Murderer

CHAPTER 24 - Death of Angelica (Revised)

Andrian intended to examine Angelica's condition, but he only found a lifeless cold body lying with eyes open on the bed. He immediately called the police officer who was supposed to be standing guard at the door of Angelica's room, because when she came, none of them were there.

"Look! Where are you guys from!?" hardik Andrian was angry while pointing at Angelica's body.

One of them called for help through a walkie talkie, they were cheated twice and this time the killer completely finished off Angelica's life neatly without anyone knowing.

The image came together with Banyu Aji and Faisal. When he saw someone who came along with Citra and Faisal, Andrian's countenance changed — he was pale and uncomfortable with the presence of Banyu Aji there.

The tail of Banyu Aji's eyes glanced at Andrian full of mystery and it made Andrian inching away, but his steps were held back by Citra. "Where are you going, Dr. Andrian?" ask Citra.

Andrian stopped and turned to the origin of the voice. His eyes were against Citra's hazel irises.

Highlight those eyes, he must have been very suspicious of me at this time, Andrian said in his heart. "I just want to give forensic officers space." This doctor finally chose to lie to Citra.

He kept glancing at Banyu Aji, even though Citra's colleague smiled at him, Andrian still felt an unpleasant aura from the person.

"Can you explain the chronology of this incident?" ask the image to Andrian.

"I intended to check on Angelica, but when I came in, it was like this" Andrian said. Eyebrow Citra rose next to him, he was clearly seen if he did not believe the testimony of the person before him.

"How could a murderer enter while there are two guards at the door?" cecar Citra while tidying up her hair ties.

"Maybe it's better if you ask these questions to your people. Because I was also astonished when I did not find a single guard in front of Angelica's room."

Bara turned to them, she pointed towards the scratches on Angelica's palm and back. "The scratches on each victim's skin were meticulously made, the depth and pressure he exerted on all of the victims was the same and he was definitely very good at using a scalpel," bara said while continuing to take photos of Angelica's body.

The entire room simultaneously turned towards the origin of the sound of the door opening violently. Mr. Freddy is seen standing on a single stick, his wife is seen trying to hold the body of the husband so as not to fall by supporting his body on the lip of the door.

"A — Angeli ...." Miss Winda did not continue her words and immediately cried loudly.

"Based on you incompetent cops!" snapped Mr. Freddy in a trembling voice as it restrained his anger.

"Sorry, Sir. We've been distracted" said Faisal, trying to calm the mayor.

"Teledor said!? It's not a teledor, but indeed you guys are not becus and negligent!" maki Mr. Freddy. They understood the pain that this man was feeling. The married couple — only has Angelica as their child, it is no secret that they both love their adopted daughter very much.

Ms. Winda will approach her daughter's body, but forbidden by officers, Banyu Aji approached the aging woman while trying to calm her down. "We'll be sure to catch the killer soon!" banyu Aji told Bu Winda and wished this woman a little more calm.

Although no longer crying roared, Miss Winda still sobbing. Banyu aji rubbed the shoulders of the mayor's mother. "Silence, Mom. We'll make sure we catch the culprit." Continue to keep trying to entertain Miss Winda

Mr. Freddy's eyes peeked at Banyu Aji cynically. "You guys are just big mouths! In the end you let Angelica die!" hardik Mr. Freddy is desperate.

The room became quiet, only the sound of cameras and forensic camera blitz lights were alternating. Citra, Faisal and Banyu Aji are like out of words, this time — hearts Imagra jumbled with this incident. It has been confirmed that Mr. Freddy will be a victim later.

“Pak Mayor, sorry if I may suggest, Father and Mother better find a safe place first ...."

"You're telling me to run away from that crazy psychopath?" cut Mr. Freddy's emotions.

"B—it's not like that, sir! We're just worried about your safety" Citra refuted.

"If he wants to kill me, just kill me! Don't hurt the people I love!" he shouted, "I'll wait for him to come, let's just look at me or him who will die first!"

Being a forensic doctor is not Bara's ideal, in fact he wants to be a surgeon, it's just — he got lost in his goal. Andrian was Bara's classmate in college, but they were not familiar enough, no matter how rarely they did. Bara let out a heavy sigh and he then began to examine the already cold body.

"The coal!" the sound made Bara shocked and almost dropped the tweezers he was holding.

"God! Your hobby surprises people!" his grunts again concentrated on Angelica's corpse.

Faisal was just grinning. "Bar, did you see the inspector from the Police who came with us?" ask Faisal.

"Hm ...." Bara cleared his throat to answer Faisal's question, he did not turn his head towards his interlocutor at all.

"I feel suspicious of him."

Bara's eyebrows rose though still not looking. "Suspected for what?" He asked briefly.

"He's trying to make Iptu Citra as difficult as it seems."

"You mean?"

"Come ...."

"You're talking about me?" Suddenly a heavy voice belonging to Iptu Banyu Aji was heard behind them. Bara straightened her body and turned to look at Banyu Aji, she smiled faintly while Faisal lowered his head feeling uneasy.

Banyu Aji laughed out loud, he patted Faisal on the shoulder. "It's ok, it's only natural that you're worried about your boss. But don't worry, I'm not getting your boss to be fired, I just want the case to be over quickly."

Faisal felt that the thin arch on Banyu Aji's lips contained a biased meaning, and the strange thing was that Faisal was like a close acquaintance with Banyu Aji. They just met a few days ago.

"O yes, what was the cause of death?" banyu Aji asked Bara.

Bara pointed at the body with a pen tucked from earlier between the lobes of his right ear. "From the results of the external examination found signs of violence and suffocation. But from the inside examination there is no sign of abnormalities, and we also have brought a sample that is to do a poison examination, but at this time my guess is that he died due to smothering pillows," Bara explained.

Banyu Aji nodded his head several times. He examined Angelica's external wounds, then pointed her finger at the distinctive 'The Hand of God' scratch'.

"This?"

"The scratches are the same as the previous bodies. Certain bodies have scratches in the form of Bible verse quotes, while the inverted cross always appears on every body, except Andre."

"Like the report of the visa that we have submitted to the satreskrim division — Kinanti's body, Johan, Valentino and Angelica have the scratch. Whereas Cecilia only had an upside-down cross in her palm," Bara explained a little detail to Banyu Aji who had recently handled the case.

Faisal continued to pay attention to Banyu Aji. But he again bowed when the man turned to him, shortly afterwards — Banyu Aji invited Faisal back to the office. Submissively this two inspectors followed his orders.

"Wouldn't it be natural for someone who holds a grudge for so long, to brutally finish off his enemy?" banyu Aji murmured while walking in the hospital corridor. Hearing Banyu Aji's words just now, made Faisal gasp. Wasn't he a police officer, was it appropriate for him to justify a murder?

He became a little afraid of Iptu Banyu Aji, since the beginning of their meeting — Faisal already felt uncomfortableAn with the inspector of this police. There was a pressure that Faisal felt in every look Banyu Aji had on him.

Tonight, heavy rain poured into the city of Manggala, in front of the magnificent house owned by Mr. Mayor, the black civic sedan stopped and the driver observed the house from the car. Charles, he pointed the rearview mirror at his face and mirrored, the corner of his lips rose — he smiled and rather grinned, he pulled a zipper and put on his jacket hoodie, he said, and the black mask that he was holding.

This psychopath got out of the car quietly, he wanted to quickly settle their affairs with the most powerful man in the city of Manggala, because if delayed again, he wanted to finish their business with the most powerful man in the city of Manggala, Earth could have messed up the plan she had put together with someone.
