Archenemy Get Married's

Chapter 3: The Thousand Face Reaper

A week after the matchmaking event, as usual Aldo doing his activities. Committing a criminal act, namely killing one of the state officials.

The name of the officer was Tony. Based on information from his client, Tony has committed acts of corruption that harm many parties, including the people of the country. And what's more, by interacting with Tony, Aldo will be one step closer to his target. Whether that's Aldo's target, only he and God know.

Looks like Aldo's job this time is fairly easy. It could be seen clearly, as the one moving this time was only Aldo alone. But, do not forget Taka who helped him from the headquarters to secure CCTV.

Without the slightest sin, Aldo came out of a famous hotel room with his disguise as a hotel employee. Entering the elevator casually, walking out through the hotel lobby, then disappearing into the darkness of the night in the city.

Really - really professional. No one was aware of Aldo's actions, not even the trace of Aldo was seen in the slightest.

The death of the corrupt official was only known after his mistress entered the room. Seeing Tony lying lifeless with a knife stuck in his chest, the woman screamed hysterically. Instantly, everyone who happened to be there approached him and rushed to call the authorities.

It didn't take long for the authorities to arrive. At that very moment, the position of the floor of the hotel room of the corrupt official was immediately secured and sealed with a distinctive police line.

The police forensics were busy analyzing Tony's body there. It is alleged that Tony was killed with a knife stuck in his chest.

"Hows it? Are there any leads there?" ask a woman who looks like their leader.

The man being questioned shook his head. "No, Miss Rikka."

It turns out that this woman is Rikka. She was wearing the typical clothes of an intelligence officer with a charming span skirt that made her waist look very sexy.

Rikka did not respond to the interlocutor. Just shut up and stare at Tony's corpse intently.

"There are no special features, fingerprints, or things that lean towards the clues, Miss Rikka!" continue the opponent speaking.

Rikka nodded. "Okay, thank you!"

Then Rikka stood up and walked towards the window and then down the window with the aim of looking for clues.

"Even in the window there is not the slightest trace!" his hiss while touching the window with his hands that were equipped with gloves.

"Shasha, what about the CCTV?" Said Rikka asking her assistant named Shasha.

"The Bureau of Analysis is working with the hotel to check the CCTV, Ms. Rikka," said a beautiful, sweet-eyed woman named Shasha.

Rikka nodded in response to her subordinate's words.

"Mom Rikka?" Shasha called out as she walked closer towards Rikka.

"Yes?" sahut Rikka brief.

"Is this the Thousand Face Reaper thing?" whisper Shasha.

Rikka nodded. "I think so too."

"Because judging from all the evidence in the CTF, everything is exactly the same as the murder case of the last Gino diplomat!" continues explaining.

"There are no distinctive features, fingerprints, or other traces," he said.

Shasha who saw her superior was thinking hard just kept quiet. Because he felt that it would not be much help if he continued to talk.

Then, two people from the Intelligence Analysis Bureau came to the room along with a detective who helped with their work.

"Miss Rikka!" call the detective, while Rikka just turned her head with a gaze hoping for a clue to be found.

"Come with us to the monitoring room!" detective says.

"Okay, Detective Andro!" sahut Rikka was followed by Shasha who walked behind him.

On the way to the monitoring room, Rikka and Andro had a little chat.

"Thank you for fulfilling my call, Andro!" rikka said while walking.

"Come on, that friend's been helping his friend, right?" reply Andro.

"You're right .. once again thank you!"

Andro glanced towards Rikka. "Because you insist, well ... thanks again!" he said accompanied by a smile.

Apparently, Andro was a trusted friend of Rikka's. Because according to Rikka, Andro is one of the best detectives he knows. Andro has solved all kinds of cases such as murder, kidnapping, theft, and so forth. And what's more, it turns out that Andro was Rikka's friend during High School.

The burly man seemed to have special feelings towards Rikka. But no one knows how to feel. It's just that, every time the handsome and neat man glanced at Rikka, her glance seemed to contain a certain meaning.

"What about your match?" whispered Andro suddenly but looked indifferent.

Rikka was a little surprised, and a red tinge instantly emanated on her smooth cheeks.

"Please ... don't discuss that here, we're at work!" cetus Rikka quits talks he deems unimportant for now.

"Alright," Andro replied lightly as he shrugged both of his shoulders.

A few minutes later, they arrived at the monitoring room. Then, Andro immediately asked the officers who were there to show CCTV footage that he considered abnormal.

