Anne gave her and the prince's children to the hostess and ordered them to help take care of them for a day.
Knowing that Anne and the prince were abducted, Anne was forced to undergo a leukectomy and became an idiot and was locked up, but only remembered that her husband was a prince.
In order to change her fate, the heroine wrote a letter to the royal family, but it led to the royal family's brutal killing of them.
The male protagonist is a psychic detective who began to track down the murder of the ji woman one after another, the identity of the victim is the same, and the modus operandi is exactly the same, all of them are cut throats and then dig out the internal organs.
The male protagonist determined that this was not a simple serial case, but some kind of ritual
And found the heroine, the two jointly investigated the case, of course, also secretly had feelings, and verified that Anne's husband was a prince.
The heroine's sisters were killed again, leaving only her and Anne in captivity.
The male protagonist suspects that the murder came from the royal family, and sure enough, the murderer is the royal doctor.
The prince was infected with mei poison, and he felt that Anne had polluted the innocence of the royal family, so he wanted to kill all those in the know, so there was this serial case.

It is said that in order to restore the scene of the crime and the victim's wounds, the producer also referred to the photos and illustrations that had been left behind.
The film is adapted from a comic book drawn from a real case, which very completely restores the murder deeds of Jack the Ripper, so in reality, is jack the identity of Jack the Ripper really revealed and brought to justice? Let's take a look at the truth behind the movie!
< h3 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Jack the Ripper</h3>
In just four months from 7 July to 9 November 1888, there were six similar murders of women near Whitechapel in the London district.
Because of the brutality of the modus operandi, the media began to refer to the murderer as "Jack the Ripper."
Jack also wrote many provocative letters during the crime, and even left fingerprints and some of the victim's internal organs, but he was never caught, which caused panic in British society at that time, and Jack became one of the most notorious killers in European and American culture.
Jack killed a total of 6 women, only one was not dug up, the other 5 were cut throats to dig out internal organs, one was pregnant, the mother was stabbed 39 times, 9 knives were cut through the throat, and the child in the abdomen was also stabbed to death.
Some of the women, some in their 40s and some in their 20s, were killed in the dark streets, some were killed in the accommodation, and they were seen in the hours before they were killed, and all showed signs of being drunk.
Jack was arrogant, and most of the victims were found in the inhabited alleys, but no one heard anything, only the person who was found in the residence heard the cry for help.
The woman he eventually killed was only 25 years old, after which he disappeared, media interest faded, the police delayed solving the case and was criticized by the Queen and Britain, and in 1892, the police announced that the pursuit of the case would be stopped.
Jack's true identity remains a mystery and has not been apprehended.
In later extrapolations, more than 200 suspects were found, the most famous of which included Lewis Carroll, author of the fairy tale Alice in Wonderland, Prince Albert Victor, and Randolph Churchill, the father of British Prime Minister Winston Churchill.
But these are only suspects, and there is no specific evidence.
In 2002, an investigation inferred that the British Impressionist painter Walter Seeket was the famous Jack the Ripper, but this conclusion was quickly overturned.
A simulated portrait of Jack was also spent with technology through literature and features provided by 13 eyewitness witnesses.
He was supposed to be between the ages of 25 and 35, probably left-handed, 1.65 to 1.70 meters tall, skilled with a knife, familiar with anatomy, and physically fit.
Later, some people said that Jack was actually a woman, and some people determined through DNA testing that Jack was a Polish hairdresser Arun Kosminski!
But this DNA is present in 90% of the descendants of Europeans, so the conclusion that the killer was a hairdresser is once again overturned.
So even if 132 years have passed since Jack the Ripper committed the crime, Jack's true identity is still a mystery, and the longer the time goes on, the more difficult it may be to solve Jack's mystery.
Jack's deeds have not only been adapted into the movie "From Hell", but also a lot of film, television, comics, and game works.
People are actually spitting on him at the same time, but they are also afraid, but because of the continuous high-profile crimes and not being arrested, some people may admire him.
No matter what reason he killed people, such a cruel method is still spurned, although the status of the woman is humble, no one cares, but the lives of the people at the bottom should also be valued.
The movie "From Hell" is actually darker, if the murderer is really from the royal family, it is even easier to cover the sky with one hand, after all, who offends?
Well, that's it for today, and those who like the film can go and see the movie!
