Chapter 366 Very Anxious, Very Anxious

"The mission requirement means to capture or kill..." Xia Yanzhen said, "In other words, it doesn't require evidence, right?"

The meanings of arresting and seizing are actually different upon closer inspection.

Most people can catch a thief, but the word arrest is not suitable for use in this situation.

This is the more official term.

Only people with specific identities can be arrested, and this arrest is usually an official action.

Individuals cannot be arrested indiscriminately.

If it is an active criminal in full view of the public, if he is caught and sent to the XX police station, it can barely be regarded as an arrest.

The difficulty of arresting is obviously not small - procedures need to be followed.

So Xia Yanzhen directly focused on "killing".

There is no need to follow the procedure to kill. I am sure that you are Jack the Ripper. I will kill you and return after completing the mission.

Very simple and straightforward process.

"Yes. For you, it would be more advantageous to find the person directly and kill him." Tao E helped Xia Yanzhen analyze the best way to complete the task.

The arrest is procedurally more complicated, so why is it compared to killing?

The reason can be found after a little thought.

That's the power of Ripper.

To capture Jack the Ripper, you need evidence. If you have evidence, you can probably use the local forces in the mission world to reduce the difficulty and intensity of the battle.

If there is no evidence and no evidence can be found, you can only do it yourself.

The Ripper is probably very powerful.

If the Dream Apostle were to force himself, he would definitely be in great danger.

That's why Tao E said that for Xia Yanzhen, killing him would be more beneficial.

Why?

Because Xia Yan is so strong!

Compared to his mind, Xia Yanzhen's "fist" is his truly powerful and easy-to-use weapon.

Of course I'm not saying he's stupid. How could a person with an extraordinary memory, who was completely normal in all aspects, and who received Zhengguo's nine-year compulsory education and continued his studies, be stupid?

His thinking is quick.

However, the process generally goes like this:

Xia Yanzhen asked: "Smart brain, how should I solve this problem?"

Smart brain: "Use your fists, use your invincible fists to solve the problem."

"OK!"

He looks like a brainless fool.

Just like——

To deal with criminals, Batman needs to collect intelligence, find out their purpose, formulate a plan, use corresponding props and equipment, catch the opponent, beat him up and send him to the XX Bureau.

It took a whole night to follow the clues from the younger brother to the BOSS, and he also had to deal with other troubles such as other criminals rushing towards him.

But he is still the greatest detective and very wise.

And what about Superman?

Use your super hearing to listen, your super sight to see, use your invincible body of steel to rush over, catch the opponent out and twist them into a XX round, and it's done.

Take your time, ten seconds.

Although but...he is just tall and silly.

Tao E gave Xia Yanzhen advice, don't worry about the bells and whistles, crime scene investigation, various evidences, etc. It looks very smart and very Batman's operation.

Like Superman, kill Jack the Ripper if you can find him.

Make the most of your strengths.

"I think so too."

Xia Yanzhen's ideas coincided with Tao E's, and of course he understood him.

For his first promotion mission, he learned some detective skills and watched hundreds of episodes of Conan.

However, there is a huge gap between him and the detective.

Not only that, the mission world obviously needs to be prepared for "supernatural crimes".

Conventional criminal investigation methods may not come in handy.

Don't think about taking the route of a criminal detective case. No matter what method you use, as long as you can find the Ripper.

Based on the fist, it depends on the local conditions and the situation.

Tao E and the others discussed with Xia Yanzhen.

Later, he also put forward viewpoints such as "Jack the Ripper cannot be limited to 'people', he could also be a dog" and "Jack the Ripper may not be just a person", which helped Xia Yanzhen expand his thinking.

After a few minutes of brainstorming, the brigade members dispersed.

Go to Trading Street and look for some good equipment and props that may be helpful to the mission.

Xia Yanzhen is no exception.

If there were any divination-type equipment and props, maybe we could find the Ripper directly.

He can't use it, but Tiamat can.

The tool dragon attributes are directly maxed out.

Speaking of which, lucky dice may play a good role in this task.

On the trading street, Xia Yanzhen couldn't find any similar props and equipment, but he accidentally found a pretty good sword.

There's nothing fancy about this sword, it's just sharp and tough.

It meets Xia Yanzhen's requirements very well.

After some haggling, I bought it for thirty Dream Stones (small).

When this mission is over, it can be used to strengthen the Blood Burning Sword.

After harvesting a sword, time is running out.

Everyone returns to the brigade headquarters.

"Good luck, everyone."

With Xia Yanzhen's blessing, sleepiness came over, and everyone officially entered the mission world.

[Capture or kill Jack the Ripper]

[Task reward: five dream stones (medium). 】

[Task time limit: None. 】

[Mission penalty: None. 】

[The servant has been ‘sealed’ and can be unsealed at any time...]

[Identity has been arranged...]

After waking up, Xia Yanzhen looked at the mission information.

The identity arrangement and whether it is a confrontational killing or cooperative scene will only appear when you actually enter the mission.