"Look, Miss Rikka!" said Andro professionally while pointing towards the glass screen.

Rikka's eyes follow the direction of Andro's index finger. But he just kept quiet and watched.

"I feel like there's something weird about the tape at eight past eighteen minutes."

"Let's watch ... right in the twentieth second, like there's a break separating this tape!" resolutely continued.

As Andro said. It does seem there. Right in the twentieth second, the recording was like blinking. Although the blink looks faint, but if observed carefully, then anyone will certainly be able to realize it.

"You're right!" said Rikka who is still paying attention to CCTV footage.

"Hey, try showing the footage the day before, a week ago, and a month ago separately!" andro's orders to one of the CCTV officers.

"Good, sir!" reply with firmness.

Shortly after, look through three glass screens CCTV footage requested by Andro just now.

"You can see it here. The footage yesterday, a week ago, and a month ago was very smooth .. even if you speed it up a few times!" andro began to explain.

"While specific to this one," Andro points to the footage on the day that Tony was murdered.

"There's a strange wink that's bothering my mind!"

"Is there a software expert here?" chirped Andro suddenly.

"You mean this CCTV footage was hacked?" Rikka said confirming her conjecture.

"Maybe .. but that's just my hypothesis!" reply Andro.

Shortly after, came a softwere expert from the Intelligence Analysis Bureau who had just returned from the toilet, "There can be help, sir?" said it.

"You try to do an analysis on this hotel's CCTV software. Then, analyze this strange CCTV footage!" Andro's orders again.

"If it's like you said .. can we find out who the killer is, Andro?" rikka asked back.

"Entah ... This is your case anyway, right?" Andro answered with a smile.

"I'm just helping out here. If we can figure out who the killer is, only you can do it!" andro continued to assert.

"Believe yourself .. We all know who is the most genius here" he continued, patting Rikka's shoulder gently.

Rikka blushed a little, then smiled at her high school friend, then walked up to the officer who was analyzing the hotel CCTV software.

"Do the analysis from last week," Rikka said to his men from the Bureau of Analysis.

"Good!" sahut the officer,

after five minutes, the officer said, "Already Mom, there doesn't seem to be a problem with the software."

"Then do the analysis on the CCTV footage!" resolute Rikka who made his men surprised.

"Good!"

After a few minutes, the software expert spoke again, "Mom, it looks like the footage is being protected!"

Rikka frowning. "Can you hack?"

"Are you sure, Miss Rikka?" ask the officer reassuringly.

"Hm!" rikka said firmly with a sharp look.

Without a lot of words, the officer immediately heeded the orders of his beautiful superior. The finger of the officer from the Bureau of Analysis danced beautifully on the computer keyboard in front of him. Then, the wiggly finger that the man had suddenly stopped because of something that seemed a little surprising. It was visible from the look on his face that suddenly turned a little strange.

"What's wrong?" cetus Rikka suspected something.

"Hmmm ... how to say it, huh?" the officer hesitated a little. But Rikka just kept quiet and waited for its continuation.

"It's .. like there's a cop standing guard at the door."

"No need to use the supposition here!" exclaimed Andro annoyed.

"You mean there's an antivirus?" tanya Rikka started to wonder.

"No, ma'am .. more precisely the virus that's keeping this tape!" obviously the officer as short as possible.

"Virus?" andro said as he frowned and bowed his body next to the officer.

"How can the virus keep the records? Isn't that usually done by antimaleware?" Rikka started asking questions in a row.

"I also don't understand, Ms. Rikka .. It's like the earth and the sky are swapping positions."

"I told you not to use suppositions!" snarled Andro while pinching the officer.

"Andro!" rikka's reprimand on Andro who started off arbitrarily - mena.

"I'm sorry.I'm sorry, Officer, I was a little upset!" andro said apologizing while holding the officer's shoulder.

"Then ... can you neutralize the virus?" rikka orders in a soft voice.

"Well, I'll try!"

"Good!"

The officer began to make his finger dance again on the keyboard. What's more after hearing the voice of his superiors are very soft, he became more excited.

Andro, Rikka, and Shasha and the other officers can only be silent while watching the software expert and the glass screen alternately.

Shortly after, it looks like the software expert managed to hack and neutralize the virus that disrupts it and displays the results of CCTV footage that should be.

It looks there some people are passing by, both hotel guests, and employees. But, there was suspicious behavior from one of the hotel employees who was seen in the CCTV footage.

