Fragrant For Galih

Ep. 104 Operation Arrest of Scorpion King

At Scorpion's gang headquarters, the inner chamber of Lamona...

Prangs!!

"Damn it!!" Shouted a bule man wearing a black suit while throwing a bottle of wine until the red liquid pooled on the floor.

"How could you lose that thing?! It is so precious and more expensive than your life! It's the latest stuff. Do you think it's easy to get it huh?!!" He again shouted his anger, while the people around him who were all men in black just lowered their heads in fear. It was clear they were all just those black-clothed boys.

"Pardon us Boss, we're off guard, we don't know if Ali will do that, we..."

"Shut up!"

One of his men tried to give an explanation but was immediately cut off by the man called Boss. But hearing them mention Ali by name, it was certain that the black-clothed man they called Boss was Jushua Franklin, a former member of the US military special forces who is now a fugitive. The man behind Ali's sister Erisha's kidnapping.

"Where is Ali now?" Joshua asked in a cold tone.

"After we beat him that night we didn't know his whereabouts." Answer one of his men.

"Stupid! Handling just one mouse you're not so smart! Find it now! Bring it before me alive!" Joshua again shouted angrily because none of his men were working properly.

"Ba, good Boss." Answer them in unison.

"Ah anu Boss... It seems Ali is back in the village where she lives. Because there's nowhere else he lives but there." Said another Joshua man.

"Then find her there and bring her here after you find her." Joshua's orders.

"The problem is that the village is the closest village to the Blue Line border which is always guarded by UN forces." Said his men again.

"Are you guys working here with blunt brains?! Don't you guys have your own way into that village huh?!! Have that stupid officer take care of it!" Again Joshua raised his voice, that day was indeed a day that drained his emotions.

"Good Boss!" Answer his men.

"Basically everything is not sober! Anyway if all that doesn't work out, we still have a pretty bait saru in my hand hahaha...!" His laughter boomed after saying that.

Meanwhile, at Indobatt headquarters, the commander of the army has gathered some of his soldiers for a meeting to discuss the strategy they will do to capture Jushua and save Ali's younger sister.

"In this arrest and rescue operation we will be assisted by U. S. U. N. forces and of course the Lebanese army itself. According to a spy posing as a visitor in Lamona, they already knew that some of their valuables had been stolen by Ali. Joshua's men have been moving to find Ali around the city and it is likely that they will move to find Ali in the village where he lives tomorrow morning. Just in case they come tonight, some of you will have to disguise yourself as villagers there with the Lebanese army. And most likely they will not satang themselves because they must have predicted the existence of us who are always patrolling the villages adjacent to the Blue Line region. So they'll definitely have the officer working with them. So you have to be careful and make sure those who come messing around won't be able to return to their base." Said the Commander at length explaining the strategy of arrest to his men.

"Ready, Commander!" Answer them all in unison.

"Then you can return to prepare yourself, unless Galih, Romero and Umar remain here." Commander's Order.

"Ready, go!" Reply them again firmly and disperse leaving Galih, Romero and Umar with the Commander of the army.

"There are additional tasks for you." Said the Commander while looking seriously at each of them.

"Get into the nest of a herd of scorpions and capture the King of Scorpions loose." The commander gave his orders.

"Ready, go!" Answer them in unison firmly.

The three of them returned to their places to get ready with the rest of the troops assigned after getting a briefing from the Commander.

After the preparation is finished they immediately leave for the village where Ali lived and will occupy the designated points secretly. Not to forget they have coordinated with the United Nations forces from the U. S. and Lebanon who are also there.

On the way Galih took the time to send a message via WhatsApp for Wangi which reported that he would not be at the headquarters for a while because of the task and told Wangi to always be careful in work place. But Galih was reluctant to answer when Wangi asked him where he went on duty this time. Galih only answers if the place is not far away and will return soon.

"Sorry, I don't want to worry you." Galih muttered in the heart.
