"What's the matter, sir?"

The coachmen were very puzzled:

"Anything else?"

"I have to run a test on you—"

"There are still tests? Haven't we all been checked, are we all free of blood?"

"That's true." Lin Xinyi's tone gradually became firm: "We have done the occult blood test, and there is indeed no blood on your body."

"but…"

He looked past the suspects and looked at the carriage behind them:

"Where's your carriage?"

"If the murderer came out in a carriage to commit the crime, then there must be blood in his carriage!"

"This..." The coachmen looked at each other with innocence written on their faces.

They still didn't seem to be intimidated by Lin Xinyi at all.

And Lestrade leaned into Lin Xinyi's ear with a puzzled look on his face:

"Master Lin."

"What's the use of checking the carriage?"

"We have seen those carriages, and they are very clean inside."

"It's very clean, and there may be invisible blood." Lin Xinyi replied calmly.

"I understand, but..."

Lestrade couldn't help but continue to question:

"But in today's case, Ms. Elizabeth was not killed in a carriage."

"The murderer was alarmed by witnesses and fled before harvesting the internal organs."

"In that case, how could it be possible to find blood on the carriage?"

Elizabeth died in the open street.

There was no carriage with her when she died.

If Jack the Ripper didn't get blood on himself when he killed, it's even less likely that he would bring the blood back to his carriage after he escaped.

That being the case, what's the point of doing the occult blood test on the carriage?

Even if Jack the Ripper was among the eight, there would be no blood in his carriage.

"No, maybe there will be!"

"In today's case, Jack the Ripper didn't get any blood on his body, and he didn't disembowel him, so he won't bring the blood of the dead back to his carriage."

"But, don't forget..."

Lin Xinyi paused slightly, and reminded in a subtle tone:

"Jack the Ripper is not the first time to commit crimes."

"He had killed two innocent women in a row before, and he disemboweled the deceased in an extremely cruel manner, and took out a large number of internal organs from the deceased."

"These internal organs were all brought back from the scene by him."

"It was brought back on foot."

"Or did you use transportation?"

"This..." Officer Lestrade's eyes lit up.

Although he was not professionally qualified, he seemed to see the shadow of his old friend Holmes in Master Lin.

Recommended, it's really good, it's worth pretending, after all, you can cache books and read aloud offline!

"Master Lin, what do you mean..."

"The murderer committed the previous two crimes, and he may have come out in today's carriage."

"He may have used that carriage to load those bloody human organs?"

Officer Lestrade understood what Lin Xinyi meant:

Luminol not only detects occult blood, but also detects occult blood that was formed long ago.

But Jack the Ripper mostly commits crimes in the middle of the night when no one is around. When he packed the "trophy" home, he probably wouldn't be so careful about "packaging" on the way.With so many viscera and organs, blood must have flowed all over the car.

Even if you wipe it off after you get home, there will still be invisible traces of occult blood left there.

"If that's the case, then in the carriage that belonged to the murderer..."

"It will definitely detect large pieces of occult blood!"

Lin Xinyi left the eight coachmen behind and put them under the strict supervision of the patrolmen.

Then, he seized the time and began to inspect the carriage.

There was nothing unusual about the first few cars.

until one of these:

After spraying the prepared luminol reagent inside the carriage with a watering can, a large blue light suddenly lit up in the dark carriage compartment.

The blue light reacted by luminol is actually very weak, and the duration is not long.

Trace inspectors often need to cheer up when using it, pay attention to discovering occult blood in time and take pictures to collect evidence-otherwise the light may be too weak, and you will miss it if you don’t pay attention.

But right now...

The blue light emitted from the carriage actually illuminated the dark room brightly.

You don't need to pay close attention to it at all. If you look around casually, you can see the faint blue blood light emanating from the upper and lower sides of the dark carriage.

This is proof enough that there is a large amount of potential blood in this compartment.

The wide distribution and large area of ​​the bloodstains can be called shocking.

It seems that this is not a carriage carriage, but a mobile slaughterhouse.

"found it."

Lin Xinyi heaved a sigh of relief.

The gaze of Officer Lestrade next to him also became sharper in an instant.

They turned to look at the eight suspects in unison:

"Whose carriage is it?"

There was a silence in the air.

The atmosphere became tense.

The patrolmen who were in charge of guarding the coachmen quietly tensed up.

They looked at the eight coachmen with vigilance, creating an oppressive aura virtually.

Finally, in this seemingly frozen air...

An ordinary-looking, unremarkable young coachman stood up:

"That carriage is, is mine."

"catch him."

Lin Xinyi didn't confront the suspect at all, and issued an arrest order directly.

The patrolmen moved when they heard the sound. Some of them reached out to press their guns, some took out their handcuffs, and they were about to rush forward in almost a second.

"and many more!"

The young coachman was crying out:

"There's blood in my carriage."

"But, but... this is not the blood of some murder—"

"I drove a physically injured client to the hospital a few weeks ago."

"These bloods flowed down halfway when he was riding in my carriage!"

"This..." The patrolmen froze.

Even Officer Lestrade hesitated to stop, and looked at Lin Xinyi with some concern:

"Master Lin, what he said seems to be right!"

"Even if we found bloodstains in the carriage, it would not prove that these bloodstains belonged to the victim."

"Maybe the truth is what he said..."

"Is it just the blood of a wounded passenger?"

"Hehe." Lin Xinyi smiled lightly:

Indeed, Lestrade was right.

In 1888, humans did not even discover the structure of DNA, let alone DNA identification technology.

Without DNA testing, there's no way to be sure the bloodstains came from Jack the Ripper victims.

Lin Xin's accusation against the young coachman was simply untenable.

No one was quite sure if he was Jack the Ripper or an innocent coachman who had just had some bad luck.

The coachman's self-justification is almost incomprehensible in this day and age.

And Lin Xinyi himself is not sure...

Even his previous reasoning of "determining that the deceased rode in a carriage during his lifetime through silk and wool" was all based on trying to figure out the mind of the person who wrote the question, and guessed it.