The hotel employee was a handsome man with a smooth face like a Korean drama film player. Then the suspicious man walked over to the CCTV and waved his hand with a smile.

Suddenly, the entire glass screen that was there died completely. And simultaneously the entire glass screen flashes like giving off a flash light that is usually released by the camera.

Then simultaneously, the entire glass screen came back to life and displayed a recording that made everyone there surprised.

The recording featured a collection of pixels like the Tetris game that formed the writing 'CONGRATULATION' then followed by 'WE PRESENT' and ended with 'THOUSAND FACE REAPER' along with a picture of a scythe held by a dark purple-robed skull.

Then there was a man wearing typical hotel staff clothes and on the background with bright walls all white.

The man in the recording initially turned his back on them. Then slowly and surely, he faced towards them and the man turned out to be wearing a mask.

The mask he wears is a white mask shaped like a fox with a red curved line motif on both sides of his cheeks.

"Halooo .." said the man greeting in a strange sounding voice while waving his hand.

While the audience can only be wide-eyed because they are surprised and do not believe what they are seeing.

"I'm amazed at you guys who managed to unlock this secret record!" said the masked man with passion.

"Today, someone managed to get to this stage. In fact, we have very carefully hidden this tape so as not to open."

"But once again I congratulate you!" he was accompanied by a loud applause.

"Greetings .. I am your beloved Thousand Face Reaper!" the masked man spoke again.

"I know what's on your mind now .. so you better shut up!"

"You want to catch me, right?" the Thousand Face Reaper mocked that successfully made Rikka grit her teeth annoyed.

"Free ... why?" he said it still with a poignant tone.

"Because I'm home now! Hahaha .." she laughed.

"Ok ok .. enough jokes," the masked man said through the footage.

"I'll tell you a fact here,"

"The reason why I killed the corrupt official was .." he continued deliberately paused while pointing at the audience.

"Because he deserved it! Hahaha ..." the chattering was original and further upset Rikka.

"I'm sorry .. I missed the joke!"

"If you want to know the details .. keep following this channel! Hahaha .." he continued.

"Then, see you in the next case, bye-bye!" the Thousand Face Reaper exclaimed in greeting and followed by a glass screen that suddenly died.

But, suddenly the glass screen came back on and displayed the same footage.

"Oh yeah, someone forgot to say!" said the masked man who suddenly reappeared on the glass screen.

"I heard there's a new officer hunting my head, huh?" he said while wailing towards the camera.

"Greetings to the new officer!"

In spirit, the masked man greeted who with a wave of his hand.

"And, you ... A reliable hacker who managed to open this record!" said the masked man insinuating the officer while pointing.

"Great as well as you! I think my next target is .. you! Haha.bye - Bye!"

this time the masked man's footage was completely finished and returned a normal CCTV display in every corner like nothing had happened.

Everyone there felt like they were being played, including Rikka.

After witnessing what was in front of him, Rikka was increasingly furious and wanted to immediately punch a hole in the head of the serial killer using a gun.

Andro and Shasha could only glance at Rikka and guess what she was going to say. As for the head of intelligence, it only took a deep breath and let it out slowly through its mouth.

But who would have thought, the last successful parting sentence made the officer shiver, tremble, and sit upright glued with an empty look.

"Hey .. be calm" Rikka said gently to the officer.

"The jerk was just kidding .. don't get dizzy!" continued.

It seemed like Rikka understood the feeling of the officer before her.

After being sure to calm down his subordinates, Rikka moved out of the room and was followed by Andro and Shasha.

"Bas an asshole .. I thought it was him!" hiss Rikka was upset while walking in the corridor of the hotel precisely on the fifteenth floor.

"Rikka .. do you need help for your mission this time?" ask Andro afterwards.

Rikka looked and smiled. "Thank you for your offer, Andro!"

"I'll definitely call you again if I need help" he continued.

Unresponsive, Andro just stared at him intensely and difficult to pronounce with words what the meaning of his gaze was.

"Thank you!" he said end and smiled. Then the beautiful woman walked back to the elevator with her assistant Shasha.

"Alright .." said Andro quietly after seeing Rikka enter the elevator. Then he walked the other way and disappeared somewhere.

Inside the elevator, Rikka and Shasha were silent and managed to make the atmosphere calm. Only the sound of the elevator engine was heard. And after hearing the sound of 'TING' the elevator door was opened and they went straight out of there simultaneously.

