v2 Chapter 267: Quick rescue (2/2)

Zhang Heng was now worried that Irene Adler was a little too smart, and discovered the abnormality of Father Jacob, and traced it all the way to startle the latter, so he didn't plan to wait any longer.

The Sacred Heart Church was closed at 8 o'clock, and Father Jacob lived in a cottage behind the church. Zhang Heng and Holmes rushed there, but the room was dark from the window. Zhang Heng flipped the window, Holmes walked through the main entrance, and the two surrounded the hut, but there was no one inside after entering.

There was only an old dog lying on the floor, but it was so old that it was almost impossible to move. When it saw a stranger breaking in, it didn't even bark.

Holmes lit a candle, and by the candlelight they quickly glanced around the situation.

Unlike Mark Cohen's **** hut, Father Jacob's residence is a normal priest's residence, with simple decoration, and beside the bed is a Bible without knowing how many times it has been turned. There is nothing else to note in the outbuilding.

According to the witches' description, Father Jacob's usual life is also very simple ~~ can even be called a stereotype.

He is either in the church or the residence, and he will hardly go anywhere else, so it is very unusual that the church is closed, but he is not at home.

Holmes walked around the kitchen half a circle, opened his mouth to think, but ended up not speaking.

And Zhang Heng was completely indifferent to the situation over there, with the disappearance of Irene Adler, and the return of Father Jacob, the two things happened together to make the situation a little worse.

In particular, the female singer was entrusted to this matter again because he was entrusted with it. If she encounters any accident, Zhang Heng will also find it difficult to forgive herself, so he must now find Father Jacob as quickly as possible.

However, Father Jacob is obviously much more rigorous than Mark Cohen. There is no mental journey on his desk. The only note is also related to theology.

The entire house can be described as leak-proof. Zhang Heng stood at the desk, closed his eyes, and opened his eyes again after half a minute, ”Church.”

”Ok?”

”Whatever the relationship between Father Jacob and the Ripper Jack, will not change the fact that he is a pious priest. Jack the Ripper receives information from him about those witches, but as a priest, I have an obligation to keep the content of the confession confidential. I don't think he leaked it intentionally. In this case, it should be overheard by Jack the Ripper, ”Zhang Heng paused, and concluded,” there is probably a secret room in the church. , Right next to the confession room. ”

”below.”

”Ok?”

”That secret room is not next to the confession room, but below, the underground of the confession room is empty.” Holmes said, ”This is what I found during the confession. The sound of stepping on the floor was obvious. I thought it was there. There's a cellar or something. ”
