Dowager Bohay

Ace

Anton did not expect that his arrival would be greeted with many village champions. They look no less creepy than Anton, with a machete that has been tucked in the waistband. Sharp and ready to hurt his opponent.

Anton twisted his brain quickly. Obviously he and his men will lose if they force to fight. His job today is to persuade farmers to sell rice to Papa Melati's company, not to make a fuss.

"Ehem." Anton cleared his throat to stabilize his voice. "Please calm down, sir. I came to this village to buy crops from farmers around this village. They already know me. Maybe we're the only ones who haven't met" Anton said kindly.

"No need to get acquainted. We already know who you are. There are enough farmers in this village to be hit by you and the rich who pay you!" answer one of the village champions with a ketus.

"Kibuls? I never had any intention of lying to the villagers, sir. I even intend to invite villagers to join the rice self-sufficiency program as promoted by the company where I work," said Anton.

"Oh, don't lie! You guys are sanding rice and it's on TV news, right? Self-sufficiency in nutmeg lo! Just get the hell out of this village! The rice belonging to the farmers here will be sold to a more trusted company!"

"A more trustworthy company? Whose company?" ask Anton.

Suddenly Anton heard a voice behind him. "Yes .. My Papa company is!"

Anton turned around and saw Djiwa standing next to Rendi. In front of him, the two bodyguards that had caught Jamal were standing by on standby guarding their treasured boss.

"The soul?" Anton widened his eyes to see the target he had been looking for was in front of his eyes.

"Hi Anton! Still want to catch me?" Djiwa waved her hand with a faint smile.

"Oh so you hide in this village? You think you'll survive? Hey, your life is big money for me!" Anton comes forward and tries to catch Djiwa. He sent his men forward.

"Dare you touch a hair of Boss Djiwa, your men will I finish!" threaten bodyguard Djiwa who has held a grudge because Anton ruffled his headquarters.

The Jawara also joined with Djiwa and the genk, making Anton aware that Djiwa forces more than his men. "Still moving forward?" challenge Djiwa.

"Lo think I'm scared?" challenge Anton.

Anton felt his ego at stake, although aware his men outnumbered still he went forward. Even fighting is inevitable. All tried to protect Djiwa but Djiwa who was furious to beat Anton even went forward. Djiwa managed to throw a few punches at Anton. The result was definitely won by the Djiwa. Anton and his men were knocked out. This time Anton was secured in a place no one would know about.

Elsewhere, Papa Melati began to become a club because her good quality rice stock had been thrown into the market. Reproduction as Melati suggested has been done but good rice stocks have not yet come. Anton who was assigned was like lost in the swallow of the earth.

Not satisfied just there. Djiwa began to launch his attacks again. Evidence of Papa Melati's relationship with one of the police officers who had helped him arrest Djiwa began to be revealed to the public.

Through the hackers hired by Djiwa, the proof of transfer to the account of police officers conducted by Papa Melati with a large nominal revealed to the public. Smart netijen also re-entered Rendi to enliven social media with the hashtag #oknumsahabatkentusalicik#ulakoknumperimasap

"The son of a famous businessman owner of the Surya Corporation, Melati, was caught on camera checking in with several different men. It is known that the men he invited on a date were the entrepreneurs who owned large tenders. Does this have anything to do with the success of Melati getting a lot of big tenders?"

"The stock price of Surya Corporation has dropped dramatically since the revelation of the rice-plopping case plus the scandal of the owner's proximity to police officers. Shareholders choose to sell their shares especially after hearing the daughter of the owner of the Surya Corporation who will inherit the company get tenders in a dirty way ...."*

"The new production of Surya Corporation's products did not get a good response in the community. The community was already disappointed and chose rice produced by the newly marketed family-owned company Angkasa Djiwa. According to the community, the quality of rice produced by Angkasa Corporation is better at a reasonable price. Angkasa Corporation also promised to pay more attention to the fate of farmers and the quality of rice ...."

Djiwa throws a card at the table. "Ren, aces throw now!"

"The murder case of a farmer in one of the country's largest rice-producing villages, Purnomo, has been investigated. Purnomo was allegedly poisoned by his wife, Roses. Now the case is reopened because there are many irregularities. Rose has served five years in prison on murder charges but the evidence provided is less accurate."

The video of Melati talking to Anton was played. The camera screen clearly highlighted Melati's face and her words. "After all, force those foolish peasants to sell us rice for cheap! If they refuse, burn their land. Don't let them sell anywhere else! Buy their crops at low prices. Remember, we're the ones who set them up, not the ones who set us up!"

Apparently in addition to the video conversation Melati and Anton who had recorded Purnomo and then watched Djiwa and Roses, there are other sound recordings stored in hidden files by Purnomo. Rendi who found it while he was tinkering with Purnomo's old-fashioned phone then told Djiwa that there was additional information from the recording.

"The farmer of the village, just finish him off! Play clean! Don't let him affect other farmers!" Melati's clear voice told Anton to commit murder.

All Djiwa open to the public. Netijen cooperated. They make the case viral and keep it from getting lost by other problems. All news pieces were put together into one big news, making police intervene to investigate the complete fraud of Surya Coporation and the possibility of Melati as the mastermind behind the Purnomo murder.

Djiwa looked at Rendi and all her men. "Who's home?"

Rendi, Iman and the two Djiwa bodyguards nodded with a smile. "Ready, Sir!"

"Goody!" Djiwa looked at Jamal who continued with them but never betrayed him at all. "Mal, your job is not done yet."

Jamal lifted his face and looked at Djiwa. "What else should I do, sir?"

"Clean the name of the rose!" Djiwa took out a letter and gave it to Jamal. "Run the prison sentence calmly. Don't worry, your son and wife are guaranteed. My child's education will be my responsibility. You can simply serve the punishment and admit everything honestly!"

Jamal received the envelope that Djiwa gave him. It contained a letter of agreement that Djiwa would finance his family and also an ATM and PIN for Jamal's wife. There is a nominal amount of money listed in the savings book, savings for his family during this time in prison.

Jamal's tears were shed without being prevented. "Thank you, sir. Please apologize to the rose. Forgive me .. forgive me ...."