"Shasha, get everything sorted out and go home .. There's nothing more we need to investigate here!" rikka said firmly.

"What about the case report this time, ma'am? Do I need to finish it?" Shasha asked back.

"You're right .. Just send all the related files about this case to my e-mail, I'll clear the report!" Rikka's orders.

"Good, Mom!" the sweet-eyed woman.

"I'll also be home soon .. sorry, for always troubling you!" continued.

"From the apology .. wouldn't it be better to thank you, Miss Rikka?" reply to the assistant.

Rikka's stunned. "Then ... Thank you, Shasha!" he said accompanied by a smile.

Shasha just nodded and smiled widely and then left Rikka who is now fixing her things. Because he also wants to go home soon.

After a while, Rikka seemed to be walking in the hotel lobby and leading to the parking lot. But, suddenly his phone rang and he got the name Aldo that appeared on the touch screen of his phone.

"Hello?" greet Rikka after sliding the green phone symbol towards the right.

"Rikka, are you overtime today?" ask Aldo behind the phone.

"Yes .. You know where?" Rikka asked back while still walking towards the parking lot.

"So grandma called me .. she said, your mom said you were overtime. Do I need to pick you up?" aldo said.

"No need .. I brought a car, really!"

"Are you sure?" ask Aldo again to make sure.

"Yes, it's okay."

"Well then .. heart-heart on the road, huh?" aldo paid little attention.

"Yes .. until home later I will tell you," said Rikka reply to Aldo's attention.

"OK!"

"Hm, thank you."

"Same - same," Aldo replied briefly then hung up the phone.

Without realizing it, now Rikka was next to his car, and without waiting anymore, aldo's future wife immediately entered into his blue Italian sports car and immediately left the hotel parking lot

On the other hand, from earlier it turns out that there were people who noticed Rikka from inside the black sports car.

Who would have thought, that person was Andro. I don't know what purpose he did the usual thing by the stalker. To be sure, after the figure of Rikka left the parking lot, the burly man named Andro also moved from there but in the opposite direction.

It didn't take long for Rikka to get to her apartment. When it was night and the streets were quiet, it became a good opportunity for him to gas.

After the woman with the black iris opened the door of her apartment, she turned on the computer and picked up a box of drinks from the refrigerator. Then sit in front of the computer and start struggling with his work.

The report that Shasha was referring to had also been sent to her e-mail in file form. Without waiting any longer, Rikka immediately downloaded and opened the contents of the file, then began working on the report she had to finish about the Tony murder case.

As Rika's finger was typing on top of the keyboard, she suddenly jolted a little like realizing something and stopped her fingers instantly.

Opened again old files associated with Tony. And the girl who was still wearing her work clothes discovered a synchronized awkwardness.

"What does this mean?" he said while biting his lower lip.

Then Rikka shook her head and continued her work. 15 Minutes later the work was completed and the beautiful woman stretched her body on the chair because she felt sore.

"I'd better take a shower right away" he continued while looking at the collar of the wall clock.

But instead of going to the bathroom, the beautiful woman grabbed her phone and typed something there.

Apparently, Rikka was writing a message to someone. After further attention, the purpose of the message was Aldo.

After that, then Rikka went to the bathroom to perform a ritual of a woman that he used to do after coming home from work.

In another place and at the same time. Aldo and his friends were gathering at a bar. But, only Myra was not present there.

Surprisingly, somehow the bar is very quiet and filled only by Aldo and his friends. Then, Feeling that there was a notification, Aldo immediately checked his phone and smiled.

'I've arrived home.

After this I'll take a shower and go to sleep.

Good night :)'

That's how the message he received. The message came from his future wife Rikka.

"Hey ... Why are you whining yourself, Aldo?" ask Nana wonder.

Upon awakening from his fantasy, Aldo's face flushed slightly in embarrassment.

"It's okay!" he answered while scratching his back head.

"It's at best a message from his future wife" Zedd chirped on target.

"Want to!" nana said as she breezed toward the sofa after taking a glass of Zedd-style drink.

"Boss .. are you sure of your decision?"

Suddenly Zedd asked Aldo like he was interrogating a criminal.

Aldo glanced at him then gulped down a glass of drink. "Of course."

"I didn't think you'd make a decision like this" Zedd continued.

"I also need a future, Zedd!" reply Aldo.

"Again, I've known Rikka for a long time. What's more, Rikka is Isana's grandmother's choice!"

"You know for yourself how Isana's grandmother's intuition in choosing, right?" continued.

