125. Elvira Lost

That day Elvira and doctor Lita helped buy kitchen necessities in a market that was located quite far from the camp. They were accompanied by a resident named Meeva and a soldier of the rank of Chief Corporal who drove a truck to transport their groceries later.

Elvira, Meeva and Lita get out of the car and enter the market. The three shop for kitchen needs separately in order to save time. Meeva and doctor Lita arrive first in a truck that is deliberately waiting for them in front of the market.

" Where is Teacher Elvira...?" ask the soldier named Dodi.

" Yes, it hasn't come yet, sir...?" meeva asked, getting anxious.

" Gapapa, maybe in a minute. The groceries that Bu Elvira had to buy were quite a lot. Let's just wait here..," said Dr. Lita.

" If you haven't returned for ten minutes, I'll go in the dock.", said Corporal Dodi.

" Yes sir..," said Doctor Lita while trying to suppress her worry.

After ten minutes of waiting in anxiety, Corporal Dodi finally went to catch up inside. Before leaving he asks doctors Lita and Meeva to wait in the car.

" Don't forget to lock the door and don't open it if it's not Me or Miss Elvira who came..," Corporal Dodi said before passing.

" Why are you talking about Mr. Dodi ?. Ms. Elvira again shopping and not kidnapped right..," said doctor Lita began to panic.

" But feeling I said something happened to Miss Elvira. That's why I want to go inside first. Hopefully Ms. Elvira will be fine, doc..," said Corporal Dodi.

" Aamiin..," said Meeva and Lita's doctor together.

Then Dodi rushed to go to the market. From the movements of Corporal Dodi who looks suspicious makes doctors Lita and Meeva anxious. Moreover, the man also took out a gun from behind his waist.

" Have something bad happened, doc...?" meeva asked with a trembling voice.

" I don't know Meeva. We just went to this market this time. What do you think...?" ask doctor Lita while glancing at Meeva.

" Oh that, mmm... I hope Ms. Elvira does not meet them..," said Meeva Lirih but clearly heard in the ear of Doctor Lita.

They who do you mean Meeva...?" ask doctor Lita.

" Mommy.not nobody, doc. I just want to talk, ." said Meeva nervously.

" I don't like being lied to by Meeva !. Tell me honestly what is this really ?. Why did you suddenly jump into the market that was far away from this camp...?!" ask doctor Lita while looking at Meeva.

" This market is more complete doc. So we can all shop without having to go back and forth again right. That's the only reason, there's nothing else." said Meeva, casting her gaze in another direction.

Meeva's answer made Lita suspicious. But he did not urge Meeva because he also did not want something to happen to him to make the burden of his colleagues increase later.

Meanwhile inside the market Dodi goes around looking for Elvira. Even Dodi is looking to the corner of the market. Occasionally he also asked market visitors and traders about the existence of Elvira but nil.

Shortly thereafter Corporal Dodi returned to see doctors Lita and Meeva empty-handed. The two women looked anxious and wondered where Elvira was.

" Where is Miss Elvira Mr. Dodi...?" ask doctor Lita.

" I don't know Miss Elvira doc. I am a yam-ubek but I am also. I'm the same everyone there but no one is squirming Ms. Elvira..," said Corporal Dodi quickly.

" How do you go, sir...?!" ask doctor Lita's worried.

" We'll go back to the docking camp. I can't possibly find Miss Elvira and leave you here alone..," said Corporal Dodi as he began to start the car.

" We're back without Mr. Elvira, sir...?" ask doctor Lita.

" Forced dock. All I report to the Commander first let it not be misplaced later..," said Corporal Chief Dodi while starting to drive a car at high speed towards the camp.

When Chief Corporal Dodi reported to Captain Rex, the Captain's face was stiffened. He smelled something unnatural about Elvira's disappearance.

" In the market near the city of Captain..," said Corporal Dodi quickly.

" Why go there. Usually do you shop in markets that are close to here...?" ask Captain Rex doesn't understand.

" Said Meeva the market there is more complete Captain. So I, Doctor Lita and Master Elvira agreed to shop there. We are curious and want to know the market situation that he said was big Captain..," said Corporal Dodi.

" Oh so. Then your curiosity is answered...?" captain Rex asked while looking resentfully at Corporal Dodi.

" I'm sorry not Captain !. It turns out the market is the same Captain...!" kopral Dodi's sahut misbehaved.

" And this is the result. Ms. Elvira is missing, either accidentally kidnapped by someone or even by a group of irresponsible people. Do you know what it means Corporal...?!" ask Captain Rex loudly.

" Well, I know Captain !. It means we have to be ready to pick up Miss Elvira's teacher and fight the troublemaker Captain...!" sahut Corporal Dodi.

Corporal Chief Dodi's reply made Captain Rex snort in annoyance.

" It's not just that Corporal !. Something worse could have happened to Miss Elvira. You understand what I mean, right...?!" ask Captain Rex.

Chief Corporal Dodi fell silent because he knew what the Captain meant. He could not imagine if a beautiful woman like Elvira was captured by a group of notorious thugs in treating their victims.

" Do you understand Corporal...?!" repeat Captain Rex right in front of the Corporal's face.

" Well to understand !. I'm sorry Captain, I'm willing to accept the punishment later..," said Corporal Dodi with a pias face.

" good. Now we're getting ready to pick up Miss Elvira, '" Rex said, checking the contents of the bullet in his gun.

" Prepared Captain...!" corporal Dodi then rushed out of Rex's room.

Then Captain Rex gathered all the soldiers in the field. He divided his army two.

" Ten guys came along I picked up Miss Elvira. The rest remain on standby here while continuing your respective work...! " said Captain Rex.

" Prepared Captain...!" command the army.

" Copral Dodi, get Meeva over here now.." - Pinta Rex.

" Prepared Captain...!" sahut Corporal Dodi then ran small to the special cooking tent.

Shortly thereafter Corporal Dodi returns to face Captain Rex, only alone without Meeva.

" Where's Meeva...?" captain Rex asked as he looked to the right and to the left looking for Meeva's whereabouts.

" Meeva goes Captain..," said Corporal Dodi.

" Went?, where...?" asked Captain Rex while frowning.

" Do not know the Captain. This info I got from Lita's doctor and colleagues who were in the kitchen..," said Corporal Dodi.

" Have you been looking elsewhere...?" ask Captain Rex.

" Ready, it's the Captain. But Meeva has indeed gone Captain." said Corporal Dodi with cold sweat flooding his body.

" This is what I'm worried about. He must have told the kidnappers to run for their lives before we got there. All right, we're leaving now. And you're Corporal, you're the one with the car and the road guide...!" said Captain Rex.

" Prepared Captain...!" command the army while preparing to get into the truck.

A moment later the truck driven by Corporal Head Dodi was seen leaving the camp at high speed.
