Chapter 2 preface

Dear readers, here, I would like to present this story to you like Dr. Watson in "Sherlock Holmes".This story touches on one of the greatest mysteries of our time.Of course, what I'm talking about is the so-called secret of faster-than-light travel that Macaulay "discovered" and the series of murders triggered by this discovery.After all—faster than light—we all know that's impossible.Everyone knows that the laws of physics do not allow any object to travel faster than the speed of light.But our story still happened.Also, the story is about the greatest mind I've ever known—the famous, arguably "notorious" Jack Glass.The one and only Jack Glass - detective, godfather, guardian, "murderer" all in one, he has extraordinary insight into "murder" because "murder" is his specialty.So I'm going to tell the story in the form of a murder mystery, exactly (and we have to be exact anyway), three interconnected murder mysteries.

But, dear reader, from the very beginning I intended to treat you fairly, or I would not be the real Dr. Watson.So let me tell you everything, from the beginning, from before our story begins. Of these three mysteries, one is a prison story, the other is an ordinary "who is the murderer" type reasoning story, and the other is a secret room mystery.I can't guarantee that the order of the narration must be like this; but for readers, it should not be difficult to classify them according to the pictures.Unless you think every story fits the above three criteria, there's not much I can do.

The murderer in all three stories is the same man—our Jack Glass, of course—who else could it be?Is there a more famous "murderer" than him? This is fair enough, I hope you are satisfied. Your task is to read these stories, solve the mystery, and identify the murderer.Although I have told you the answer, you will definitely be surprised.If the ending of each story doesn't blow your mind, I've failed. And I don't like to fail.
