Chapter 211

Or rather....

This is also a work of the Ripper!!

On the table.

A man’s corpse is pierced from every angle with all kinds of murder weapons, tools, and even screwdrivers!

Like a hedgehog covered in thorns!

And the woman begins her analysis:

"It was all done here, done while he was alive. He cut the victim’s throat so he couldn't call for help."

And on the side.

Jack asks:

"Do you think the Ripper did it while he was unconscious?"

"No, he wanted the victim to remain conscious."

There is no ripple on the woman’s face.

She says something that makes everyone’s heart turn cold:

"Organs were removed, not all of them; he was selective."

"He took the liver, the thymus, but left the heart."

For a moment.

Even Jack is somewhat confused:

"What did he take the organs for?"

"Surgical trophies? Is he a doctor, which is why you call him the Ripper?"

The woman is somewhat curious, but it is clear she hasn't shared the police information.

Her understanding of the Ripper is very limited.

But Jack’s eyes light up.

He asks hurriedly:

"Why would you think that?"

The FBI hasn't had any clues for so long.

But the criminal psychology genius in front of him provides a line of thought never seen before!

The Chesapeake Ripper.... is very likely a surgeon?!

But at the moment.

Jack still needs to confirm the basis for the woman’s judgment.

"Psychopaths are obsessed with the field of surgery."

As the woman narrates, all the viewers slowly begin to frown.

Seeming to think of something..

"It makes them feel powerful, the ability to make objective, emotionless clinical decisions."

"A white male? Forty or fifty years old?"

"I can't judge if he is white, nor do I know where he is from; these are things for you police to investigate."

The woman shakes her head; it is clear Jack’s words are a bit demanding.

That she can provide that the Ripper is likely suffering from mental illness and has the identity of a surgeon is already a huge breakthrough.

More information.

Cannot be judged from such a crime scene.

However, even so.

The look Jack gives her is full of appreciation.

As his intern.

As a newcomer about to step into this industry.

Being able to remain calm when seeing such a shocking crime scene for the first time is already incredible!

And to have made so many precise judgments in such a short time!

Is far beyond Jack’s expectations!!

It’s just that....

Letting an intern face a top-tier, difficult criminal like the Chesapeake Ripper right away....

Might be a bit too harsh....

【This girl is amazing!! She’s actually just an intern?!】

【She’s a genius just like Will!!】

【I didn't expect a girl to like criminal psychology.... I guess I would be scared silly seeing these corpses!】

【This performance is too stunning!!】

【But encountering such a situation on her first case.... this is the Ripper!!】

【Too amazing.... in such a short time, she provided the important clue that the Ripper is likely a surgeon!!】

【A surgeon.... it seems... I’ve heard that somewhere!】

【Most serial killers are elites from all walks of life! So that Gideon guy doesn't look like the Ripper at all! That temperament is too rough!】

【This is also because these psychopaths have higher-than-average IQs, which is why they have psychological problems!】

【Geniuses really see things from a different angle than ordinary people! But if they aren't careful, they will go down the wrong path and become psychopaths!】

Watching this intern provide clues so quickly.

While everyone feels a chill down their backs at the Ripper’s cruel actions.

They are also sighing at the intern’s stunning performance!

Surgeon....

It indeed fits the viewers’ positioning and imagination of the Ripper....

But soon.

As the plot advances.

All the viewers finally know the reason for Jack’s loss of composure.

This intern under Jack.

This criminal psychology genius, Miriam, who appeared before Will.

Continued to follow the Ripper case as her relationship with Jack grew closer.

But.

It was precisely because she followed the Ripper case.

That Miriam brought disaster upon herself!

And Miriam’s death.

Dealt Jack a huge blow!

But in his anger and madness, without the help of geniuses like Miriam, he couldn't track the Ripper’s trail at all!

At this moment.

Will’s appearance.

Is undoubtedly the police’s biggest opportunity!

But......

Just as the police began investigating the Chesapeake Ripper case again because of Gideon’s appearance.

The Ripper seemed to sense this too.

He completely bared his fangs in front of the police!

Late at night.

Just as Jack was sleeping soundly in bed.

A cell phone ringtone woke him up.

But after answering it casually.

The voice that came through made him instantly wide awake!

"Jack! Jack!"

"Jack! It’s Miriam!"

"I don't know where I am! I can't see anything!"

"I was so wrong, so wrong! Please, Jack! Please!"

Instantly!

Not just Jack.

All the viewers’ hearts skip a beat!

Miriam must have suffered the Ripper’s retaliation!

And at this moment.

Watching the police investigate again.

The Ripper also unsparingly played the recording of Miriam before her death to Jack!

This move.... can be said to be ruthless!

And soon!

The entire investigative team gathers to analyze Jack’s encounter:

"I checked all the national telecommunications databases and telephone service providers."

"Nothing!"

One team member says.

But Jack says:

"Check it again!"

It is clear that this incident has dealt a heavy blow to Jack.

And he firmly believes that what he heard was indeed a real voice!

Someone definitely called his house and played Miriam’s audio!

This point is definitely not his illusion!

"I checked it over and over! I can't find any electronic trace indicating a call was made to your house at 2:46 AM!"

"I’m telling you the phone rang!"

But facing his teammate’s rhetoric.

Jack replies word for word.

And another teammate puts forward another conjecture:

"The person who called you might have been at a phone booth outside your house, or used a community phone, so no signal trace could be found. Are you sure it was Miriam?"

"I am sure it was her voice! The Chesapeake Ripper recorded her voice before killing her two years ago!"

Jack says with an unpleasant expression, speaking very heavily and seriously:

"And last night, he called my house at 2:46 AM! He played that recording for me!"

Following Jack’s words.

The room is silent.

Others, although not familiar with Miriam, or some not knowing her at all.

But a former member of the investigative team.

A colleague who also fought to track the Ripper died at the Ripper’s hands.

Still makes them feel a sense of sigh and sympathy.

Even.

The Ripper, in order to stimulate Jack or demonstrate to the police.

Even now, two years later, used the recording of Miriam before her death!

"We know the Chesapeake Ripper isn't Gideon, because this call didn't come from the Sumindani Mental Hospital."

"And that would have allowed us to track the phone signal."

"The Ripper made it very clear."

"Someone is imitating his masterpiece!"
