Time Skip to "That Butler, Freeloader"~
Cheryl's POV~
"Damn it! This is the 20th one now!" Lord Randall yelled angrily, " You haven't apprehended the culprit yet Aberline??"

"My apologies!" Aberline replied stiffly.

Lord Randall angrily said, "Feh, and the glory of catching Jack the Ripper was stolen from us by those little brats..."

"Sorry to be such brats," I said, showing up behind them with Sahaana behind me.

"Earl and Mistress Phantomhive!" Randall exclaimed.

"Hey you two! How the hell did you get in here?" Aberline said loudly.

"Lord and Lady Phantomhive... why are you here?"

"Heh. Isn't it obvious? We're here to clean up the mess made by an old pathetic hunting dog," Ciel replied.

"What the...!"

Ciel snatches the papers for the crime out of Aberline's hands and let's me read them over.

"I see... A crime targeted only at people who have returned to England from India," I said, giving the papers back to my brother.

"I see the victims are not dead," my brother then continued, after reading the papers himself.

"Don't just...!" Lord Randall exclaimed.

"If it was just a highway man we wouldn't get involved. However we won't sit by and watch the Royal Family be insulted," my brother said, holding up our envelopes with the Royal Seal.

"The criminals are described as 'Chosen children of sloth and depravity' which is quite accurate," I said.

"We also agree that England would be better off without India's wealthily upstarts," my brother continued.

"They are cowards how were too busy with extravagance and indulged in worthless pastimes. Most of them are upperclasspeople in this so called Great Britain," Lord Randall ranted.

"Upperclass... how worthless," I said, sticking out my tongue like the paper marking.

Sahaana and Sebastian behind us were also looking through the papers for clues.

"Anyways, what is this mark?" Brother asked.

Randall shouted, "He's making a fool out of us British and the Queen! What an idiot...!! Targeting only those who return from India means that the criminal can't be anyone other than a vulgar Indian barbarian!!"

"So that's the reason you called us out here?" Big brother questioned.

"A majority of smuggling Indians have a stronghold in East Side. We can see that even City Yards don't know what to do with a dark street like East Side," I explain.

"It's hard to identify the route and exact number of smugglers right?" Ciel asked.

"So we'll make a move our own way. Sahaana, Sebastian, did you memorize those documents?" I continued.

"Yes," they both replied.

"Let's go then, Sebastian," Ciel said.

Time Skip~
Young Mistress and Master, we have arrived," Sebastian said.

"Is this place right?" I asked.

"Yes, young Mistress," Sahaana replied, "Please watch your step."

We reached the bottom of the staircase and Sebastian opened the door. A reek of an awful smell wafted through the air and Ciel and I covered put mouths and noses.

"What an awful smell," Ciel whimpered.

"So you finally found this place, Earl and Mistress. It feels kinda weird for you to see me this way, however, I always knew this day would come," Lau's voice said as we saw his silhouette.

"What kind of day is this??!!" My brother replied angrily, a tic mark in the side of his face. 💢

"Welcome Earl and Mistress! Long time no see! How have you two been? Ah, Earl, wasn't it your birthday recently? Congrats~" Lau smiled.

"I don't really care about such things. We have something to ask you," Ciel said.

"Ah! The Earl and Mistress had to come all the way to Anagura to ask me about 'that' incident, am I right?"

"The news has spread to you already? You sure are fast. We have been investigating 'that' incident," I said.

"If it's about orientals, the fastest way to find anything out is to ask you who has a strong influence around here. The president of the British branch of the Chinese trading KunLun, no. Shanghai Mafia, Qingbang executive, Lau," my brother continued.

"Meh, I don't like it when you address me that way. It's too formal, right Ran-Mao?" Lau said.

"Ciel, the air is too stuffy for me down here. I'll wait for you outside, alright?" I said, motioning for Sahaana to follow me.

"Yes, I'll meet you outside, Cheryl," my older brother replied.

I walked out of the stuffy air of people smoking opium and coughed as we reached the door. Sahaana opened the door and we walked up the stairs the lead to Lau's Dean. Only after a small while did Lau and my brother come back up. We then were on our way to walk towards the Town Home. I ignored some of the useless conversation that they were bickering about.

Then, an Indiana man bumped into my brother. I knew it was purposely since of the manga and anime. I "tched" and ignored the man, motioning my brother to just keep moving. He got the message that the Indian was faking it so we tried to move along from the crowd starting to form. The same Indian male who bumped into my brother then picked up him by his overcoat and threatened him for money.

Ciel told Sebastian to dispose of them and I told Sahaana to do the same. They then told us that they hated Noblemen and why. Then they started making more threats towards us and then Prince Soma and Agni came over asking about Mina and I just rolled my eyes. They then threatened him and then he noticed us. He asked if we were British noblemen and Ciel answered with "So what if we were?". They then said that they were taking their countrymen's side and Agni was fighting Sebastian. That went on for a little bit until we told them the truth of what their countrymen did and then Agni defeated them instead. They then left after telling us that this area wasn't safe for us.

We looked up after we heard Lau's voice on the roof on one of the homes. I sweat dropped at him as he jumped down and as Sahaana and Sebastian telling us that we had to bring the defeated Indians to the Yard.

Time Skip~
We came back to the Town Home and Sahaana and Sebastian took off our overcoats. My brother was complaining how we had to come all the way from the Manor to London because of a simple case. The staff members of the manor then welcomed us home. Lau noticed that we brought the servants this time and Sebastian and Sahaana explained why. They both told us that they would serve tea to us for warming up. Then, a infamous voice said something about Chai tea and we all looked over to the door where Prince Soma and Agni were standing.

Ciel then started complaining about why the blazes they were here and they started explaining Indian culture and such. I didn't care and told Sahaana to bring my Earl Gray tea to my room and then I walked upstairs to my room. I heard a commotion coming from my brother's room and insulting my brother on how he was short. The staff found out that he was a prince and started gushing about how he was a real prince.

Sahaana then came to my room and brought me my tea. I took a sip and complimented it. I then told her to get me ready for bed. Then, I heard my brother shout get out at the prince.
