Episode 198: Gifts

“Huuh!” Naresh breathed his heavy breath. He was in the back passenger seat. While Jun is driving this car. They had just attended two funerals this early. Naresh gave the final rest to Sirena and her Ceo.

“All has been revealed, Jun. I can't believe the perpetrator of this murder is Dom.” Naresh is shocked to learn that Dom, one of his drivers, committed the two murders. But the perpetrator was found dead.

“I didn't expect either, Mr. Yori. I feel sorry for my best friend, why he would kill. If he was told, then asked by whom?” Jun also felt the same distress. He was friends with a murderer. “Dom died after his wife in died in a coma.”

“What is possible if Dom kills for money? I think the salary for him is enough for all that. But why would he want to do this heinous job?”

There have been a lot of questions going on in Naresh lately. Jun could see just how disheveled and depraved his young master was. He could feel his body and mind draining to the point that Naresh was unconscious. Jun decided not to disturb his master. Today he was assigned to escort Naresh to the city of Milepolis.

“Patience, Sir. Today will be a good day.”

Jun remains focused on driving. He could predict it would be until the night.

A black car with the distinctive sticker of an online taxi at the front to distinguish between private vehicles or vehicles carrying passengers, it stops in front of the stop. Anneline ordered it this afternoon. He was a little nervous because only this time he left without anyone's company.

“With Mbak Anneline, yes?” ask the taxi driver online.

“Iya, Tu—I mean, yes Sir.” Anneline is slightly mispronouncing. He forgot, the Lord's call is very rare here. It has also long not called with the greeting ‘pak’.

“Please enter,” tell that online taxi driver.

Anneline's a little clumsy. He used to be opened by maids when in Zen City. Now he has to open the car door for himself. Long enough Anneline understood this kind of condition.

After Anneline was steadily sitting behind the wheel, Anneline took her breath trying as quietly as possible. Today his heart was quite agitated and there was an overwhelming fear of great bias.

“Mbaknya not original here huh?” ask the online taxi driver who has driven his car away from its original place.

Again the question from the driver made Anneline gasp. He was more nervous than usual. If it were in Zen City, he would not get this kind of pleasantries.

“I'm from out of town, Mr.” Anneline answered for quite a while as if the vocabulary in her head had disappeared for an instant. It becomes slower if it does everything on its own. Even to plan this afternoon alone he had to lie to Kinanti again.

“Oh yes, Where are the maks going? You see, the address of the Mbaknya is less clear. This is going to the city park?” The driver broke Anneline's nervousness.

“Eh! Sa-I want to go to the kitchenware store.”

“Mbak want to buy what? It looks like Mama is confused. Relax Ma'am, I must transfer to where Mbak.” is going The driver could read the faces of his passengers who looked confused and frightened. I don't know what he's thinking.

“I have just moved and do not have a bus card because I am still a new person. I need kitchen utensils, You can drive me where can buy kitchen utensils?” Anneline felt this overly friendly driver, more precisely too noisy.

“Oke I deliver to department store yes, Mbak.” The driver drove up his car and turned to a slightly narrow road.

Anneline just nodded. He just threw his eyes on the street.

Fifteen minutes later. Anneline's taxi stopped at a large store. Now it's time to take a piece of money out of his bag. But his hand suddenly touched a familiar object. He closed his eyes, to hold off the thing.

The driver who was a little suspicious of the flurry of his confused passengers stirred up the contents of his bag. He was afraid the passenger could not pay. “There's a problem, Ma'am?”

The online taxi driver also gawked in shock when his passengers gave away hundreds of thousands of dollars. Though the cost of argo is only twenty thousand, but the passengers give five times what should be received.

Anneline looked at the large department store. His heart is beating faster. “I have to find what I need.”

Anneline knows, it's gonna be a little later tonight. He decided to keep looking for what he wanted. In the crowd, he felt very scared. Not because it mingles with many people, but in the bag that he sashes there is a revolver whose tube contains one bullet. He brought it from Zen City when he left a week ago. Now he should be careful and be as calm as possible.

Anneline walked towards the shelf selling kitchen utensils. Right standing in the row of knives, his lips formed an arc of a smile that was hard to decipher. His eyes saw the glint of a blade that could reflect his own shadow. Without a second thought, Anneline picked up a very sharp knife. He went straight to the cashier to pay for it.

The payment process made Anneline interested in one of the women who was wrapping gifts. “Can I order to wrap a gift there?” ask Anneline while referring to the work she means.

“True, Sister. Sister just pay for the gift paper later my friend who will wrap it,” said the cashier.

After the payment was completed, Anneline immediately brought the knife she chose to the gift packaging place. He had to wait for a young mother whose tone was very high. Again, patience must be felt. After five minutes, the young mother had gotten what she wanted. Next up is Anneline. He pointed at the newly purchased knife, the employee was a little surprised to see the knife wrapped in a plastic bag thrust at him.

“I want this knife wrapped with a beautiful gift box,” said Anneline without hesitation.

Karyawati wrapping gift swallowing salivanya. Indeed the distance between her face the draped knife was so far away, but the woman's gaze seemed to want to prey on him. “I-iya.”

“I want to use the best gift box, because, it's a gift for my friend.”

The karyawati wrapping gift nodded. He took a gift box with a teal color motif. Deftly the workwoman put the knife into the box. He felt strange about the attitude of the long-haired woman who ordered a knife for a gift.

Did anyone give a gift to his friend but it was a knife?

The mind of the workwoman wanders. But his hands should wrap the gift neatly. In less than five minutes, the gift is ready to change hands. “This Brother. The card is already.”

Anneline nodded. He gave a hundred thousand dollars to the woman wrapping the gift. “Thank you.” He hurriedly took the gift city that contained the knife and put it in a sling bag. After that, Anneline rushed away from this convenience store. He should book a taxi immediately.

The employee wrapping the gift was stunned because the money was given too much. The intention of the day wanted to catch up, but the woman was already gone. Even his shadow was not visible.

“Ah. His name is windfall, can not refuse.” The lady wrapping the gift took a hundred thousand dollars to put in her pants pocket. He replaced that one with his five thousand dollars.

Hi, how are you?

I hope you're good news. Thank you for waiting for this story to continue. I'm sure, readers would be surprised to see my novel with the END strip. Nothing, I was deliberately waiting in line for the cover letter was over. No need to worry, if the brothers have “favorite” this novel, surely when the new episode update, brother will receive a notification.

Some days I feel disappointed because, novels rarely get a promotion. Yes, maybe the story is much different from most. Romance novels have a murder scene. It's strange! Unusual! Not logical!

It's nothing, it's not in Indonesia. A city that exists only in the author's mind. I would like to thank all of you who are still reading this novel. I hope to be faithful until the end.

Don't forget to like, comment and vote. If it hasn't been a novel rating, give it 5 stars. Ngenes highly only can 4.3 doang🤣🤣🤣

Thank you, man, thank you,

Warm regards

Ilamy Harsa's.🍀
