"I'm only happy because I love scaring mice every night. I'm a badass kitty" Cat Noir smirked.

"Sure you are. I was thinking of investigating the mansion again" Ladybug said.

"It's haunted by ghosts, bugaboo. My ancestors like quiet" Cat Noir teased.

"I'm not afraid of ghosts, but those bones of Gabriel scared me," Ladybug said.

"Sadly, they disappeared out of nowhere. I don't know why but I have a feeling this is bad" Cat Noir said.

"Perhaps let's do our investigation if there are any clues. Lucky charm!" Ladybug caught the item, "A magnifying glass?"

Cat Noir snickered, "Lead the way, milady detective"

They got back to the abandoned mansion and into the secret lair where the skeleton previously was laying. Cat Noir's super smell couldn't pick up a scent either like the thief didn't have a scent at all.

"This one must have been a pro," He said while Ladybug looks at where the skeleton used to be.

"Hmmm" She rubs her chin, thinking.

"Did you find anything?" Cat Noir asked.

"Hmm....was there a piece of hair before?" Ladybug found a piece of dark brown hair.

"Hmmm? This I didn't see" Cat Noir looks closer.

"Wait a minute" He sniffed it, "This smells like an Italian liar"

"What?!" Ladybug gasped.

"It has to be Lila's hair," Cat Noir said.

"That vile fox! What's she gonna do with the bones?!" Ladybug exclaims.

"I don't know. But that's not good" Cat Noir said.

"I'm really worried, Cat Noir. We better find her and get some answer. This time serious business with her" Ladybug stood up, her face hardened with anger.

"Calm down, milady. I'll find her but she's very good at lying. This is my business now. And remember, I kill bad guys. Someday you'll understand that it's better to save yourself than let a bad guy have the chance to take your life away" Cat Noir said.

"Alright. But find out what she planned to do" Ladybug said.

Cat Noir kissed her hand, "And remember, I only act cold-hearted to hide my hesitation, Bugaboo. I don't like showing my weakness"

"Alright. I gotta go scout around Paris" Ladybug said.

"Such pity that Shadow Moth is not here anymore" Cat Noir chuckled and circled her, "See you around, milady. I'm very untamed and wild you know. Still can't catch me"

"I don't need to catch you. Your princess has" Ladybug teased and swung away.

"Smooth words, Bugaboo" Cat Noir chuckled and pole-vaulted to the criminal underworld.

Once he arrived there, he searched for Lila in the area. He can smell her scent but it's too weak. He found the gang's hideout and thought of getting information out of them. He knocked on the door hard to get their attention.

"You again!" The thug saw him.

"Tell me where is Lila Rossi?!" Cat Noir lifted him up.

Before he could get his answer, he was attacked by another thug and double-punched the two, before kicking the other one over a chair. Next he cartwheel flip kicked at one thug and took his guns out, shooting two with rubber bullets.

"Enough!" The feline shouted, "Tell me! Where is she?!" He grabbed one standing.

"If I told you I'm a dead man! She's a psycho!" The thug yelped.
