26 : Old Man .
Banging on the back kitchen door surprised all the servants. Quickly, they had gotten into their killing stance. Tanaka signalled the servants to keep quiet as he opened the door.
Without hesitation, the servants quickly attacked the mysterious person without question, tying the stranger up.
"Who's the old man?" Bard asked rudely, the stranger saying nothing in return. "Who the 'ell are you old man?" Bard questioned once more. However, the stranger wouldn't answer, but only gave an annoyed look at the sound of 'old man'. Fuyuki couldn't help but stifle a laugh.
"Tanaka, ever see 'im before?" Bard asked.
"I'm sorry to say I haven't." Tanaka answered.
"Perhaps we should bring the old m- stranger..." Fuyuki corrected herself, an amused smile fighting it's way to her lips. "To the Young Master. For all we know he could be the killer."
"Right." The servants answered in response.
"Young Master!" Bard screamed as they entered the dining hall where Ciel and all the other guest were.
"We caught some suspicious looking guy!" Finny had added in.
Everyone was surprised as a middle aged looking man walked into the room, tied up.
"It's been awhile, Jeremy." Ciel addressed.
"Earl is this old a guy a friend of yours?" Lau asked curiously.
"Old guy?" The stranger questioned with a raised eyebrow. The entire time he had been in the mansion, several people had referred to him as an old man. He didn't think he looked that old.
"Y... yeah." Ciel answered.
"This man is Father Jeremy Rathbone." Ciel introduced.

"Miss Maid, it is quite unlady like to address older men by the name of 'old man'." Jeremy instructed with a pleasant smile, destroying the silence between the 2.
"Oh, I am very sorry, please accept my apology..." Fuyuki answered quickly, giving a small bow. "Ojii san." She teased.
'Note to self: Continue to address Fuyuki's faults and habits of not acting like a lady.' >:(