Zedd nodded his head. "What you're saying is true, but-"

"Aren't I afraid at all?" aldo's words connect the Zedd sentences he cut. Zedd just nodded.

"Hasn't our work been scarier all along?" continued Aldo.

"Again, I somehow want to always be by his side, Zedd!" continue with a sad look towards the glass.

Zedd could only smile and feel that he would always support whatever the leader's decision was.

"What if one day your identity is discovered by him?" Syndi comes to them while giving Zedd a code to make him a drink.

"Knowledge?" Aldo asked who was responded with a nod by Syndi after sitting next to him.

"Didn't he have a secret, too?" join Aldo with an intonation of asking.

"Because that's .. Doesn't matter to you?" reply Syndi.

Aldo. "No. If it ever happens and he catches me, I'll give him the same argument."

"Do you think he'll accept your argument?" This time it was Zedd who asked after giving the drinks Order Syndi.

Aldo smiling. "That's it. I'm sure I feel sure that he's the right choice!" said it.

"Hey, Boss.it seems like the video footage you requested was already seen by them," Taka suddenly interrupted and changed the subject.

"You mean that cool video related to Tony?" aldo asked after turning to Taka and was replied with a nod.

"It's cool, stupid video!" cibir Nana while relaxing on the sofa but not at all influenced by the others.

"Excellent ... This is progress for them, isn't it?" aldo looked happy.

"This must have something to do with colonel Rikka!" said Kawa who had been busy with his toys had now joined.

"Wow ... It looks like our flagship Sniper has a new toy?" said Zedd.

It seems that Kawa is carrying a white AS50 Sniper Riffle type rifle in her arms.

"Oi oi .. The size does not fit you very well, young man!" aldo said a little mocking.

Syndi just smiled while Taka really did not care about it and still stared at his favorite console game.

"Hm hm .. This cute one I've modified in my own style. So, only the size is large but the weight is light!" kawa is proud of her hard work.

"This is the AS50 Sniper Riffle I've developed. It is usually only able to reach a distance of 1.8km. But after I modified it, now it can reach 3 - 4 km!" sanyang explained.

"Well .. great!" said Aldo amazed.

"The color fits you perfectly, Kawa!" praise Zedd proud of his little friend.

"Hehehe .. thank you." Kawa was also very sad.

Then Kawa sat down between Aldo and Taka while grabbing a drink Zedd had prepared.

"If you think about it, I think what Kawa said was true!" said Zedd back to the discussion of the video that was considered cool by Aldo earlier.

"Rikka who managed to dismantle the virus made by Taka?" ask Aldo to make sure.

"I think so too!" timpal Syndi's.

"Yes ... Don't you know? That woman's intuition was exactly the same as Isana's grandmother!" hiss Kawa with a look of horror after gulping down her drink.

"I also had such thoughts," said Zedd, who again supported Kawa.

"That's true, it must be him! Otherwise, there was no way that complex code could be broken so easily!" taka sela.

"Over this time, only Grandma Isana can guess all the puzzles I've ever made!" continued.

"But dear .." cetus Taka deliberately paused.

"Darling?" ask Aldo, Kawa, and Zedd simultaneously.

Syndi just kept quiet and watched. While Nana is still fun to relax on the sofa without discussing her friends.

"Their talents are not implemented correctly!" keep Taka relaxed.

Other friends can only sweatdrop loud Taka's speech that is inversely proportional to the reality.

"I think it's your talent that isn't implemented where it should be, Taka!"

Syndi also chimed in his Tao Ming Tse-haired best friend and responded with a small laugh by his friends.

"By the way where is Myra?" ask Aldo.

"As usual, that stupid girl is dating another victim!" answer Taka cuek.

At Myra's place now, it seems that the little girl is sneezing next to her date.

When asked if she was okay, Myra just shook her head and turned the other way with an annoyed look while rubbing her nose.

After a long conversation that night, Aldo decided to go home. The time is 01:15 in the morning. The streets were already very quiet, but there were still cars passing around the city.

After 15 minutes, Aldo's white car arrived home. And the brown-haired man decided to immediately sleep in his favorite mattress.

Given Aldo who lives alone in a house large enough for a family, he also imagined, how his life would be if he was married and lived with Rikka.

Unknowingly, a smile was immediately on Aldo's face as he closed his eyes tightly and prayed in his heart that tomorrow and beyond would be good for him, his family, and his family, and his friends including Rikka.
