Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 799 Newspaper seller at the book stand

  The modern industrial revolution has caused tremendous changes in the city.

  The characteristics of cities before the industrial revolution were the primary industry as the main industry, the secondary and tertiary industry as the supplement, and the level of urbanization was not high.

After the industrial revolution, industrial cities are characterized by a large proportion of the tertiary industry, agricultural modernization, a high level of urban development, agglomeration of population, and environmental pollution. The spiral theater for anatomical performances, the closer it is to the center, the more expensive the ticket price.

  Only when the plague breaks out, or a serial killer like Jack the Ripper appears, people will feel the disadvantage of being too densely populated.

The list of suspects in Scotland Yard is as many as one hundred people. Everyone looks suspicious. The murderers of later generations even included women on the list of suspects. The basis for speculation is jealousy, because the prostitutes have given birth. Over.

  Pomona also experienced a miscarriage. To be honest, she felt relieved. It is really not an easy task to take care of a child. It is enough to deal with Severus.

  She helped others watch children for 30 years. Molly gave birth to six. Although it was very hard at first, Molly was free when they grew up.

  Not every woman is so eager to have her own children. If conditions permit, she even wants to adopt Hermione, but Hermione may be more affectionate for her biological parents, and it is difficult for her to accept her former teacher as an adoptive parent.

   "Jack" chooses the victim at random, as long as it is a drunk prostitute, he will do it.

If the death of Anne Chapman made the "dissector" understand the physiological structure of women, then the death of Catherine Eddows was already irrational. He made too heavy a hand and had lost the kind of scalpel. Precise.

Jack wanted to tear off Catherine’s face, and it took five minutes to do this. If he really killed Elizabeth a mile away on the night of the double corpse case, and then ran to the protagonist’s square to commit the murder, he would be exhausted. blow.

Normally it takes five minutes for a normal man to run a mile, five minutes to rip off his face, five minutes to escape from the murder scene, and still in such a hurry on a dark street in the early morning, how could he spot Catherine Adols all at once and use her as a target .

  He selected her, but the police increased their patrols, and he could not determine how much time he had committed the crime.

  Rational madman will not be as reckless as a chaotic madman. He will estimate the risk of being caught, and he will do it only if he has full confidence in it.

To hide a leaf, it’s best to hide her in the forest. It took 130 years for people to wake up from their obsession with "Jack". That day, in the Muggle bookstore at the entrance of Diagon Alley, they sold about Books about Jack's five victims, but not many people buy them. Who cares about women living on the street.

  But is Catherine Eddows really a cheap prostitute?

   After Catherine Eddows came to London from Wolverhampton in the Midwest of England, she met Thomas Conway, an Irish homeless man, who got couple tattoos and sold books around the UK.

  Catherine can read and write, and recorded the narrative poems written by Kang Wei. After her death, 500 family members attended her funeral.

  She is a respectable woman, otherwise there would not be so many family members attending her funeral.

  In that era, there were many men and women who left their hometowns to live in the city due to urbanization. They came from different places and met, knew, and loved each other there. The literary and artistic atmosphere of London is not supported by a few celebrities, but also many street performers. Maybe Catherine is a teacher in the country. Not all 500 people attending the funeral are her relatives and students, but everyone has moved away. , The school couldn't go on, so she had to go to the big city.

  She should have something valuable, otherwise she won’t get a ticket, it will be enough for her to live with Thomas for a while.

Not everyone who is engaged in literary creation is as lucky as Mark Twain. He can make money by speaking. Thomas Conway is a poet, but his works are not popular. In order to make a living, he may also sell books when he sells books. Will sell some newspapers.

  The appearance of Jack the Ripper made the Devil of the Mist make headlines in newspapers and newspapers. Someone is complacent about his achievements and feels an atmosphere of fear.

  Maybe it happened by chance, maybe he bought a newspaper about himself in Catherine's hands, and he heard the ragged country woman say: "Jack the Ripper is really a shameless person."

  London is a metropolis where a person's status is judged by the level of dazzling clothes. Anyone who is despised by a beggar will feel very angry, let alone "Jack".

  If Catherine was the first target selected, then "Jack" might be following her, but there were too many police officers, and he couldn't find a chance to do it, until after Elizabeth was killed, everyone rushed there.

  He estimated the time the patrol would pass by. 15 minutes is a bit urgent, but it is worth the risk.

  So what is the trajectory of Catherine's life? Does she really have a newsstand? If so, where does she drive? Is there anyone around who saw suspicious people following her?

