Asphalt Edge Empty House

Chapter 39 Night Terror

The hero arrived at the Royal Restorant at exactly eleven o'clock in the afternoon, according to the invitation, he immediately entered and circulated his gaze towards the crowded table that was crowded with visitors.

"Where is Joyo's Ronggo?"

"How do I recognize his face?"

Wira is still watching around the restaurant to look for the figure of the man who invited her. Long enough the hero stood up, until the arrival, a restaurant maid girl came over.

"You're Mr Wira?"

Tanya friendly waitress restaurant answered directly by Wira with a nod. The waiter of the restaurant, smiled as he led Wira into the VIP room.

"Please sir, you've been waiting inside."

The hero opened the door of a luxurious, spacious room, with several empty tables, and saw a middle-aged man in a shiny black coat stellan sitting down while enjoying a cup of bitter black coffee.

Wira approached the elegant man who looked indifferent with his presence. The man just looked at Wira with his cold gaze, while giving isyara allowing Wira to sit down.

"Just right away, Mr. Ronggo, what's your purpose in inviting me here?"

Ronggo Joyo smiled cynically, then reached into the pocket behind his black suit. A piece of paper containing handwriting is presented to Wira who is still guessing the purpose of Ronggo Joyo's invitation.

"Is this Mr Ronggo?"

The hero took the paper that Ronggo Joyo had proffered and read the contents. His forehead is crinkled to see the handwriting that turns out to contain the name and date of birth of the Wira, complete with the Javanese calendar month.

The hero who was completely blind about such a thing, became questionable in heart. He kept thinking about the meaning contained in the notes made by Ronggo Joyo. Many times the Hero tried to understand the contents, but he always failed to translate the intent of the handwriting.

"Close the point, Mr. Ronggo, what does this mean?"

"To be honest, I don't have much time to guess your mind."

Ronggo Joyo smiled faintly, then placed the cup of coffee that had been in his hand. While Wira gives gesture to the middle-aged man's body that seems mysterious in his eyes.

"Now you're too quick on emotion Mr. Wira. Everything that is based on emotion, the impact is always not good."

"Journalist girl is one example, the bitter fruit of your emotional nature at the time of handling matters."

"I know exactly, that for more than a month, you have been investigating us. But the opposite is true, you lose."

The hero heard it. He did not expect that Ronggo Joyo knew all the events that had befallen them. His passion was eager to beat up the man, yet he knew, Ronggo Joyo was no ordinary person.

Ever since they came face to face and talked, Wira always felt there was something different about Ronggo Joyo. There was a kind of one energy pressing down so that the Hero always felt uneasy while looking into his eyes.

"So you want to admit that everything that happens, is your responsibility?"

The hero immediately cut off the conversation, he began to get impatient with the attitude shown by Ronggo Joyo, the man seemed arrogant, and did not appreciate Wira at all as a police officer.

"Everything that happens is your responsibility Mr. Wira, if only at that time you did not insist too far into our affairs, of course this would not happen."

"But the point is not about that, I mean inviting you here is to invite you to cooperate."

The hero is increasingly confused by the direction of Ronggo Joyo's conversation. In the heart of Wira said it is impossible to accept the offer of cooperation from Ronggo Joyo which incidentally is part of the Sandikala sect.

"That paper contains your date of birth and your weton. I think you are the right person to perform this ritual."

Ronggo Joyo explained his point, but Wira could not respond to Ronggo Joyo's words. According to Wira Ronggo Joyo is insane. He couldn't possibly want to perform the ritual, let alone the person who asked for it was Ronggo Joyo.

"You don't joke, Mr. Ronggo. I can't possibly perform a ritual, much less for the purposes and interests of a heretical sect."

The hero stood up with a burst of emotion, he was just about to leave his seat, when Ronggo Joyo threw a worn-out book in front of Wira.

"Praakkkp...!"

"Bring the book, read it, and decide whether you will reject my offer, or will come to join."

"Remember the fate of the girl, your decision is decided. Better accept this cooperation, or there'll be more casualties."

"The beautiful polwan has been marked by Asih, in just a matter of hours, then his fate will be the same as the girls who have become so damaged."

Wira was surprised, hearing the words that were thrown from Ronggo Joyo's mouth. For a few seconds Wira just silently glued to stare at the old, outdated book that Ronggo Joyo left behind along with his business card.

Wira sat back and took a thick book containing ancient Javanese writings and pictures of spooky images that he did not understand.

"Is he serious about his threats?"

"No, I'm not gonna let Sandikala take the tumbar again. Not Siska or anyone else."

Wira put Ronggo Joyo's business card in her pocket, while her left hand held a thick ancient book covered in animal skin given by Ronggo Joyo.

"What am I doing this book?"

"The ringing of his mouth forced me to perform a ritual. You weird guy!"

The hero left the VIP room and rushed home. The sky was still shrouded in thick clouds. Along the way he kept thinking about Ronggo Joyo's words.

"What do I have to do now?"

Wira was overwhelmed with anxiety, one side he was reluctant to accept the laughter of Ronggo Joyo, but on the other hand, he also did not want to do anything bad to Siska.

"Asih has marked Siska as well, Is there any way to make Siska safe from that demonic woman?"

Wira drove his car with a bad feeling, Ronggo Joyo's words really have disturbed his mind.

While in a different place, at the same time a high school student just got off the city transport car. Heavy rain accompanied by strong winds made the body of the little girl soaked even though, she was sheltering under the umbrella she held.

Every now and then her tiny body wavers in the wind, she continues to walk down the sidewalk to the alley of her house. Several times the girl looked back as if she felt someone was following her.

"Why did my feelings suddenly become so unsettled, actually that one, is it really a person or not?"

The girl quickened her footsteps, she was agitated, whatever was following behind, but surely the high school student girl felt threatened by something.

"Agodk....!"

Suddenly the girl screamed, and then fell instantly on the street alley to her house. No one knew what had happened to him, but he was clearly lying on the street with wide eyes.

Similar events also occurred in several places, during the night before.Three girls died in the same way, in three different locations. They were all discovered the next day, when the rain began to subside.

The discovery of the victims who died in an unnatural way, is still a byword among the public. The news spread so quickly, and speculation about the cause of the deaths of the four young girls caused unrest.

I don't know who started spreading false news, but people already believe, if in their city, there are currently vampires who are wandering around looking for young girl prey.

Meanwhile, Wira felt confident that the predator, which was warm to being a gossip in the middle of the city, was none other than Asih.

"This city is getting unsafe, should I just accept Ronggo Joyo's offer?"

The hero is still struggling with his own mind, while the city begins to be engulfed in anxiety. The presence of mysterious creatures, makes residents reluctant to activity outside, especially when night falls.
