Harry Potter Morning Light

Bow Street Detective White Shavitt once worked under Sheriff John Fielding, son of Bow Street Detective founder Henry Fielding, who was convinced that if he could hire a group of Those who can devote themselves to the investigation and detectives with a salary can change the law and order in London, so he hired a group of Westminster patrolmen to track down criminal suspects.

He was funded by the Secret Service, which was used to manage a standing army composed of 6-8 officers. At this time, the work of Bow Street detectives was mainly to arrest criminals, and to find criminals based on the description of the victims. In the era of John Fielding, he focused on cultivating detectives. He not only identified criminals through witnesses, but also searched for clues like closing his eyes and listening to the sound of the wind blowing through the strings in the dark. Uncover the truth of the case down to the subtlest criminal details.

John’s work model inspired other magistrates, and soon courts in areas such as Whitechapel and Clerkenwell followed suit. The results of the investigation of Bow Street were also included in the evidence of the criminal court. London magistrates 35% to 40% % of the cases were filed by Bow Street.

Running detectives gradually have a formal structure, and there are rules that must be followed. For example, detectives cannot be cruel or unfair. In fact, not everyone can abide by it like John. White Shavit often accepts bribes. As long as a murder case is not filed, it will not be investigated. The standard for filing a murder case is a dead body. Without a dead body, it can only be considered missing.

This kind of behavior is very common in running detectives. Thief catchers will accidentally touch the red line of the law in the process of arresting criminals. There was once a sailor who jumped into the icy Thames River in order to escape. Unfortunately, he was very tall. He overestimated his own strength, underestimated the coldness of the river, and finally froze to death in the river. His body was not found on the Isle of Dogs until the spring of the following year.

Or there may be gang fights in the process of catching thieves. In short, if you catch thieves improperly, you will be involved. Therefore, the catching thief system involves amnesty, rewards, and informants. However, each link can easily breed fraudulent behavior. Henry didn't go into it when he was alive, and the scale of scouting expanded rapidly, and John became much stricter, resulting in a small organization. In addition, he was blind, and more people left.

John, like Henry, suffered from alcoholism, which led to his blindness. In addition to fighting chaos, he also helped philanthropist Jonas Hanway form the marine society to take children off the streets and prevent them from being harmed or joining criminal organizations.

But there is a kind of child that is difficult to protect. Before Louis XIV popularized street lamps, he thought of a way to light up Paris, which was to hire lantern bearers. There are also in London, but the job is done by young boys.

In the 1750s, there were many disappearances of little boys in Paris, leading to the Paris police chief being beaten to death by gangs. Starting around 1790, boys with lanterns in London also disappeared, but not everyone was filled with righteous indignation.

These children are missing, and they are not like Jack the Ripper who left the bodies of the victims on the street. What's more, they just disappeared, and they may have gone to factories or other places, and they will suddenly appear by themselves in two years. This era is not uncommon.

At the same time, because they come and go at night, they will see things that ordinary people cannot see. White was fired because he failed to protect a key informant, causing a criminal who should have been hanged to escape punishment, and the informant And it happened to be a boy with a lantern.

The little boy didn't want to be a witness, but John persuaded him to agree. In short, White left England and first went to the United States, where he met Stanley, who was selling threshers to Washington. Later, he returned to Europe and heard that the threshing machine was shining at the Industrial Fair in Paris, so he found Stanley again.

It cannot be said that White has an eye for money. At least he is better than Fouche and Dubois, and he will not wear the cloak of the police and do things like blackmailing casinos.

But to say that he is an upright and kind person is also flattering him. He concocted several assassin identities in a short period of time. These robbers can be manipulated as daggers for various reasons. Ba can accuse as a victim according to his own needs, just like the previous Bow Street detectives arrested criminals based on the description of the victim.

At present, White has become a special commissioner and is protected by a French army. At the same time, he is also investigating some backlogs. When he needs to send someone out to investigate, he can issue orders like a police chief.

Under the reform of Frederick the Great, wheel punishment was only used to execute serial killers and heinous people, and after the prisoners were hanged. But some people think that severe punishment can act as a deterrent, the purpose is to prevent crimes, which is different from the specimens used for exhibitions and ticket collection at the Academy of Fine Arts.

Human reason is so wonderful sometimes. After signing the document, Georgiana returned to the box and continued to watch the opera. Full of buzz.

On stage, Birdcatcher had a woman in his arms, and she beat him, then turned and walked away.

The prince came over and looked down at the fowler with a gleeful smile on his face.

Oh~ I won't say a word again. The bird catcher covered his mouth after speaking.

This is the rule of the Hall of Trials, you must keep silent, but the bird catcher can't control his mouth, first he was struck by lightning, and then he was beaten by a woman. trick.

The sun mirror has infinite magical power. It created a woman to be the wife of the fowler, but when she beat him, the fowler could feel the pain. This is not just a shadow or phantom. In addition, there was no water or food in the trial hall. At this time, three children descended from the sky. They brought water and food to the two, announced that they had passed the trial, and returned the magic flute and music box.

The prince blew the magic flute, and soon the princess heard the sound of the flute, but the prince thought she was a phantom, which was a test, and did not speak to her. The princess asked the bird catcher in a hurry, and the bird catcher learned his lesson and chose to remain silent.

The princess uttered a weeping lament, but the prince was still unmoved, and finally she left. At this time, the crowd stepped onto the stage and announced that the prince had passed the customs and became one of them.

At this moment the real princess came onto the stage, but the prince couldn't believe she was real. He thought the trial was not over yet, so he kept silent.

The parting is really sad, the prince decided to leave, he listened to the request of the Queen of the Night to rescue the princess, but when he no longer believes in the tricks of women, then what reason does he have to follow the tricks of the Queen of the Night?

After the trio sang, the scene ended, all the actors left the stage, and the audience applauded enthusiastically.

Georgiana looked at Sarastro, who was the last to leave. His gorgeous costumes always reminded her of the Sun King Louis XIV.

After he also disappeared behind the curtain, the three night queens stepped onto the stage to pay tribute to everyone. The audience shouted the names of the actors they supported, as if they were in a competition whose voice was louder.

The Lady Justice in front of the court often held the scales and covered her eyes with a cloth, and John Fielding also covered his eyes with a black belt. For a blind man, hearing is an important way for him to understand the world. But in such a noisy environment, could he hear the faint voice?

I want to go back, Georgiana said to Edgeworth.

The opera is not over yet...

Didn't you hear how it was sung in the opera? Georgiana interrupted Edgeworth. To take care of myself, I have to go back early, and I shouldn't stay out late at night.

Edgeworth had nothing to say.

Do you want to stay, Padma? Georgiana asked again.

No. Padma stood up.

Then Georgiana got up too and left the box.
