Code 810: Disappearance of the Diatmica

Chapter Twenty Eight

After finishing with the bodies of Odel and Erik, Birdella now stepped back, shifting towards the last body in the room that was lying stiff on the cold autopsy table.

Birdella turned on the third operating lamp, the bright light was immediately highlighted to the body of the Diatmika.

Then detective Keiko finally came closer to Diatmika's body. His hand felt compelled to review the face of the Diatmika which although it had been mummified naturally but still looked beautiful, with both hands. Without detective Keiko noticing a tear falling down slid towards her right cheek but quickly detective Keiko wiped it off.

Birdella, who had already noticed the movements of her best friend, immediately took an initiative to approach and give some sheets of tissue to detective Keiko.

“Don't cry on, Kei. Seeing you like gini makes my heart hurt.“

Detective Keiko lifted her face while receiving tissue from Birdella and wiped away the tears that had already fallen.

“Thank you, del.“ A smile was clearly on his face that still looked sad.

Detective Egan approached his partner and gently patted detective Keiko on the shoulder as he tried to calm down his colleague who had been unceremoniously expressing his deep sadness.

The heartlessness and sadness that is now present belongs not only to detective Keiko but also his two best friends, detective Egan and Birdella. Even Aris who incidentally just close to them can also feel the atmosphere of sadness that has not been completed.

an atmosphere that makes them feel uncomfortable and want to immediately resolve all of those feelings as soon as possible.

It's not without detective Egan saying that. He didn't want to pressure detective Keiko or even corner her just that he wanted his partner to get back to being as excited as ever, get out of the pit of sadness and fall even though only briefly to be able to refocus on the process of solving cases that also involve the Diatmika in it as the earliest victim appears.

“How about the body of the Diatmika?“ detective Keiko asked for a second after she was able to regain control of herself and defeat her feelings of sadness.

“If his face is not like the beginning, but can you see the lip line formed curved here?“ birdella asked as she pointed to a corner of Birdella's naturally mummified face.

Detective Keiko again groped Diatmika's face but right at the point that Birdella pointed to. A smile immediately adorned the sad face of detective Keiko.

“Are you sure this is a smile?“ detective Keiko tried to convince herself.

A nod to Birdella's head is a sign that she's agreeing with what detective Keiko is asking.

Detective Keiko then huddled up, brought her lips closer to the ears of Diatmika's body and whispered a sentence.

“You still look beautiful, still the same as before when we often spent a lot of time together. You don't have to worry, I'll keep looking for who did this to you and with my own hands I'll put him in jail and make him pay for what he's done to you.“

Finished saying all those things, detective Keiko re-enforced her body and arched a smile sign that she was confident for the promise she had been giving to the body of Diatmika.
