Chapter 224

For the viewers, it was naturally half-truth and half-lie.

All the viewers naturally knew that Hannibal hadn't just failed to save one person... just the people he was known to have killed could almost fill three mahjong tables...

[You're being modest, Uncle Hannibal...]

[This... this is half-truth and half-lie...]

[Hannibal: I admit it, I have indeed killed people.]

[More than just "killed people," it's in the double digits, okay...]

[And those are just the victims known to the police... who knows how many there really are...]

[Right, those missing persons really can't be sure!]

[Hannibal is always unintentionally whitewashing himself...]

[Will really is the type to believe whatever he's told...]

[After all, what Hannibal presents is simply too perfect!]

[Right, Will probably already considers Hannibal a close friend!]

[Wuwuwuwu, I also want to eat Uncle Hannibal's cooking!!]

But Hannibal's words to Will.

This confession was undoubtedly touching to him.

In Will's heart.

Hannibal's image was undoubtedly elevated a bit more.

Looking at the slightly guilty Hannibal.

Will spoke up to comfort him.

"You were an emergency room surgeon; these things are unavoidable."

"Too many times."

Hannibal was immersed in processing the ingredients.

"I transferred my passion for anatomy to the culinary arts. I repair the soul, not the body, so no one will die because of my treatment."

As he spoke.

Hannibal looked at Will sincerely.

His tone was filled with sincerity.

It immediately made Will nod, believing it completely.

While joking around.

Will thought of something, put down the wine bottle, and said with some regret.

"I have to go; I have a date with the Chesapeake Ripper."

"Is it the Ripper, or the Rippers?"

Hannibal asked, looking up.

Faintly trying to guide Will's train of thought again.

And Will shook his head.

"Devon is collecting organs, but he's not with the Ripper; there's no connection between them."

"Jack must be very disappointed."

"I think so."

Will nodded and said a solemn goodbye.

"Enjoy the fine wine."

"Thank you."

Subsequently.

Will left Hannibal's mansion with some reluctance.

And in his heart.

Without realizing it, he had already come to regard Hannibal as a rare friend he could confide in.

At Hannibal's house.

He could speak his mind and completely relax his spirit.

He could have Hannibal's 'treatment.'

Or rather, comfort.

Leaving now naturally brought some reluctance.

More than that.

It also meant he had to leave this place where he could relax his soul.

And once again face those endless, disgusting murder cases!

What Will found even more repulsive.

Was the obsession with the Ripper that Jack had forced upon him!

It made Will feel endless pressure!

By comparison.

Hannibal was undoubtedly an angelic existence!

And after Will left.

In the main hall of Hannibal's mansion.

All the guests had already taken their seats.

Amidst classical music.

All the guests were dressed gorgeously and properly, with the demeanor of high-society people.

Amidst enthusiastic and expectant applause.

Hannibal arrived at the head seat.

"Before the dinner begins, everyone please note!"

"There are no."

"Vegetarians here."

Hannibal raised a finger.

He said with a smile.

Then he said in elegant and standard French.

"Bon appétit."

Raising his wine glass.

Hannibal, as the host, took a sip first.

And below the seats.

All the guests' faces were filled with anticipation and excitement!

Clearly, they were incredibly expectant of the dishes at Hannibal's banquet!

[There are no vegetarians here!]

[For Hannibal, eating meat is the ultimate enjoyment! Vegetables are just a garnish!]

[These people all look so expectant!!]

[........................]

[If they didn't know, anyone would be expectant, okay!!] **CHAPTER 597**

[This is a carnival for carnivores...]

[But these are all human flesh!!]

[Having never eaten human flesh, the novelty brought by this meat must be strong!]

[They are all high-society people; no wonder Will wanted to leave; this must be uncomfortable...]

In the live stream room.

Countless viewers watched as the guests in the main hall enjoyed themselves.

The satisfied expressions on the group.

Made them marvel even more at Hannibal's exquisite culinary skills!

Relying on these dishes to conquer the taste buds of one guest after another!

And just like in the past.

The serial murders committed by the Ripper also ended without a result.

Once again becoming a cold case that the Ripper could not close.

Immediately following.

A fresh murder case occurred!

Inside the music theater.

On the stage.

A corpse had been fashioned into the shape of a cello.

The body of the instrument was stuffed into the victim's throat.

And the victim's throat was exposed, with the vocal cords revealed and filed into the shape of strings.

The entire corpse was slumped in a chair.

The killer had clearly treated the entire corpse as a cello! Wanting to play it?!

For a moment, all the viewers were shocked by the brutal and bloody scene before them.

"The deceased is named Wilson, a trombonist for the Baltimore Metropolitan Orchestra."

"He was killed shortly after the final performance."

"Blunt force trauma to the back of the head."

Jack recounted the basic situation at the scene.

And Will, contrary to his expectations, quickly entered the state.

"The killer brought him here to put on a performance."

"Will, is it my imagination, or are you seeing things more easily?"

Jack asked with deep meaning in his words.

He both hoped that Will's ability would become stronger and his speed in solving cases would become faster.

But he was also worried that Will's mindset of assimilating and empathizing with the killer was too fast, and that some terrifying changes would occur!

"I tell myself this is just a simple mental exercise."

And Will's answer was understated.

"Get rid of the feelings, start working."

"Very well, we'll come back in when you're ready."

Jack praised him, then led the investigation team off the stage, leaving enough space for Will's empathy.

Soon.

In the large stage and theater, only Will remained, facing the shocking corpse under the spotlight.

Scene by scene, step by step, the process was reenacted before Will.

Will also repeated 'himself,' or rather, the killer's crime steps.

"I cut his throat from the outside."

"Find the trachea, expose the vocal cords."

"I inserted the neck of a cello into his throat."

"There is powder in the wound; it's rosin from a cello bow."

"I wanted to play him."

"I wanted to make him make a sound."

"A sound that belongs only to me."

"This is my vision!"

And with Will's incredibly perverted and hair-raising self-narration.

His hands also touched the corpse that had been made into a cello.

The bow in his hand slowly pulled.

Subsequently, a melodious and heavy cello sound was played in the empty theater!

And off stage.

In Will's gaze.

The hallucination of the serial killer he had killed with his own hands, who had always been pestering him, was applauding him.

The scene appeared incredibly eerie!

And it made Will's face sink!

In the scene of his empathic fantasy.

These hallucinations kept appearing, harassing his sanity!

And watching Will analyze everything on stage.

In the live stream room.

Countless viewers were dumbfounded!

No one expected...

That this killer would be this perverted!!

Turning a person... alive into a cello?!

Making vocal cords into strings!

Making a human body into the body of an instrument!

This... what kind of perversion is this?!

And this killer actually wanted to use this cello made from a corpse to perform?!

To play a sound that belonged exclusively to him??

What a hair-raising and terrifying idea this is!!

Turning a person into a musical instrument and playing it!!

The ideas of these serial killers are simply more vicious and extreme than the last!
