CONFINEMENT

CH 92 - BHAYANGKARA PART II RESEARCH

While elsewhere, on the outskirts of the Beach Country, in an old building that looked unkempt, a large tall man with a fierce face said to his men,

"What did you say? that young man from Manguntur was taking Ni Mas Habsari's sister to Galuh Banjar!" said someone dressed like the Beach Country Bhayangkara to the nude man in front of him.

"Chairman, I had followed them from a distance and they headed to Asram Resi Giri Waja at the top of the hill on the eastern edge of the Galuh banjar" said the man.

"And I also followed the student from Asram at the service of Perbekel Batubulan village, because I mingled among the mourners at that time" said the nude man with a sly smile.

"At that time the adopted son Perbekel Nengah Wirata among a student of Resi Giri Waja after he left and entrust Ni Mas Wati in Griya Manuaba." added the man back.

"Your work is good, Sanglir! Ni Mas Hasari will definitely love this news."

"What about your last task to remove the body of the older sister woman from the young man, is everything going smoothly?" asked the man dressed in Bhayangkara back to Sanglir.

Sanglir still with a sly smile answered the Red Garuda leader's question.

"Mr Martin need not worry, Sentot and I have done their duty without anyone knowing." said Sanglir while glancing at the man named Sentot beside him, The centot, who was also in Bhayangkara uniform, snorted in annoyance with a cold look towards Sanglir.

The man still remembers how the behavior of the Sanglir bejad persecuted and stuttered the body of the woman he tortured before being dumped in the river.

"Good, your work is very satisfying, I am sure that at this time the Bhayangkara will be confused and get blasphemy from the community."

"This is in accordance with what Ni Mas Habsari planned and surely at this time Mr. Timoti and Prawira Utama Bhayangkara will be the scapegoat of this event." said the fierce-looking man dressed as Bhayangkara who is none other than Martin led the group of Red Garuda trust Habsari Bonawati heir to the Harsuto dynasty.

Martin smiled coldly and threw a pile of money towards Sanglir, the man said again,

"Now your job is to bring Ni Mas Sariwati before me and Ni Mas Habsari, you still use Bhayangkara's attributes to blur our traces of action."

"Go to Asram Manuaba!"

"Remember not to fail and do it cleanly as usual!" concluded the man named Martin to his members before stepping out of the old building.

"Good chief!" exclaim all members of Garuda Merah who were in the old building at the same time and disperse themselves to carry out the command of the leader.

Cold air felt on the hill galah where Asram and Griya Manuaba are located, Sariwati still sits dumbstruck in the porch of the main building where Resi Giri Waja meditated.

Seen tiredness on the face of the ayu girl, her flickering hand playing the tip of her veil implies the anxiety in her nature.

Suddenly a young man came to the main building Griya Manuaba,

"Mas Ni Wati?"

"Why are you here, shouldn't you rest at Dauh Hall?" said the young man who is none other than Arsana disciple of the belief of Resi Giri Waja, his views are fixed towards Sariwati.

"Andika where are you going with this bundle that you brought?" arsana continued to look at Sariwati and the bundle of cloth containing the girl's belongings on her lap.

"Bli Arsana."

"I'm going home to dad's, Bli."

"I will ask for justice for what has happened to Muhibbin's family to my father."

"I have told Father Resi earlier" said Sariwati to Arsana, his face is now decorated with tears.

"Wouldn't you wait for Bli Muhibbin to come to pick up andika, Ni Mas?" arsana said to the girl sitting in front of him.

Bli Muhibbin told me that he would pick up and take you straight home to his parents."

"Will there be no misunderstanding between Andika and Bli Muhibbin, if andika's departure without his knowledge?" bring the young man back.

Sariwati shook her head,

"I told Father Rishi everything, Bli."

"I hope Ibbin understands my decision."

"This is also for the sake of justice that I must fight to defend her and uncover who is behind this mess" replied Sariwati.

Arsana muttered with what Sariwati said, the young man sighed at the woman's words in front of him, he sat in the chair in front of Sariwati while waiting for the teacher to finish his meditation.

The atmosphere of silence was felt around the hill galah, both Arsana and Sariwati drowned in their respective daydreams.

After waiting for a while, a familiar voice came from within the main hall, sounding familiar,

"Arsana, Ni Mas, come in!" said Resi Giri Waja from inside the room.

Sariwati and Arsana looked at him for a while, the young man nodded his head at the beautiful girl and invited her to enter the main room where Nabe was meditating.

"Sit down!" resi Giri Waja said back to the two people in front of him.

Arsana cupped her palms to her chest before crossing her arms in front of her teacher, while Sariwati nodded her head and rested beside Arsana.

"Ni Mas, if indeed your decision has been unanimous to leave this place and return to your home, I cannot forbid it."

"Be careful and always remember what I ordered you."

"After this everything you will face is not easy but you must hold on to your conscience" the white-clothed old man told Sariwati. The girl nodded silently hearing what Resi Giri Waja was saying.

