Kuro 152 Summary & Thoughts

その執事　別動

That Butler, Independent Action

In chapter 152, we return to the side of O!Ciel, except we follow the actions of Meylin and Ranmao.

Meylin and Ranmao are headed for North Yorkshire, a place 211 miles away from London. Once they get off the train, a man with a humble carrier arrives to collect them, asking whether the ladies are the ones who had come to apply for the position of maid as advertised in the newspaper. Before long, they arrive at the mansion of Baron Heathfield.

Without further delay, the ladies are taken to an older woman who is in charge of employing new staff, Miss Abby. Meylin and Ranmao introduce themselves as Mei and Ran, as a pair of Chinese sisters.

They are asked why they had come to England, and “Mei” explains that she and her sister had come to England with their father on a tea clipper when they were young children. She further explains that disease had robbed them of their parents, and afterwards they worked as maids in London. Unfortunately, the trading company of her former employer had gone bankrupt and fled, deserting the servants. Now having lost their job, the sisters had come to seek new employment.

Miss Abby seems somewhat suspicious as to why the sisters had come all the way to a deserted place from London, a place with many more job opportunities.

Meylin explains that it is because only the current household accepts coloured servants under the age of 30. As she explains however, the older woman notices Meylin’s imperfect English, and “graciously” not reproach middle-ranked servants for having a foreign accent. “Can you two read?” the woman asks, and Meylin replies that they have basic understanding. With this, “Mei and Ran’s” contract has been signed.

“Thank you very much!” - Meylin

“We need anybody we can get” - Abby

At Miss Abby’s words, as though on cue, Meylin makes it unambiguously clear for the reader that she is on a ‘special mission’ in this household.

As “Mei and Ran” are being escorted to their rooms, the maid by the name of Jane explains that there is a shortage of staff because the manor is very large. At present, there are 35 employees, among whom 20 are maids. At this information again, Meylin seems to think something is up.

Once in their new rooms, Jane explains the rules of the household, among which a particularly peculiar one: “Lights-out at 22:00, a strict rule to which all must abide strictly.“

Mei questions the abnormally early hour, and Jane explains that this is the well intention of Lord Heathfield; that all servants should be well rested and well taken care of. Among other ‘mercies’, the servants are obliged to have three meals a day, bathe once every two days, and will even get large carriages arranged for them to explore the streets on their days off.

The Heathfield household does not provide for uniforms; instead, Meylin and Ranmao change into the maid-dress which they brought from ‘their previous employment”, the Phantomhive maid uniform!!

Without further ado, “Mei” is assigned the position as housemaid, while “Ran” is made a laundry-maid. In order to familiarise the new employees in the household, Jane takes the two ladies on a tour through the house.

“Let’s go, Ran” - Mei

“Yes, sister” - Ran

Herewith, chapter 152 comes to an end.

Chapter 152 was rather uneventful; it functioned more like a very long introduction to a new sub-arc. Though uneventful, the location does provide for very interesting open possibilities.

It is most unlikely that the Heathfield household is just any place. Conceivably, O!Ciel deliberately sent Meylin and Ranmao there, exactly because they are persons of colour, and can use England’s institutionalised racism to their advantage: “who would doubt “stupid, coloured women” anyway?”

Another important clue to the future developments of the story may lie with the location of the current setting, and the name ‘Sutcliffe’.

As pointed out by some in the Japanese fandom, the new setting Yorkshire is a place once linked to a notorious name: Peter William Sutcliffe - the Yorshire Ripper.

The Yorkshire Ripper case did not take place until the 1980s, but the fandom is well aware of Yana’s love for references to real historic events (and some time anachronisms).

If I should entertain this highly interesting hypothesis, then it is perhaps possible to say that the Heathfield household is one of the ‘bases’ for R!Ciel’s blood-supply, which could be an indirect reference to the serial murders of women in the 1980s.

The coincidence of Grell’s surname ‘Sutcliffe’ to the location should probably also not be written off as ‘sheer coincidence’. We have previously seen that Grell and Othello are both involved in the current case. Perhaps we can expect some major actions by Grell, Meylin and Ranmao in the next chapters.

Les dejo estas traducidos, no hice más ya que flojera.

Parece ser que OurCiel al fin ha puesto en movimiento su plan, Mey-Rin junto con Ran-Mao se han infiltrado como sirvientas en la mansión del varón de Heathfor.

I leave these translated, I did not do more laziness.

It seems that OurCiel has finally set its plan in motion, Mey-Rin along with Ran-Mao have infiltrated as maids in the mansion of Heathfor's male.

Chapter 152: That butler, Separate Action

"From the train window, in the third class room"

The time to turn off the light in this house is at 10 pm

I will be strictly observing them

En la parte puse exactamente, fue mi error en realidad es "estrictamente".

We have changed

I think that's the way it is, it actually said something like "I've changed my clothes" but I put it in the plural when translating

Mey-Rin: Let's go

Ran-Mao: ​​Understood

Mey-Rin leaves the Phantomhive house. Start a new service life...

Mey-Rin: Scars of the Past

In chapter 152, we see scars on Mey-Rin’s arms as she puts on her uniform.

Perhaps we are due to learn more about her past much like we did with Finny back during the Green Witch arc.

SQUEEEEEEEE

KURO SPOILERS CH. 152

[thedarkestcrow]

Ch. 152: A Source of Blood?

So in the latest chapter Mey-Rin and Ran Mao are going undercover as maids to work in the manor of a Baron Heathfield:

The name Heathfield hasn’t appeared in the manga so far and the location is quite a distance away from London. However, so was Bath which was also a spot relevant for the Blue Sect’s doings. And since our Ciel’s allies are currently investigating the sources of real Ciel’s blood demand there’s a good chance that this Heathfield manor is also related to that.

I suppose one of Sebastian’s or Lau’s investigations lead to this manor which is why Mey-Rin and Ran Mao are infiltrating it now. So maybe this Baron Heathfield helps Undertaker and real Ciel by providing them with blood or he might at least be one of their sources. There could be more spread throughout England in order not to draw too much attention. 

There were a few things that kinda felt suspicious. The maid, Jane, mentioned that they’re always short-staffed.

And apparently they are searching for maids in quite a wide area if they even advertise in London, more than 200 miles away.

With these relatively good working conditions mentioned later it’s a bit weird that they wouldn’t find servants easily unless they always need more because some are disappearing?

Speaking of working conditions, Jane mentioned that Baron Heathfield insists that the servants get enough rest and food. 

That sounds suspiciously similar to what happened during the events at the Blue Sect where the blood of the people was being drawn. Rest and food are important for someone donating their blood.

So maybe after lights-out...

...the servants’ blood is being taken, either forced or maybe even voluntarily in exchange for money or good working conditions.

Maybe that’s why they wanted to hire people under thirty because they’re probably more healthy which makes them better blood donors. And maybe that’s why Jane watched Mey-Rin and Ran Mao get dressed in order to judge their physical health and whether they would be suitable to give their blood, as well...
