Rifky and Jonathan have reached the border. They were already prepared with their own weapons hidden behind the jackets they were wearing.
" Jo, make yourself as calm as possible. Don't be so uptight, so they don't get suspicious" Rifky said.
" It's my first time crossing the border, Boss. Usually we get on a plane." Jonathan said.
" We have to be vigilant, follow their game to get to the base. I'm sure they're hiding in the woods."
True their guess, after crossing the border it turns out there are already some people blocking them. Jonathan stopped his vehicle immediately. One of the men immediately approached and told them to come down.
" Remove the GPS on this truck!" the man's orders.
Rifky and Jonathan looked at each other and removed the GPS attached to the truck. When there was no coercion from them, Rifky thought that there were insiders who betrayed his company. Those two missing drivers must be their men.
" Follow us, boss is waiting!"
" Okay, Mister."
Across the street, Hans' men were monitoring them. After the truck begins to enter the forest, Hans' men immediately act following them a good distance away to keep the criminals unsuspecting.
" Jo, does this not mean a robbery? Everything is arranged, even they have welcomed our arrival" said Rifky.
" You're right, Rif. Our goods are deliberately sent to this place." said Jonathan.
" Alright, it hasn't been a sport in a long time either. I need an impingement, because of them I'm delaying my return."
Half an hour's drive, they arrived at a large warehouse. There were so many guards there that lined the gate and even went inside.
Finished parking the truck, Rifky and Jo are herded into another room and are not allowed to return to the city. There were four people sitting in the corner of the room. Looks like they were the driver who brought the freight truck before.
" Jo, we need to get some information from them. Maybe they know who's in charge here." whispered Rifky.
" Okay, we need to act fast. Hans' men are coming soon." said Jonathan.
Jonathan sat next to the four men and asked in Korean so they wouldn't be suspicious. Although Jonathan is native to Japan, he must be able to speak at least four languages, namely Japanese, English, Korean and Indonesian. Same with Rifky, Hans and Nicko. The four of them are indeed required to master the four languages at least so that they can get along with their families when visiting the house of one of them.
Rifky and Nicko are from Indonesia. They met while enrolling in college in Korea. Nicko is not from a wealthy family, he can go to college for a scholarship.
" I'm sorry, why are you here too?" ask Jonathan.
" We're a truck driver hauling goods from the company 'AMELIA FOODS '. We were going to deliver the goods to a neighboring country but on our way in the field and told to bring the truck into the middle of this forest." replied one of them.
" That means our fate is the same, I also just delivered the goods."
" Do you work for these robbers?"
" No, we just worked at the company a few weeks ago. The head of the warehouse told us that we would be picked up after crossing the border. Now we can't get out of here."
" You guys want to get out of here?"
" Yes, but it doesn't feel possible. They'll kill our families if we run."
" Do you know who they are?"
" No, but he seems to come here often."
" That's it...!" one of them pointed to the window.
A luxury car entered the gate. Jonathan and Rifky approached the window to see the face of the man who had just stepped down from the car.
" Huh...! He_..." Jonathan was almost lost.
" Ssttt...! Don't let them get suspicious." whispered Rifky.
" Boss, isn't that the mafia we once defeated?"
" Jimmy hasn't given up on destroying me yet." - furious Rifky.
Jimmy is a big mobster who used to attack Rifky just because of a woman problem. Jimmy's girlfriend leaves the man when she meets Rifky. The girl chases Rifky every day even though Rifky repeatedly drives her away. Since then, Jimmy has hated Rifky a lot and has been trying to destroy him.
" What are we going to do now?" ask Jo.
" Wait for Hans' men to attack and we'll catch Jimmy."
Fifteen minutes later, there was a gunfight outside the gate. Rifky immediately took the weapon from inside his jacket. Jonathan was also ready with a weapon in his hand.
" The four of you stay here. No one comes out if you don't want to die." Rifky ordered.
" Okay, Mister."
" Wowww... Is there an uninvited guest?" jimmy said cynically.
Jimmy who just came out of his private room found Rifky and Jonathan already standing in front.
"" Huh... You don't seem to understand my warning yet, Jimmy?" reply Rifky casually.
" I won't stop until you give me back my girlfriend!" yell Jimmy.
" Huh...! Your lover? Looks like you're crazy. I've never been with your lover." Rifky insisted.
" It's impossible! You must have hidden it!"
" It's up to you to believe it or not, but never once have I been with your lover."
Jimmy who felt he had been played directly attacked Rifky. Because it can be a surprise attack, Rifky did not have time to dodge so hit in his chest.
" Damn it. You're looking to die apparently!" rifky.
" Sir.. You're okay - what?" said Jonathan.
" Soge...! It's my business with him" Rifky said.
The fight is now a draw, they hit each other. Outside there were still gunshots echoing throughout the forest. Rifky continued to attack until the exhausted Jimmy began to be cornered.
" You still need to study harder, Jimmy. Your abilities are still far below mine." Rifky sneered.
" Damn...dead you...!" yell Jimmy.
Doorr...! Doorr...! Doorr...!
The sound of gunshots hit the tubes makes Jonathan shocked. But he was surprised because Rifky was fine. It was Jimmy who groaned in pain, his gun thrown away from him.
" Sorry, I came on time, right?" Hans grinned as he put his gun back in his jacket.
Jimmy groaned as his hands were shot by Hans as he wanted to shoot Rifky. Fortunately, Hans arrived on time with the police.
" Hans, is it safe outside?" ask Rifky.
" Avready, Boss. They've all been secured, let's go." Hans replied.
" Oh yeah, Jimmy. If you're still looking for your girlfriend, she's now with her husband in Germany. She had a very beautiful little daughter" Jimmy said.
" Where do you know?" ask Jimmy.
" A month ago, on a business trip there, I met him. Do you know why he left you?"
" What...? He must be after Rifky!"
" You're wrong. Rifky's just an excuse for you to let go."
" It's impossible! You must be lying."
" Hhh. Ask your parents. They know better why your lover left."
The police immediately took Jimmy and his men to the police station to account for his actions.
" Boss, are you okay?"
" I just want to get back to Indonesia."
" Do we need to help with the business there?"
" No need, you guys have a lot of work here. Nicko can handle the problem there."
The three of them immediately left the place to return to the Rifky Apartment. They are very tired of facing today, especially Rifky who has to move - move country for work. If it wasn't for Medina, maybe Rifky would have given up a long time ago.
