In the documents, there was the picture, it looked exactly like Jack, and the name in that picture was "Jack Edmund Reid".
"So... you are Reid??? THAT REID?" Ethan for a moment lost his composure, and he yelled out to Jack. After seeing his disbelief for a moment he stopped and apologized "I beg your pardon, Sir Reid. I must confess that I never anticipated encountering a figure of your legendary status in this place."
Jack immediately noticed Ethan's suspicions and as Good Detective he immeditely acted "AAghhh, My head" He lost his balance, and Ethan immediately caught him "Are you okay Sir!!! Sir!!! SIR!!!" He slapped Jack a few times.
"Water!!" Jack pleaded with Ethan.
10 Minutes Later.
Jack was sitting on the table outside of the library of documents, he was inside Ethan's room, this place was just like he expected, nothing too much, wooden floor and ceiling with a table and chair in the middle of it, there was just one couch there that had mattress or something like a blanket over it, there were countless documents on the table, it looked like Ethan hasn't gone home for a long time. he had water and hot tea in his hand as he was drinking it with much favor.
"Art thou well now, sir?" Ethan was sitting next to Jack and he changed how he talked to Jack immediately after hearing who he was, Edmund Raid was a legendary name in London, one of the most famous detectives in England.
Jack smiled and told Ethan "Yes, i am okay, it looked like i needed a little push to remember everything, i am alright now"
"That is well, may i introduce someone who can escort you to your residence, Mr. Reid?" Ethan suggested this.
Jack smiled and nodded he stood up and pulled his hand out, he said "Thanks for your hospitality Ethan, i will not forget this, i discovered two things today, i have terrible alcohol resistance and good people are still in this wretched world, i hope we meet again" He smiled kindly.
Ethan was shocked for a while and then laughed boisterously "Ha ha ha! You are indeed correct. It was a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Sir Reid. Should you have any inquiries in the future, feel free to approach us." He stood up and shook Jack's hand.
Jack nodded and left the room.

Outside of the Police station.
Jack simply went towards his car and sat on it.
"Puffff.." He took a deep breath and...
"Holy... HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT HOLY SHIT!!!" Jack immediately lost all of the calm appearance he had while talking to Ethan, he was breathing heavily as he had sweat all over his body.
He couldn't believe he was a Famous Detective Edmund Reid, he didn't even know how he time traveled here and now he found out he was a legendary figure like this?...
"Calm down, Calm down. Calm Down." Jack took deep breaths and calmed his heart down, He then looked over what happened since he time-traveled in this timeline.
"Okay... okay, let's see, i was investigating Jack The Ripper case that was posted by someone extremely rich, few other top detectives took this old case but none of them found even a little clue that wasn't known to the public, then i was hired to find the clues... then..." Jack Remembered all the clues he found out. all the hidden files that were stored in the bunkers of the National England Library.
"After i found the secret message from the unknown officer about Jack The Ripper i was extremely close to finding out the real identity of the killer, but i was killed before i had the chance to decipher that message..." Jack thought about this and suddenly he remembered.
"I see. the case, that's my only lead, i hope i will find out the truth if i take the case." Jack sighed and said this.
Jack thought about this and decided to go home. he remembered his location from the files that he saw before, and from his photographic memory remembering the location was easy as it could get.

Jack was standing in front of the enormous mansion, he looked at the gates in a stupor, he bearly know the history of this Jack Edmund Reid but he didn't expect him to be this rich.
He sighed and opened the gates with quite a difficulty.
Inside the gates was a big castle-like walkway. but for some reason, most of the trees and flowers here were wilted and withered. everything was dark and gloomy.
Trees were wilted and flowers that should have some buds in March were fully dark, this place was probably not used and flowered correctly for 10 years at least.
"What the hell did this guy do to make his home this gloomy, this place looks like the House of Dracula from the novels, let's see the interior" Jack frowned at this, he didn't like the bleakness of this place, as an artist and a painter he was irked how this place looked.
CREAK!
Big wooden doors opened with a creaking noise.
"COugh!! Cough!! Cough!!" All the dust flew up to Jack's nose immediately after opening the doors.
"Shit!! just how many years has it been since someone lived here." Jack looked at the luxurious interior of this castle, this seemed like some sort of castle from the outside and inside as well.
Jack turned on the switch that was near the entrance.
Bzzzt!
A small chandelier lighted up with yellow light, it looked like this was the only type of artificial light this timeline had.
Jack got excited after seeing how decorated this place was, he was quite a perfectionist so beautifully carved jade floors and beautiful paintings that were everywhere here interested him greatly.
This looked like a castle that only kings would have, greatly decorated everywhere, it had some modern features like lights in many places and what looked like some ancient AC from Jack's perspective, overall not counting dust this was a really beautiful place to live, Jack Edmund Raid was probably depressed for some reason for almost destroying this place with no care at all.
He smiled and went towards the living room.
This room had a big fireplace and a fluffy couch next to it, Jack fired up the fireplace with some wood near and looked at the closet. Jack opened the closet and saw different types of clothes exactly his size.
He was extremely tired from this long day, so he just took pajamas and went towards his bedroom.
As he went up the stairs he looked at the rooms in this castle, they were glorious, but almost all of them were filled with dust.
"I can't believe this guy was so rich he could afford this place or inherit it and he let it be this underused, i would at least hire some butlers and maids to clean this place, looks like i will have to do it in the future, but for that... let's just rest" Jack opened the door of his bedroom.
Jack's emotions were in turmoil almost all day, he was new to this timeline and the heart he forged in the past with many battles was shaken, he needed a good rest to concentrate and look at the world even more clearly.
He knew this was just the start of his Journey in this Timeline and he would experience more things, he needed to be ready for everything in this unknown world he didn't know just yet.
bedsheet was dusted so he just threw it out, everything inside was good, Jack didn't even look at the room as he fell on the fluffy pillow and went into the dreamland...
he didn't even notice a blue screen appearing in the air that said.
