The vehicle was traveling very fast due to the anxious mood of its owner.
The flamboyant Ketel always likes to arrange many beautiful men and women to work in his mansion. He said that beautiful people can bring him a good mood, so his mansion is always lively.
But when Lois and Ino came here today, they found that the mansion seemed a little quiet.
Behavior that was normal for other nobles turned out to be a bit unusual when it happened to Ketel's mansion.
The two looked at each other and walked in under the leadership of the silent maid.
After walking along the fountain path, the two people came to the back garden.
Standing in the distance, I could see Ketel squatting there with his head buried in something he didn't know what he was doing.
Lois walked over quickly, "Ketel!"
The other party didn't seem to hear, and was still tinkering with the things in his hands seriously.
The two people frowned, and it wasn't until they got behind Ketel that Lois said again: "Ketel?"
Ketel suddenly came to his senses. He turned around and said in surprise: "I can't believe it. Why are you here? Or...were here together."
Lois raised his eyebrows and looked behind Ketel. It was a small green seedling that looked a little wilted. It looked like it had just been planted. Ketel was spraying water with a kettle in his hand.
"We came here to ask about Sirius." Lois did not ask and changed the subject.
Ketel stood up, lowered his eyes and sprinkled water while saying casually: "I don't know, Sirius is always like this, I'm used to it, he is always busy with his paintings, I haven't seen him for a long time ”
Ino wanted to speak but was pulled back by Lois, "Silias went to the banquet held by my father before, did you know?"
Ketel raised his eyebrows, "Huh? He didn't tell me that he went too. I didn't see him. But Sirius is a normal person and there is no need to report anything to me. You two, if you want to look for Siria As for Yas, it’s possible to go to gardens, streets, hillsides, forests or lakes, but it’s impossible to show up here anyway. If nothing happens, please come back.”
Both of them were a little uncomfortable with the shameless Kettle talking like this, but Lois was very adaptable and answered casually, "Kendick disappeared just after meeting Sirius. "
The man who originally looked uninterested immediately raised his head when he heard this sentence and said in shock: "Kendick is missing?"
Ketel dropped the kettle in his hand and turned to look at the two people, frowning and said: "No, please explain clearly, what is the situation?"
Ketel said as he walked out.
Lois was relieved to see that the other party finally cheered up. It was really surprising that the originally energetic and narcissistic golden retriever turned into such a cold and polite person.
"Silias suddenly showed up to meet Kendick in the middle of the last party. Then Kendick disappeared and never returned to his cabin." Lois briefly explained the situation.
Ketel frowned, "You mean Sirius took Kendick away?"
"It's possible." Lois spoke impeccably.
Ketel was obviously not in the mood to pay attention to Lois's circling. After leaving the door, he asked the servant to bring the horse over, then he got on the horse and left.
A carriage is naturally faster than a horse.
Looking at Ketel walking away, Ino couldn't help but frown and said, "Is this okay?"
Lois crossed his arms and said coldly: "Because it's just suspicion and there is no evidence. What identity do you and I use to find and question Sirius?"
Ino choked.
Lois glanced sideways at Ino, raised his hand and patted Ino's head, then withdrew his hand and said calmly: "It's different from what I thought was empty. It's actually solid."
Ino: "..." 6
On the other side, Ketel, who had not been visiting for a long time, suddenly came from afar. The old housekeeper, who knew the identity of Ketel and his young master's friend, quickly welcomed him in with a smile.
"Good day, Master Ketel, long time no see." The old butler waved to others to lead the horses to feed.
Ketel calmed down the impatience on his face and put on the same look as before, "I haven't seen this guy for a long time. I was worried that he would get moldy at home, so I came here to have a look. Is he at home today? ?”
The old housekeeper had long been familiar with the fact that Kettle had no expression at all about what the other party said. When he heard the question, he smiled and replied: "Yes, I should be painting in the studio at this point. If you don't mind, you can take a rest first. I Go and inform the young master for you."
"No need, I'll go find him." Ketel waved his hand and walked inside in a swaggering manner.
The old housekeeper, who was familiar with Ketel's character, stopped him symbolically. Seeing Ketel walking inside without looking back, he simply turned around and walked out.
Ketel knew where Sirius's studio was and quickly went upstairs.
The entire bungalow has two floors, and three floors including the attic. Sirius's studio is in the attic.
Although it is called a loft, Ketel, a man of nearly 1.9 meters, can still straighten his back when he walks in. It is a quite spacious place.
Pushing open the attic door, one wall of the attic is designed with glass, and there are two layers of curtains on both sides, one to block the sun and the other to block the light.
At this moment, one side of the curtain was closed to block the light, and the other side was only closed to block the sun. This made the whole room look a little dark, but it could still be seen clearly.
Sirius frowned when he heard the door open and looked over. He was stunned for a moment when he saw the person coming in, and then asked doubtfully: "Ketel? Why are you here?"
Ketel could not see such an abnormality on the surface, and said with a fake smile: "If I don't come here, I will think that you died at home. Sirius, how long have you not been out?"
Sirius said matter-of-factly, "I went out a few days ago."
Ketel smiled, "Why didn't you call me when you went out?"
Sirius's eyes seemed to narrow slightly at a certain moment, and then he said calmly: "Didn't you go to the banquet hosted by the Duke?"
For a moment, he was so calm that Ketel didn't know what to say. After a while, he was confused and said: "We were attending the same banquet. I didn't know you were coming, but you knew I was going. Don’t come to me.”
He really acted like a poor man who had been betrayed by a friend.
Sirius raised his hand and tore off the drawing paper and crumpled it into a ball, sighing: "I took my drawing to Kendick's and wanted him to judge the mermaid I drew based on him. Unfortunately, he was drunk. I couldn’t give any advice and I was just about to paint a new one.”
Sirius behaved very normally, which made Ketel frown unconsciously. It was so normal.
"What about the ornamental cage you made for the mermaid before? Maybe you can find inspiration there. It would be more appropriate if the model herself was imprisoned in it." Ketel said suddenly and abruptly.
