Tonight is such a lucky night for me. I get to read the latest translation of Kuroshitsuji chapter 40 and it's all thanks to Bleach Asylum. The guys there are so wonderful. I simply can't live without my monthly dose of Kuroshitsuji after all. (^_~)
In this chapter, after the discovery of Georg's murder, everyone in the mansion arrived at the murder scene, with Ciel being the last to enter. Irene managed to point out that the room was locked while the murder is committed, hence turning the case into a locked room murder. This is churning out into a Sherlock Holmes style of crime scenes and I am loving it a lot.
Ciel proceeded to explain how a locked room murder can be achieved with the use of a needle and thread. Yet eventually as he was unable to produce any alibi to separate himself from the crime scene, he was placed as the number one suspect. As a result, he was chained to Arthur in order to make sure that he would not try to commit another murder again.
That tender loving scene we saw of Ciel's family is truly endearing when he recalled how he used to be so scared of thunder that he crawled into his parents' bed to seek comfort. My heart aches when he said that now he has no one to stay by his side. Apparently Arthur thought the same way as he patted gently on Ciel's head in an effort to comfort him.
The focus then shifted to Sebastian as he went back to the murder scene to clear the hearth, as instructed by Ciel. Somehow Ciel knows that there is something hidden in the hearth and Sebastian is the only one who can check it out, being a butler and all.
Yet when Sebastian was checking out the hearth, a mysterious figure appeared behind him and appeared to prepare to strike Sebastian. That's when the chapter ends and leaves the reader hanging for more.
Yana sensei is so good at creating the mystery and suspense for this current arc and I am so looking forward to the next chapter. In my opinion, I believe the murderer could be Irene as the most innocent person is usually the most suspicious person too. I wanted to guess Arthur as the murderer but seeing this arc is written from his perspective, he can't be the murderer at all.
So for now, I can only wait till 18 January 2010, when the next chapter comes out in the next issue. The case won't get solved that fast but I'm sure Yana sensei will present us with more clues to decipher the case.
