from others.

"