"And you, Ning!"

"The company of Ni Mas Wati arrived in the city, after that you go to the residence of Gus Putra Narayana and give this letter to him." exclaimed the Resi back and held out a letter to his favorite student.

"Okay, Father Resi." replied Arsana briefly, the young man's face lowered while receiving a letter given by his teacher.

"Go now and if on the way there is something you meet, use your conscience to decide what you should do." concluded the Resi before turning his body continued his meditation and turned his back on the two young men before him.

Sariwati and Arsana inching to leave Resi Giri Waja, both of whom stepped out of the main room.

The two trains continued to split the night, right on the border connecting Galuh and Manguntur, both slightly reducing the speed of the iron vehicle.

"Bli Arsana, it seems that in front of us there is a group of Bhayangkara" Sariwati told Arsana.

Hearing the words of the ayu girl, Arsana sped up the speed of her wind train and balanced beside the wind car Sariwati was driving.

"Flat, Ni Mas."

"Tumben these nights a lot of Bhayangkara troops."

"It looks like they're going to Galuh's banjar, Ni Mas."

"We should pull over first and make way for them" Arsana said.

The two also stopped on the side of the road and let the Bhayangkara group who ride the train and join each other that headed in the opposite direction to the direction Sariwati and Arsana would go.

Suddenly a wind train returned and was seen heading to the side of the road towards Sariwati and Arsana were.

A nude Bhayangkara was seen approaching the two young men.

"Good night, Ki Sanak and Ni Sanak" said the nude man.

"Who are you these nights still on the streets" he said.

Arsana calmly answered the man's question in front of her.

"We're going into town, sir."

"We are Galuh residents" Arsana told the man.

"Tumben nights like these we see a lot of Bhayangkara, sir?" add the young man.

The Bhayangkara soldier answered what Arsana said.

"Betul Ki Sanak, we are going to Asram Manuaba" he said briefly.

Arsana slightly frowned hearing what Bhayangkara said before her.

"I'm sorry, sir."

"If you may know, what interests do you want to go to Griya?" ask Arsana.

The nude man answered what Arsana asked.

"We were assigned by the governor to pick up his daughter at Asram Papa Resi, Ki Sanak" the man said.

Arsana and Sariwati looked at each other to hear the reply of the Bhayangkara warrior in front of him. Now Sariwati chimed in a conversation that had occurred between Arsana and one of the Bhayangkara members.

"Sorry, Sir. Is it true that you were all told by Timoti's father?" sariwati asked Bhayangkara.

The man scrunched his forehead and asked Sariwati again.

"What does Ni Sanak mean to call the governor by father's call?"

"Don't this Ni Sanak be Ni Mas Wati?" said the man with sparkling eyes looking at the girl in front of him.

"True sir, I am Sariwati daughter of Timoti's father." said Sariwati lirih.

"It's a coincidence, Ni Mas."

"Sentot, you give our troops a warning to return because what we are looking for is in front of our eyes" Bhayangkara said nude to one of his friends.

Without saying anything, Bhayangkara named Sentot blew a whistle tied to a rope on his shoulder. The sound of the whistle was repeatedly sounded by the man and before long the entourage of the Bhayangkara who first drove towards Galuh back with the direction of the whistle that sounded the jolt. The Bhayangkara lined up neatly forming a line.

"Listen to all, we're going back to headquarters because what we're looking for is already in front of us."

"The one beside this young man was Ni Mas Wati, the daughter of the governor's master" the nude man told his members. All eyes were on Sariwati.

"Ni Mas, my name is Sanglir."

"Let's come home with us, because Ni Mas has been awaited by the family." said Sanglir with a slightly naughty look with a sly smile at the girl in front of him.

Arsana observed the motion of the naked man, his gaze looked unhappy when Sanglir looked at Sariwati. The young man whispered something to Sariwati.

"Ni Mas, I see the unnatural gurgle shown by the members of Bhayangkara before us."

said Asram Manuaba's student, but Sariwati gave a signal with a headband.

"It's okay, Bli Arsana."

"the Beach Country Bhayangkara were my father's men and they were very obedient to him."

"They're not gonna do anything weird to me."

"Or their lives at stake, if you dare to be indecent with me" the girl told her traveling companion.

"I will accompany Ni Mas to the city, because this is the trust of Father Resi" Arsana told Sariwati.

"No need, Bli."

"Bli Arsana just continue the other duties of Father Rishi, I will go to the city with them" replied Sariwati as she set her sights on the Bhayangkara

"Alright Ni Mas, you must be careful and take care of yourself" said Arsana with a feeling of worry and heavy heart to release the girl with the Bhayangkara.

Sariwati passed with the Bhayangkara who invited him to leave Arsana alone and soon Arsana continued his journey to the banjar Gelumpang to the residence of Ida Bagus Putra Narayana.