This is only available in the police file of Scotland Yard. The inspector asked many witnesses, but there was no fixed clue. Some people said that deliberately. They liked and liked the horrible atmosphere, and some wanted to show the limelight. He hoped that Jack was what he saw, he was a witness who gave evidence and a novelist.

In 1888, the Sherlock Holmes detective collection "Study of the Words of Blood" was published. An eyewitness even provided a freak wearing a deerstalker hat and a leather apron. The deerstalker hat is almost a symbol of Sherlock Holmes. , But Conan Doyle was not so famous at that time. This story was only published in "Beton Christmas Yearbook".

  This image is very scary. Later, the newspaper used a leather apron to refer to Jack the Ripper, so has the person who made this confession visited the newsstand opened by Catherine to buy this magazine?

  The people who solved the case at the time included two London police forces and the best detectives in the UK. Even Conan Doyle was asked to assist in the investigation. Jack not only won the Scottish Yard police but also Sherlock.

  They didn’t really care about the dead, because they seemed to have no other value to society other than showing that their lives became a serial killer.

  Because "Jack" even promoted an industry and "cultural" symbol, there must be tourists who want to revisit the case of the year, just as "Jack" brought those women's specimens to the crime scene from time to time.

  This is his "legacy". He became one of the monsters and monsters dressed up by children in Halloween. From a coward who couldn't lift his head in front of a woman, he became a synonym for "horror".

  What's wrong with Catherine who said he was shameless?

  She is a low-income group, but she has a regular lover. Because she just came to London, she didn't adapt to life in the big city, she didn't find a stable income job, and she couldn't rent a decent house.

  Dracula’s book was born in 1897. 11 years have passed since the Ripper case. The Vampire Count replaced Jack as a new symbol of horror and horror.

  Why didn’t Jack commit the crime again in order to redeem his "reputation"? "Jack" is not a zombie, he is just a mental patient, he got plagued and died.

  Or he immigrated to the New World and continued his crimes in the United States.

   Anyway, he ran away and escaped the sanctions of the human court. This gave many people a revelation: The police are not that smart. If they are smart enough, they can become a "legend" like Jack.

  Pomona received a house-elf, Shining, who had a drinking problem. She never thought of asking her how Buddy Crouch escaped from Azkaban.

  His mother died in his place. His father used his rights to sneak his son out of Beihai Prison, but he was placed in another prison.

   "Jack" may have escaped the prison and the gallows, but he did not escape the cage of "marriage" and "family". He played another person for the rest of his life.

  Perhaps he finally couldn't help but killed his wife and was sent to prison by the police.

   There is another possibility. He is so ordinary, so ordinary that people do not believe that he is the serial killer Jack the Ripper. Even if he admits it in public, others think he made a joke.

  He changed from "Somebody" to "nobody" again, as if nothing had happened, even if he dreamed back at midnight, he thought it was just a weird dream.

  She taught Cedric to learn to pretend, so as to prevent others from being jealous of him, but she seemed to be wrong to teach it this way.

  In case someday Cedric also becomes a Death Eater like Buddy Crawley, that would be shameful.

   "What are you thinking?" Severus looked at her with a smile.

   "Jack the Ripper." She said honestly, "Also, do you want to be a poet or a prince?"

   "Even if you tell me what you are thinking, I don't understand what you are thinking." Severus said, "Where is your logic?"

  "I'll tell you if I have a drink." She stretched out her hand to tidy his collar. It was not messy at all, and the shirt was white, but she did it anyway.

  There was a sudden flash of light in his eyes.

"I want to see what the bars of Padua's professors usually look like." She whispered. "I saw an evening gown in a Muggle department store. I want to wear it tonight. Don't wear it. Body."

   "What does it look like?" He asked with a nasal voice, squinting his eyes.

  "Silk, with two thin straps tied to the back of the neck, if you pull the knot, it will fall off." She said, "Do you like it?"

   "I'm not sure you dress like that, I will take you out." He stared at her like a dream and said.

   "But I want to go out." She squeezed his arm and said, "Catherine's husband is a poet, and you are a half-blood prince."

   "What?" He was confused again.

  So she began to say that she had baseless reasoning.

  If a person wearing a leather apron is caught by a housewife wearing a cloth apron, how ashamed would he be? It is best that her reasoning is not correct.

  Unfortunately, if you are too self-confident, you will be arrogant. This kind of man is too common and easy to be negligent. Voldemort is not like that.
