Episode 265: Rather than poisoning [3]
"hey."
It was detectives who blocked the road.
Regardless of the era, isn't it true that the impression of violent crimes detectives is… in fact, difficult to distinguish from organized crime?
"uh……."
The handsome cook was also surprised when three such men blocked his way.
Of course, there was something different about him compared to people living in 21st century Korea, so he immediately took on a fighting stance.
“I told you I did nothing wrong!”
Have any of the bereaved family members or acquaintances of the deceased ever come to visit? They even shouted out these words.
No, maybe it's just something he said for people passing by to hear.
In fact, London has been overpopulated for a long time, so there were a lot of people wherever I went, and it is not much different now, so there were already people approaching me.
“Hey hey.”
"why?"
“It’s the common people and Liston… … .”
“Ah… … This is crazy… … .”
However, everyone who had confirmed Liston and I had turned around and disappeared back the way we had come.
Since everyone recognized us, it seemed like everyone who was trying to help had disappeared.
“This is crazy… … .”
The cook also lowered his fist as soon as he saw me and Liston blocking the back.
“Please, spare my life!”
No, I got on my knees too.
'what?'
'This is how it's usually done.'
'No… … Isn't this unusual?'
'No, everyone is like this. Think about it. London is so unsafe that if you suddenly meet someone like this, wouldn't you get down on your knees?'
'Are you kneeling, brother?'
'Kneel down.'
Yeah, well… … .
I looked at my brother who couldn't understand, then quickly turned to the cook.
The detectives had already approached and were tying up the rope.
Then they revealed that they were police officers.
“Don’t worry too much, we’re going together because we have something to investigate.”
“Please, spare my life… … .”
“I said I’m the police.”
“Why are the police hanging out with the gangs!”
“Gang… … There must be some reason for that.”
“No, not our gang.”
It didn't really work.
It was because of us.
That's because strange rumors are spreading everywhere.
How can people who save lives be called gangsters?
Are you going to live with this injustice?
“I guess you got it.”
“Ugh.”
“No, why are you coming out of the darkness? You look like a real gangster.”
“It’s a gang now, you know.”
The chief was really enjoying this situation.
He was a police officer by name, so he was big, but when he suddenly appeared in a dark place wearing black clothes and a black hat, he looked like a real back alley big shot.
“Don’t even think about running away.”
“Please, just let me live… … .”
what…….
It wasn't all bad.
Because I was being dragged along obediently.
It seemed as though he had no intention of running away.
Well, even for someone like me, with the detectives at Liston, I think the only thing I'd want to do would be to go without any pain.
Oh, and be prepared to drink urine and feces.
“Uh… …Really the police?”
“That’s right, that’s right.”
Besides, it was a misunderstanding that would be quickly resolved.
Why don't you just go to the police station?
Of course, that didn't mean the chef's face would relax or anything.
That's because 19th century police stations are very different from 21st century police stations.
In some cases, the police were actually more frightening than the gangsters.
There are cases where a rat or bird dies and flows into the Thames River without anyone knowing… … that's not unheard of.
“Please sit down first.”
"yes yes."

That's why there was no incident like going to the police station and causing trouble like you see in dramas.
why?
That's absolutely true.
First of all, the detectives, that is, the police officers, are wearing clubs on their waists.
It's not for self-defense or for show, it's a really practical weapon.
How many times have you seen me swing that thing?
That's right, 100% of people will die.
“Since when have you been cooking?”
"yes?"
“Since when did you start doing this?”
“Ah… … . It’s been a long time.”
The message was that I had no choice but to cooperate with the interrogation.
But that doesn't mean that something comes out all at once.
First of all, 19th century interrogation techniques were not very advanced.
and…….
“But what should I ask?”
“I don’t know either. If we ask everyone, something will come out, right?”
“By the way, is it really true… that that guy killed someone?”
“I don’t know about that either. Well… … since that’s what a layperson would say… … it wouldn’t be just ordinary words, right?”
Above all, the interrogators are hesitant.
Not only that, but so did Liston.
“Really… Is that guy the culprit?”
“Isn’t that why you brought him here?”
“No, I did it because you asked me to.”
"that……."
It's like he's an accomplice in a crime.
But, well… … I guess that might have actually happened.
It's strange to believe that just because you sold Joseon a little bit, it's true.
“First of all, there are no symptoms… That person doesn’t have any at all? And they said he had diarrhea, patients. Usually, diarrhea lasts for over a year, right?”
"that……."
In addition, the concept of a carrier is too difficult not only for the general public but also for Liston.
There are people who have the fungus, and it is continuously multiplying inside them, but they do not have any symptoms… … .
How on earth do you convince someone who thinks it's a miasma and not a fungus?
'also…….'
As soon as I thought, 'What should I do?', a method magically came to mind.
little…….
I feel a pang of conscience, but… … .
Well, I say it over and over again, but we've come too far for that now.
And if we don't catch this guy now, there's no telling how many people he's going to kill in the future.
“Oh, sir.”
