But one day, Utterson notices Dr. Jekyll behaving strangely after asking him about a crime that happened outside Dr. Jekyll's house. He says that a young girl had been killed by a man. The police believe lat the man may have committed many crimes, but they couldn't find any clues. Mr. Utterson shows great interest in the case, only to find out that the murderer is Dr Jekyll himself.

In fact, Dr Jekyll had invented a kind of medicine that turned him into Mr. Hyde, an evil (邪恶)man. He believed that all humans have an evil side. He wanted to see if he could move the evil part away from the good part.
