“Can I call him that he lost his memory?” ask Tri.
“Yes. You could say that, sir. More precisely, he did not remember anything since his disappearance until now. It was as if someone had accidentally erased his memory.”
Tri also just nodded his head to understand the explanation of the doctor.

The next day, after Joko rests, she has to undergo an interrogation under the guise of psychological treatment with one of the psychiatrists who also works with ARN.
Joko is in a special room like an interrogation room with a psychiatrist who will give questions to him.
Outside the room, Aji and Rina stand watching Joko with the psychiatrist from behind the invisible glass from the room
The psychiatrist begins to attach the device to Joko's chest and hands to see her heartbeat and pulse.
It seems that the tool can also detect all the words Joko answered and find out whether Joko was lying or not.
“This is not the first time you tried this tool, is it?”
The female psychiatrist finished attaching the device to Joko.
“I've read in your notes that you've been training to avoid detention. Let me be clear beforehand just in case. This is a very different tool.”
“This tool can record your heart rate, blood pressure, brain waves, even small vibrations in your eyes and ears.”
The psychiatrist sits back in his chair and confronts Joko.
“What I'm going to do now is very simple. I just need to evaluate, whether you are telling the truth or not, then I will report the results to your superiors.”
Joko still remained silent as the psychiatrist explained it from the beginning. He looked back at the psychiatrist blankly like a psychopath.
“If you're hiding something now, you've made a pretty big mistake. Alright, Mister. Let's start.”
“Written here your name is Joko Setyo Diningrat, by the nickname Joko. Is that true?”
Joko was still silent with her eyes staring in another direction like when daydreaming.
“Let me ask you one more time. Is your name really Joko?”
“Ya.”
Finally Joko answered briefly without seeing a psychiatrist and did not move his body at all.
“Do you work for ARN (State Secret Agent)?”
“Ya,” reply Joko back.
“Is it true, you are from Ponorogo from East Java Province?”
“Ya.”
“You also said that your last memory was a night with two of your co-workers who were killed in a safe house, while you were on duty in China on August 13, three years ago. Is that true?”
“Ya.”
Joko continued to answer briefly and it seemed like the tool also showed that Joko was telling the truth.
“Is it true that you don't remember what happened over the last three years since that night?”
“Ya.”
“You also heard that your comrades Al and El were also killed right then and there. Were you also involved in their deaths?”
“Or can you still remember about their deaths?”
Joko goes back to silence, then arranges the psychiatrist's eyes sharply when the psychiatrist asks her about it.
The psychiatrist took a deep breath, then prepared to ask again.
“Let me ask you one more time. Were you involved in the deaths of two of your co-workers Al and El.?”
“No.”
The device detects from the monitor that Joko is not telling the truth, but it is not certain because Joko's condition has not fully recovered.