Tiamat is in a sealed state just like the time at the Happy Hotel.

Release it when necessary.

Whether to seal the servants depends on the place where the Dream Apostle appears. In some scenes (not the entire mission world), Tiamat, the dragon, will not appear directly and cause unnecessary trouble.

It’s the mercy of God’s dream.

There is no scene prompt.

This means that this mission is not a cooperative or confrontational killing scene.

It was Xia Yanzhen’s mission alone—probably.

After experiencing the last mission, everyone believes that different Dream Apostles (teams) appear in the same mission world, but they are neither cooperative nor confrontational. They are far apart from each other. The situation where the king does not see the king is not completely impossible.

"Lington, patrolman at Grant Field."

The identity of the arrangement and related information are very helpful to the dream apostle.

Xia Yanzhen looked carefully and found out a lot about the place where he was.

He is in a city called Lingtong, and the overall background is the steam age——

"The Age of Steam".

The steam age did not transition to the electric age, but traveled further along this road.

Various black, thick, riveted steel monsters, or extremely exquisite mechanical creations are a unique landscape in the world.

The city called Linton is the center of the country Inver.

After entering the steam age, it continued to expand outwards, as if it were the country of Inver and was the only one.

In the city, tall chimneys emit gray-white smoke all day long.

The sky is always covered with thick clouds.

Out of seven days a week, three were cloudy, three were rainy, and one was shrouded in thick fog.

Humidity and coldness are a characteristic of Lingtong.

Windbreakers, hats, handbags, and umbrellas have almost become standard travel accessories for people who can afford them.

In Linton, you can enjoy the most exciting song and dance performances, taste the most delicious food, and enjoy the most luxurious houses.

Here are gathered the most noble nobles in Inver - His Majesty the King, the richest businessmen, the most talented artists, the most miserable poor people, and the craziest thugs and criminals!

The best of times, the worst of times.

The best of cities, the worst of cities.

This is Linton.

Xia Yan's true identity is Munster Xia, a patrol officer from Grant Field, the police station in Clinton.

The patrol officer is the lowest-ranking police officer in Grand Yard, and his daily job is to patrol outside.

There is no distinction between day and night, and there are no statutory holidays - the various festivals in Linton are the busiest and most tiring times for patrol officers.

Munster Xia's job is the "night patrol" among police officers.

There is a day off during the day, and there are twelve hours of working time from 6 o'clock in the evening to 6 o'clock in the morning the next day.

The most "miserable" position in Grant Yard is patrolman.

The most miserable thing among patrol officers is the night patrol.

For no other reason, it is easy to get injured and die easily.

At night, this huge city plunges into darkness, like a dangerous beast that may swallow people at any time.

Every morning, in the stinky ditches of downtown, slums or some dark corner.

There's always someone screaming when a body is found.

People are dying all the time in this city, and at night, even more people die because of killings.

Even patrol police are no exception.

The only good thing is that the patrol officers do not need to go to the "ghetto" of Linton for night patrols.

At least it would be a little safer.

As long as you don't meet those crazy serial killers.

Right now, there is a "famous" and "hot" serial killer in Lington - Jack the Ripper.

This title comes from the newspaper "Lingtong News".

Although it is called "Old Things", it is all news.

Jack is a popular name, just like Zheng Guo's Zhang Wei, and has no special meaning.

The Ripper was his modus operandi.

Known as the most dangerous criminal in the history of Lington.

The reason is not because he killed a lot of people or his methods were rough.

From Jack the Ripper's "debut" to now, excluding some imitators, he has killed a total of 7 people.

This quantity is not much.

Not much.

Among the murderers in Lingtong's history, he is not even a number.

In the history of Lingtong, the mad criminals who committed the most murders were a couple who owned a hotel. Because of their professional convenience, eighty-two people died at their hands.

Including those who are not sure, there may be more than a hundred people.

Of course, the official statement was even more exaggerated, with more than two hundred people - obviously some unsolved cases were directly deducted from the top reward.

There is also a "torture chamber" in the basement of the hotel, and the method is much crueler than disembowelment.

The second one was a doctor. He was finally caught and more than fifty people died in his hands.

seven people? Not even double digits.

Just open the barrel?

Compared with those crazy demons in history, they are basically younger brothers.

The reason why Jack the Ripper is so "famous" lies in "quality", not quantity.

The hotel of the hotel couple opened on the border of "slum area" and "midtown".

Those who died in their hands were all foreigners who came to Linton and wanted to find a new life.

No one in Lington knew them.

That doctor was the "barefoot doctor" in the slums. The deaths of the poor were as commonplace as the rain in Linton.

The people Jack the Ripper killed were the middle class in the middle city, the rich and even the aristocrats in the upper city.

The life of one rich man is worth hundreds of poor people.

And the life of a nobleman cannot be compared with that of thousands of poor people.

A nobleman died.

How could this Jack the Ripper not be "hot"?

The most direct result, the one that most affected Munster Xia, was that Grant Field was in a hurry. It was extremely anxious.
