My Cold Chef's

Bonchap - First Session

Semarang, Central Java

Mr. Rahman took Abi and Gandari to a pecel shop in the PRPP area because the man asked for pecel which made Gandari laugh.

"Mas Abi cravings?" goda Gandaria.

"Eh? Unboxing you haven't been cravings?" answer Abi cuek. Gandari hit Abi's hard shoulder. "Lho's? Is that really Ndari?"

"Maoh!" reply Gandari while crossing.

Abi. They also arrived at pecel stalls that were not too crowded and immediately ordered pecel rice complete with side dishes and crackers.

After breakfast that makes Abi gawk when he knows the price is not up to $5 for a three.

"The cheap! Delicious again!" whisper Abi to Gandari.

"Don't let us eat in New York. The raw materials are expensive. It's still cheap here." Gandari looked at Abi.

"We go straight to the state court, Abi sir?" ask Rahman after they finish eating.

"Yes Rahman sir. Mr. Travis is already there." Abi saw his phone.

"Good."

Abi and Gandari arrive at the Semarang state court on Siliwangi road. Travis was waiting there with two assistants.

"What's up bro!" greet Abi while hugging Travis.

"good. Thank goodness you're safe here" Travis smiled. "So you got Opa Duncan's plane?"

"So. You see, papi's plane was used to Tokyo."

"From, are you ready?" travis asked, shaking the girl's hand.

"God willing to be ready."

"Yuk we're in. It's about to start."

Inside the courtroom, prosecutor Bramantya and Lukman, Anggita, Iin and Joko were represented by Jerome despite the man's status as a suspect.

Captain Rashad and sergeant Kamil welcome Abi and Gandari who come. They all sat in the chairs provided.

The event began with the opening of the trial, the public prosecutor mentioned the names of the defendants and the judge asked who the defendants were because if they did not have a defense, they would be appointed by the court.

Knowing that Jerome also acted as a lawyer even though Prosecutor Bramantya objected but the presiding judge allowed it because Jerome's permission was still not revoked. Unless he's found guilty, his lawyer's license is revoked.

After administrative affairs, Bramantya Prosecutor also read the charges to the five suspects and the brains of the perpetrators, namely Lukman, Anggita and Joko. The result of further interrogation after they were beaten by Gandari by the captain of Rashad, apparently it was the idea of the three of them to take Lahita's property. At first they wanted to 'get rid of' Gavin alone but Lukman wanted the three members of the Pramudana family to disappear all because surely their property would fall into his hands.

Abi had to hold Gandari's hand tightly to beat him again but the man who looked more and more like Duncan Blair shook his head in order to make Gandari patient.

Lukman and Anggita bowed down not daring to stare at Gandari who was staring intently at all of them sitting in the accused's seat. Joko and Iin just stared blankly at Bramantya who read the indictment.

After a lengthy reading of the charges, the presiding judge asked Jerome if there was an exception (an answer to the indictment) but Jerome stated there was no exception. For him to file an exception but all the evidence incriminating him then it is the same as lying because the public prosecutor will certainly immediately refuse.

Because there was no exception, the presiding judge requested that the public prosecutor provide evidence of the crimes of the suspects. Starting from the departure of the Pramudana family to the rest area of km 429A from the Krapyak toll road. The presiding judge saw how the Innova car was being tampered with by the two men who were to be presented and they also saw Joko's face in Pajero's car when the two men got into the black car.

After that they saw how the Innova car with license plate H 1234 GD did zig zag steering like it could not be controlled. And before long, the car hit the road barrier until it rolled over. Then they saw a car stop there and the driver and passenger who were bleeding the bule helped Gandari out. Before long ambulances and towing services clan also came at the scene.

"You see Judge. From the entrance of the Krapyak toll, Innova's car was on the road without any damage but after these two people tampered with the car in the rest area, there was a malfunction. Unfortunately this car was not there 12 years ago but from here we see that defendant Joko Triyadi was in the same location when the Innova car was parked in the rest area. And we also see that Pajero Joko's car has been following Innova's car since he got out of the hospital graha Medika."

Bramantya looked at Joko sharply. "Your intentions."

Abi and Gandari gawked. Athaghfirullah! Apparently they've been following from there.

"Sir Hakim, this evidence is evidence that the death of the Pramudana family was indeed planned by the three people there, brother Lukman, brother Joko and sister Anggita. As long as you know Anggita is Joko's ex-wife who later married Lukman" continued Bramantya.

"Is there any other evidence, the public prosecutor?" ask the Chief judge.

"There is a judge. We followed where Pajero's car was after the rest area and apparently they passed the crash site." Bramantya provides CCTV images on the toll road. "Confessed Joko grinned."

Joko glared in disbelief that his face was caught by CCTV cameras scattered on the highway.

"We all know, Semarang has a lot of CCTV including roadside. And we followed the Pajero back to Semarang and the car stopped at Kawi street where it appeared that Joko was shaking hands with the defendant Anggita and the accused Lukman in front of the Pramudana family home with a laughing face happy."

The three defendants glared in disbelief.

"I also obtained CCTV from the front of your house which is an office and CCTV footage 12 years ago is still there because they stored it in the cloud. And you can see, the date of the incident Pramudana family had the same accident with CCTV footage that we took from Sapta marga and eradicated."

Abi and Gandari were surprised that not only was the evidence of Benji presented to them, but they were actually looking for evidence of their own.

The trial was later adjourned as the day was near noon at one o'clock. The presiding judge ruled the trial was conducted on Thursday by presenting witnesses including Gandari who will advance in the trial.

Abi and Gandari also approached the Rashad captain and Kamil sergeant who smiled meaningfully because they knew the two men were curious.

"I did not expect it to be followed like that, Captain Rashad" said Gandari puzzled.

"Seeing the evidence from Benji and Travis, I and the Bramantya prosecutor were curious. Then we searched and found more evidence. In fact, we were very lucky because all CCTV footage in the clan service and was set to be stored for up to 15 years was removed. The policy of the Police Chief was made during an accident on the Jagorawi toll two 14 years ago which finally revealed that it was a deliberate accident but the position of the small fiat car was hit by a Hummer" said Captain Rashad.

"Therefore we tried to trace CCTV footage 12 years ago and Alhamdulillah get a lot of incriminating evidence" said Sergeant Kamil.

"But if people are dark-eyed and greedy, all the way is done to get what they want" Abi murmured while seeing Travis talking to Bramantya.

"How long were they punished?" ask Gandari.

"Forced Bramantya anyway want to demand the death penalty of the three main suspects considering their crime is very heinous but it all depends on the judge later who determines" replied Captain Rashad.

Gandari.