As I was organizing the methods I had come up with, the chief approached me.
He had a slightly serious expression on his face.
“Yes, Chief.”
“No matter how much I interrogate him… … hmm. He’s just such a nice person.”
What a nice person he is.
Since he's a good person, he'll do his best to make delicious food, right?
More people will get sick?
That won't do.
'Looking at the patient's symptoms… … the rumor that it was poisoning wasn't for nothing.'
Yes, it's typhoid fever.
He said he was in pain.
I have a fever.
He said he suffered from diarrhea and abdominal pain towards the end.
Even though we live in an age where we can't detect germs…
Even though there are so many hints, it is shameful, shameful, for someone who has become a college professor, to not be able to make a diagnosis.
“It wasn’t easy to prove anything in Joseon either. In fact, I still don’t know why.”
“Hmm… … Is there any way?”
“Are there any prisoners on death row now?”
“Do you think there will ever be no more death row in London?”
Well, it really is a world where there are a lot of people to kill.
In fact, even among those who were not specifically sentenced to death, there are many who really deserve to die.
In addition, the government wants to carry out executions periodically.
Because the citizens like it.
I understand that too.
London…….
It is a city that cannot be said to be a good place to live for the common people, even in empty words, so shouldn't there be at least that kind of joy?
“Then let’s have that person cook and feed it to those people.”
“Huh… …? Cooking? What kind of food can I cook for these guys who deserve to die?”
“This is just my guess, but I think miasma is appearing, whether it’s from that person’s hand or something else.”
“Uh… … Is that so?”
“That’s what happens to people infected with miasma.”
“It’s not that person, is it?”
“Could it be possible that there is only miasma proliferation without any symptoms?”
“That… I’m not a doctor so I don’t know, but is it possible?”
The chief looked at Liston instead of me.
Liston shrugged.
Normally, that would be a turn-off, but Liston is a man crazy about experiments.
“There is no proof… … If you think about it, it was not proven at all that miasma could come out of a corpse or a patient until we started the experiment.”
“Then… … should we give it a try?”
“Yes. Aren’t they all death row inmates anyway? Let’s target the worst ones.”
“They are all evil, so they are on death row.”
“Well, that’s true.”
“The thing about me is that I have to do something called ‘cooking’ for those who deserve to die.”
ah…….
As I listened to the conversation, I realized that I was still not very 19th century-ized.
Whoa, the experiment wasn't that creepy.
Of course, that doesn't mean there was no way.
'How do carriers spread the germs… … .'
Surely it wouldn't be released through sweat?
If you were thinking that way, I hope you hit your forehead and reflect on it.
Well… … I guess it wouldn’t really be like that if you’re not a medical professional.
There is a saying in the medical world:
'Fecal to oral.'
It literally means 'from shit to mouth'… … .
You may think it's dirty, but in reality, many diseases spread this way.
There's a reason why they say you have to wash your hands after taking a shit.
Of course, it would smell and be uncomfortable, so I would wipe it… … .
From a medical perspective, wiping is done to remove bacteria that are present in the stool.
'Perhaps… … The reason why people didn't die quickly despite the presence of that chef… … It could be because he's a carrier and doesn't shed much germs, but it's also because he works in a wealthy household and he washes his hands with water before cooking.'
In the first place, British cuisine… … .
I don't even know if I should call that cooking.
Anyway, I don't think it will take that much work.
The point is, you just have to apply what is discharged.
“Umm… … .”
“Phew… … Are you going to do that again?”
So I told him what I thought.
The idea was that the cook would provide his own excrement, and we would use that excrement to prepare food for the prisoners.
But both the chief and Liston had angry faces.
“That’s a bit… … .”
“Are they really that bad of guys?”
The detectives had similar faces.
“What are you going to do with my poop?”
Above all, the chef was the most disgusting.
“I’ll just cook for free.”
“I told you, I don’t need to cook, just give me poop?”
“How can that be!”
“They’re going to be killed anyway.”
“Even if you go when you go… … How can you do something like that? And why is it my poop? If you want to feed it to me so badly, why not just feed it to me, teacher?”
“My shit can’t kill people.”
“My poop is like that too!”
“No, I’ll kill you.”
“Hey, police officers. Help me out!”
I tried my best to convince her logically, but it was no use.
“Hmm. What can I do if it comes out like that? Just tell them to cook it for me.”
Even Liston comes out like this.
I think you can check it right away if you just apply some poop.
'Brother. Is it not okay to kidnap poop?'
'No, I don't want to.'
Even shortcuts have become impossible.
Well, I could bring it… … .
Isn't that a bit much?
“Is that so?”
So we agreed that he would come home from work and cook for me.
Oh, I didn't just send it like that.
“Chef.”
"yes."
Somehow I feel like you've been acting a bit cocky since a while ago…
“Before cooking at Baekjakga, always wash your hands. Even if you have to go to the bathroom, hold it in and come here to do it, then just cook.”
“Please stop… … .”
After making a reasonable offer, I sent it to him.
