Moon In Hugs

Chapter 240

Uncle Salim at that time thought the situation had started to be safe. From night to day there were no new victims.

The police and the residents who combed every corner of the teak forest also found no one. Even they had to rent big lights to illuminate every corner of the village to ensure the existence of the spreader of terror.

“The man of the murder is no longer there. Disappear like a demon! If it was hiding in the house of one of the residents, they would have been dead,” said an officer.

The residents themselves have started venturing out of the house, and they have not found any relatives, friends, relatives, friends, or other neighbors who are missing or injured. That's a sign ‘pener’ stopped working.

But, is it possible?

Aditya is not sure. He still feels he needs to be vigilant. Ratna is like that too. When Garin's body was taken by hospital staff to be taken care of, Ratna was visibly angry and at the same time sad.

“The person must avenge the deaths of the citizens here, as well as the death of Garin.” That's what Ratna said.

Aditya could do nothing but comfort her. Garin is Ratna's best friend from a very young boy. Now, Aditya whose wounds have not been properly maintained begins to look painful.

“Ah, dammit!” his gerrick.

Ratna said, “Still sick? Here, let me check again.”

It was then that Uncle Salim went out to buy food for Aditya, Yusi, Deri, and Ratna.

Ratna again said, “This should be taken to the hospital, Dit.”

“Not until the madman we catch. I'm not sure the vile killer has just left this village,” said Aditya.

“Yes, I was the same,” replied Ratna while observing the wound behind Aditya's bandage.

Deri said, “What did he come here for and kill so many innocent people? Then, just leave? Impossible!”

They didn't realize Uncle Salim was going outside.

Uncle Salim instantly collapsed before even leaving the courtyard of the house.

The neighbors who were nearby immediately ran in all directions, saving themselves each without anyone daring to approach Uncle Salim who was somehow shot in which part. No gunshots were heard, but they knew there was blood on Uncle Salim's body.

“Please! The killer is coming again!” shouted one citizen.

Aditya is shocked and runs out of the house, finding the uncle lying either alive or dead.

He didn't care about the wound on his chest that was still painful. He immediately picked up his uncle to enter the living room. Uncle Salim was shot in the chest, but he looked fine.

“Quick open his shirt!” ratna's orders were immediately carried out by Deri.

Aditya could only sit limp to see his uncle might be on the verge of death.

“Oh, thank goodness. Shot not in the fatal part, but still Uncle could have run out of blood,” said Ratna trying to calm Uncle Salim.

“I can still be saved?” ask Uncle Salim worried/

“Yes, I will try, Uncle,” Ratna said.

Just then Uncle Salim saw sincerity in Ratna's eyes. To be honest, from the second that he was helped by the girl, Uncle Salim felt a feeling of liking for her. Unfortunately, Aditya has been betrothed to Frita. Bizarrely. He and Frita are still ‘learn’ to like each other, while here, a terrible incident makes him suddenly like it just like Ratna.

However, Uncle Salim said nothing.

“After all this is not the affair of Aditya romance? I have no business at all. Parents like me only make it hard to manage their feelings, right?” inner Uncle Salim.

Lucky Ratna's help wasn't late. Uncle Salim was rescued. He almost died, but survived and made Aditya relieved. He even hugged Ratna very tightly. A hug that makes the woman happy, but at the same time sad.

“We will hunt the man in my own way,” Aditya said.

“What do you do, Dit?” said Ratna who had just returned from the kitchen that afternoon.

“Quiet. I asked you to look after uncle. I don't want you to get hurt like us,” Aditya said as he pulled Ratna's arm away from Yusi and Deri. Uncle Salim was in the room, so he couldn't possibly hear their chat either.

“What do you mean? I can intervene to help you!” reply Ratna.

“I already have some help. They're coming tonight. Now I don't need you to get hurt or fucked, Ratna. I want you to stay safe with Uncle Salim,” said Aditya who suddenly looks moody.

“Why?” ask Ratna worriedly.

“Entah. I'm not sure if I'm going to live this time. Clearly, this thought let only the two of us know.”

“You don't say that! You're still alive, Dit! He is just one. That samurai must have died in your hands!” ratna said with annoyance.

“Ya, hopefully.”

“But, who is the help power you mean?” ask Ratna curiously.

“Night Squad. They've been coming here since this morning at the request of my future father-in-law. Later at night arrive in this village.”

Hearing the name of the Night Squad, Ratna felt a little relieved and agreed that she would not follow the hunt for the samurai, but keep Uncle Salim at home.

Time passed too. Seconds change minutes. Minutes change hours. The sun came down and left darkness. That was when the Night Squad knocked on the door.

“Baskara is great. We are not lost, even if you give an incomplete address,” Teo said as the first greeting to Aditya.

“Yeah, after all Commander Malik already knows exactly where this house is located,” Aditya replied.

They rested for a while, before being ready to divide their respective tasks in the living room.

“I've drawn a few schemes here,” Aditya said as he opened a piece of written paper that he had scrawled with stripes and letters and numbers.

The Night Squad gathered around him. Yusi and Deri too.

“This we split?” ask Nancy.

“Ya,” says Aditya.

Then he divided the tasks of who should be where, and what they should do.

“We can definitely fool that savage samurai. In my way, I think, this is the last chance for us,” Aditya told them.

“We cannot fail, yes?” ask Baskara.

“Tak can.”

“Oke, means, we must not fail! I can make sure my job runs smoothly!” charlie said with great enthusiasm.

They nodded in unison.

It was 20:00 WIB. The atmosphere of the village was already very quiet, far from the custom in Sumber Kencana Village. All because of this Japanese.

“Now you will swallow the consequences of your crime, bastard!” inner Aditya while imagining the face of Takeshi Yobu.

Seriate...
