"Are there any other clues?" ask Yati, who resumed the conversation.
"I'm not sure, Ma'am Yati. We are coordinating with the police to look for further clues" said the person who gave the answer.
"Inform the police immediately and make sure they are working as quickly as possible. We have to find out who is behind all this" the woman asked all her father's men to work quickly.
"Good, Ma'am. We'll definitely try our best."
After everything was enough, Yati ended their conversation this time. He knew his father was nervous. The loss that has just been experienced has now become more complicated with the possibility of the perpetrator behind this fire.
'I'm sure the police officers are doing their job well.'
The presence of police investigating the case, and not immediately getting a clue adds to the deep uncertainty.
'Everything takes time, the legs have to be patient.'
The location of the fire that still smelled charred and full of damage has become a silent witness of the tragedy that occurred. When the police arrived yesterday, at the scene of the crime (TKP), the atmosphere around became increasingly tense. Officers dressed in blue uniforms engaged in an intensive investigation.
Highlights of police floodlights illuminate the area of the scene, making the black walls burn even more striking in the dark of the night.
Yati can see and see the remnants of the fierceness of the red boy who devoured a row of shops owned by his father.
Tapes and police lines run across the area, isolating the place where the investigation is focused. Forensics teams and criminal officers are seen busy collecting the necessary evidence and data.
Slowly, TKP becomes a rigid and serious center of activity. Police officers worked diligently, taking photographs, recording important details, and collecting samples to be tested in the laboratory. They are trying to gather all the information that might help uncover the true cause of these fires.
"Search all witnesses who can provide information, about the fire that propagates from where? How's position?"
A senior detective leads the investigation, speaking with great concentration with his team members. They discuss the evidence that has been found and find out the best way to link the dots in order to uncover what happened.
The atmosphere in the CTF is full of tension and serious. Even though the night was getting late, the investigation activity did not stop. The bright floodlights and the serious views of the officers illustrate the importance of uncovering the truth behind this tragedy.
Police are determined to uncover the cause of this fire and find out if there is a criminal motive behind it. Amidst the uncertainty and chaos, their efforts are the only hope to provide answers to Mr. Wasito, Yati, and everyone affected by this tragic incident.
"This is the first location that burned. Looks pretty bad." Police officers provided a presumption, while taking pictures for the purposes of further investigation.
"Yes, the fire seems to have spread quickly from here." The other officer, said by observing the circumstances around.
"I'll take some samples for analysis in the lab" said the other officer, while collecting the necessary samples.
"How's it going?" ask Senior Detective approaching.
"We have identified several points that may be the start of the fire. It does not seem to be caused by electrical short circuit or natural factors" replied the officer who had given his discovery from the starting point of the fire.
"So there's a deliberate indication?" senior Detective quickly thought.
Second Officer: (nod) That was the initial impression.
"I have some samples from around the initial location of the fire. We can get a hint from this analysis," continued the officer, after coming back.
Senior Detective nodded, giving orders to his other men to quickly perform all of their respective tasks.
Mr. Wasito, including the most respected people in this area so they will also do their best.
"I'll take care of it quickly, sir."
"There are some people who claim to have seen someone suspicious before the fire started."
One by one of his men, the police team, gave an explanation to senior detectives according to what they found in the field or CTF.
"Let's collect them, then interrogate them one by one. Who knows we can get further clues," Senior Detective pleaded for a breath.
While officers continued to investigate and gather evidence, they discussed diligently to find out the true cause of the fire.
Every piece of information they find is a puzzle piece that will help uncover the truth behind this tragedy. With determination and hard work, they are determined to uncover what really happened and get justice for the affected.
Unfortunately, some CCTV was damaged before the fire, suggesting attempts to hide any traces or evidence that might reveal the true cause of the tragedy.
This is a very important clue for the investigating officer, as it suggests there is a certain motive behind this event.
"So, did anyone intentionally damage this CCTV before the fire?" senior Detective asked, inspecting two pieces of technically broken CCTV.
"Yes, Sir. Some CCTVs have been in a state of disrepair for two days. All the last footage before the fire was gone" the officer replied nodding.
"It can't be a coincidence. Someone wants to hide what's really going on" Senior Detective said with a deeper thought.
"I think .. they want to remove any traces that could help uncover the cause of the fire" continued the other officer, co-observing CCTV.
"I tried to turn on some other CCTV, but there were some who also died."
The IT clerk replaced the battery, but it still couldn't turn on. This led all of them, without exception, to conclude that this fire was indeed intentional by someone.
"Is there a possibility, there are other eyewitnesses who saw what really happened before CCTV died?" senior Detective asked twisted his brain to think.
"We will try to find potential witnesses around the site" another officer said, scratching his head.
In these situations, the loss of CCTV footage evidence adds to the complexity of the investigation. Investigators should look for other ways to gather information that could help uncover the cause of the fire. In an effort to get to the truth, they must work harder and seek clues from eyewitnesses or other evidence that may still remain.

At home, Mr. Wasito was feeling tightness in his chest. He was distressed by this incident, but could still look tough in front of his son.
"Master, calm yourself. Patience, maybe it's just a regular thing."
"Ti-dak, Nin-naa. I-I .. I-I think of this a-da hub-bu gan with my a-ku or Yat-tiihh."
With great difficulty, Mr. Wasito conveyed his thoughts to Bu Nina. But, he did not want if Bu Nina conveyed it to Yati. This was because he did not want his son to increase his mind.
