Chapter 220



It was indeed not Mister Yori.


The helicopter floated above the field in front of Uncle Salim's house which was filled with people. They stepped aside to provide a landing spot for the flying vehicle.


The police car came as the helicopter was about to hit the ground.


“Who are they?” said a policeman who seemed to be of rank and important figure, to Mr. Lurah.


Yes, he is a corrupt police officer who has been backing up Mr. Lurah and Dirga so as not to be dragged into legal trouble for their actions that make the villagers lose.


“Do not know. But it looks like our business will be long!” said Mr. Lurah.


Aditya did not expect that the ones who came down from the helicopter were Pandu and Frita. Somehow Deri or Yusi contacted them without asking for advice from him.


Aditya is a bit irritated also by the way Yusi and Deri are, but is happy to see Frita, even though the situation has not felt right.


Aditya said, “You how did you get here?”


“We heard you had a problem. Yes, we came to help if we could,” said Frita.


Uncle Salim meanwhile was at a loss to see who these people were? And more confused after seeing three luxury cars enter from the turn at the end of the road, heading towards them, and stopped beside his house.


“Who else is this?” asked the Corrupt Police to Mr. Lurah while whispering.


“Either I don't know!”


Aditya is again surprised to see Ratna get off the car. It's been a really weird day. Why did everyone he knew out there suddenly come and be present in the matter of his village?


“See, we're coming for you. You helped a lot. It's nature that works,” whispered Frita to Aditya.


“Ah, you don't poetic.”


Frita pinched the man's arm.


“Halo, Dit. Sorry I came this way,” said Ratna. “I heard you had a problem.”


“You guys talk to each other?” aditya asks Frita and Ratna.


Ratna immediately made it clear, “Oh, no. I knew when you suddenly came home. Yes, I have resources and people. You know for yourself. Sorry for following you.”


Aditya could no longer say, but Frita looked jealous. Her husband's candidate being tailed? A very difficult act he accepted.


“So, where were we?” cut Mr. Lurah who looks completely unappreciated because of the arrival of guests from this beautiful city. He doesn't know what their relationship is with Aditya.


The Corrupt Police said, “We still have business with your friends. So please step aside first.”


“Urusan Aditya is also our business, Sir,” objected Pandu who immediately stood right in front of the thick mustachioed police.


“Oh, so this is it? You all who? We are police and we have to arrest Aditya for making a scene?”


“What kind of commotion?” ratna asked in annoyance.


“Teaching Pak Lurah's son!” answer the Corrupt Police.


“Yes, it's because I was attacked by Dirga's friends. And Dirga attacked me too. Am I wrong to defend myself?” aditya replies calmly, then he oddly picks up the phone from his pocket and reads a message there.


Aditya smiled with a mysterious expression.


The police seemed to be inadmissive. His wife was smeared with Aditya's words, so he forced Aditya to arrest and take him to the police station. Pandu and Frita try to get in the way, so does Ratna.


But, Aditya instead said, “You guys are calm. I'll be fine.”


Aditya was taken to the police station. Pandu, Frita, Ratna, Diana, and Uncle Salim also participated. They ride in separate cars, except for Diana and Uncle Salim who are in Ratna's car.


Ratna grumbled, “What are you trying to do, Dit?”


Diana's curious. Who is this Ratna? And, who are those people with the chopper?


Ratna could not answer other than saying, “We are close friends Aditya.”

“Luckily I happen to be near here, Dit,” said Mister Yori last night. He had just entered his hotel room in a city in Central Java. Not long ago she was a resource person at a hearty discussion about nutrition and health for children around the world.


Aditya is the biggest contributor. Not just once. I don't know how many times. Not only a handful of humans were helped by him, but somehow a thousand souls. So Mister Yori did not feel any objection to Aditya's request this time.


“There's a big problem, huh? Is this about Mr Lurah?”


“Ya, right.”


“OK, it is time for the man to swallow the consequences of his actions,” said Mister Yori who was impatient to meet Mr. Lurah.


***


At the police station.


Aditya is taken down from the car, but he laughs happily.


“Why laugh?” ask Mr. Lurah annoyed.


There had been waiting for Dirga who inexplicably had his hands bandaged, like there was a severe wound on his body. Bandi and Pirlo accompany him. But that's not what makes Aditya laugh.


In a corner of the parking lot stood a person with a wooden cane, probably around sixties years old. The wand reportedly kept him company five years ago because of an accident that made his leg could not be saved and had to be amputated.


It was Mister Yori.


The situation in the parking lot was so strange when Mister Yori greeted Aditya and the two people hugged each other. Pandu, Frita, Ratna, and Uncle Salim were also of course astonished.


“Who are they, Dit? Please explain! Don't let your uncle get confused!” said Uncle Salim.


“Uncle, introduce him Mister Yori. The figure that has been behind the progress of our village,” said Aditya.


Mr. Lurah who heard that laughed instead. “Village progress? Who is he? Not here either!”


At that time many members of the police force saw the scene, including ordinary people who happened to pass in front of the police station. Because too many ordinary luxury cars are never seen in the area.


“He's the chairman of the humanitarian foundation. There is an unknown contributor who gave a lot of money to this village. I know Mister Yori, so I know about the benefactor. Isn't that right, Mr Lurah? You know that one billion donation, right?” ask Aditya.


Yes, this is Aditya's ultimate weapon.


Mr. Lurah could not answer, because donations from outside foundations and unknown figures were never used for village development. All the money he uses himself, and mostly for Dirga to have fun with many times changing motorcycles or cars.


Because Mr. Lurah did not also answer, Aditya continued, “Wah, strangely why our village is slow going forward, huh? There are only a few new homes, it also has its own citizens. Village facilities remain as dilapidated as ever!”


“What do you talk to?” said Mr. Lurah, who even more panicked after seeing Frita showed his cellphone that has been recording video since.


“You jerk city guys! Interfere with our affairs! There has never been a donation for this villager from that foundation!” said Mr. Lurah.


The Corrupt Police who also splashed the illegal money could only slowly retreat and get away from it, whether he wanted to run away to where. Silently Deri and Yusi go to arrest him.


“This is our corrupt house, Brothers!” aditya said with witnessed by a number of police and many residents there. “There is proof of transfer that Mister Yori has held if you are all interested.”


The citizens immediately rushed forward to ensure Aditya's talk. Mister Yori was no less deft to pull out a piece of paper from behind his suit.


Citizens easily understand the digit numbers in the paper and how this law can act as they please, buying law enforcement in order to continue to pitch freely. That might even be just one act of corruption. For sure they are now fed up with Mr. Lurah.


Unable to dwell, Dirga's father immediately gave up and said anyone who splashed the illegal money. Several policemen were seen trying to escape, but were arrested by their own honest colleagues.


Yusi and Deri had also managed to prevent the Corrupt-ranked Police. The thick mustachioed policeman was led by the two of them to the police station in a drenched and smelly condition. He was thrown in the cave before Yusi brought him here.


Uncle Salim was completely inexhaustible with what had happened. How did Aditya get to know these people?


Diana was the same.


Aditya was able to return home that afternoon after giving some information. He did not get into trouble because Mr. Lurah agreed not to continue the Dirga case. After all, his son went to the hospital not because he was beaten. But due to stress, because she knew there was no way she could have Diana.
