Chapter 8, Check-in

Understood

Villac, who received no response whatsoever, did not feel any discomfort, as he had already experienced this scene before. In this life, he was not as anxious as he had been back then, but instead appeared much more composed.

Carmen, with short blonde hair and a well-defined jawline, along with Meira and Kellerman, all wore expressions of coldness mixed with disbelief as they looked at Velak. Only Julia, who sat on the right side, still young and not yet of age, with her hair tied up, displayed not only shock but also a hint of sadness on her face

The materials regarding the rebel organization in this house should have been taken away long ago, after all, Kamein would not leave such important items in a house now occupied by outsiders. However, it is possible that there are hidden compartments or other undiscovered hiding places.

The first option. He can take his time to search, as he has sufficient time.

"Mr. Fletcher, I assure you, my condition is quite good," Velak sincerely guaranteed

Although Velak woke up early, he continued to lie in bed pretending to be asleep, waiting for Fletcher to arrive. Before long, Fletcher knocked on the door, but Velak deliberately did not respond

Fletcher was quite satisfied, but still said: "I told you to go to bed early; you didn't look very well yesterday."

"You continue to take notes, and then get some rest early to recover your energy." Velak had only slept for a few hours today, and Fletcher could see that he was somewhat fatigued and not in good spirits. "I will come to wake you up tomorrow morning, and then we will have breakfast with Mr. Kamein's family."

After Velak finished washing up and got dressed, Fletcher took him to the dining room on the right side of the first floor. Mr. Kamein and the others had not yet arrived, and Fletcher explained, "Dinner is not until ten minutes from now, but since it is your first time, it is better to come early to prepare."

The second option. He might as well secretly infiltrate Kaimen's study, where he is likely to find not only Chris's belongings but also other valuable information worth pursuing

After the servants left, Fletcher said: "Once the Kamein family arrives, you must greet them one by one. After that, if they do not ask you any questions, you should not say anything."

After saying this, Velak stretched lazily, cleaned himself up, and, filled with excitement, lay down peacefully to sleep

The third type. Other places of Chris are nothing more than the office and a few frequently visited locations. These Velak are all aware of this, and there will be plenty of time to investigate later

Fortunately, none of these three possibilities constitutes a deadlock for Velak

Villac went to the bathroom to take a shower, and then stared at himself in the mirror; that was a brand new, third self

Villac approached the door, pressing his ear against it to listen for sounds. Confirming that Fletcher had left, he turned around and let out a long sigh, surveying the familiar room.

The clock hanging in the living room ticked with a "tick-tock" sound. It was unclear how much time had passed when only the clear sound of Carmen's breath could be heard. He stood up and said, "So be it."

Villac stood in the middle of the bedroom, looking at Fletcher

Villac wishes to gain a deeper understanding of Chris and Chris's connections with the rebel organization, and must uncover more clues.

Hmm? It was only then that Velak rubbed his eyes and got out of bed in a daze

Understood

Velak followed him inside

I don't know... In any case, I saw it very late and fell asleep without realizing it," Velak replied

Having organized his thoughts in his mind, Velak began to carefully search through the materials.

After speaking, she was the first to leave the seat, followed closely by Meila and Keleman, while Julia walked away, still observing Velak.

"Alright, hurry up and wash up, get dressed, and come downstairs with me." Fletcher had no intention of delving into what had already happened

Now, everything is vastly different. He will no longer be at the mercy of others as he once was, and the Chris in his eyes is no longer that frivolous young man who only knew how to indulge in pleasure.

As soon as the words fell, two servants entered from behind, greeting Velak and Fletcher respectively before setting the table.

It is like encouraging oneself, like making a promise or commitment

Fletcher cast a deep glance at Velak, appearing somewhat uneasy; however, after a few seconds, he still exited the room

The decor of the room is similar to that of the living room, bright and spacious, with an independent bathroom on the other side. The exquisite decorations, carpets, and furniture made of expensive wood, including the bed, desk, and wardrobe, are particularly eye-catching. However, in relation to Chris's preferences, the layout of the bedroom is relatively simpler.

The two individuals crossed the living room and ascended to the second floor via the spiraling stairs on either side. The corridor on the second floor was lined with countless rooms, and Fletcher led Velak to one side: "The Kamein family resides on this floor. Without my accompaniment, you are not permitted to move about, let alone enter any room at will"

After reaching the end of the corridor, Fletcher opened the door on the side of the end and walked in: "This is Master Chris's room"

The next day, July 17, Monday

As the Thomas family was leaving, Fletcher looked at Velak and said, "Let's go"

He does not hold out much hope for the possibility of hidden rooms or secret passages in the house. If there were any, Kaimen, as the owner, would certainly be aware of them, and if he knew, he would have cleared out the contents inside, rather than foolishly leaving them for Velak to discover

Understood. The seated Velak deliberately pretended to be reserved and uneasy

Although the Kamein family must have searched the usual places such as drawers, cabinets, and under the bed long ago, Velak did not let this deter him. Unfortunately, after searching for more than an hour, he still found nothing.

"Villac. Most Villac." He called his own name, "Live a different life."

"What time did you see in the brochure yesterday?" Fletcher glanced at the brochure on Velak's bedside and asked.

Then there are only three possibilities left. The first is that Chris is hiding very well, and it cannot be found in a short time. The second is that all the clues have already been collected or completely erased by Carmen. The third is that Chris's important documents are not kept in his own bedroom, but in another location

Fletcher patted Velak's shoulder and said, "Take it easy, Master Chris"

Once this matter is completed, there will be nothing else for today

Fletcher went to the window and drew the curtains: "Most of the belongings of Young Master Chris have been kept in their original places. Although you will be living here, you are not allowed to rummage through them indiscriminately"

Fletcher bowed to the back of Carmen and said, "Then I will arrange for him to stay."

Understood

After knocking on the door several times without receiving a response, Fletcher chose to push the door open and, upon seeing Velak still lying in bed, raised his voice and said: "Master Chris, it is time for breakfast"

"Please take a seat, Mr. Chris." Fletcher led Velak to a nearby seat and sat him down

He has lived here for two months, but because he has never questioned Fletcher's words, he has naively believed that Chris really died from promiscuity. Therefore, he has always kept the warning in mind and has not touched anything here
