Chapter 18

On the way home, Naresh spoke a lot, while Malaika answered only one or two words. Meanwhile, Grandma Romlah was silent while listening. 

When in the middle of the road precisely at the intersection, there was a vehicle that hit the car owned by the man from behind. It shocked all three passengers.

The car that hit it immediately turned its direction to the left. Neither Naresh nor Malaika could see the license plate, just the type of car and the color.

"Who is that? Was he doing it intentionally or was it just an accident?" malaika asked while looking towards Naresh.

The man could not answer, as he too had hired some men to secretly investigate who had planted the bomb in his car first. There is a feeling that occurred if the incident just now was the terror of people who wanted to harm him.

"I don't know. Hopefully it was just an accident because he was in a hurry" Naresh said with a faint smile.

Malaika could see from the eyes of her friend, if anything was hidden. However, the girl couldn't forcefully tell him what exactly was going on.

Arriving at the contract, Malaika was immediately told to rest by Naresh to recover quickly. Actually, the girl wanted to talk about something, but it seemed that her friend was in a hurry to leave again, so she undoes her intentions.

Naresh meets Pandu, who is asked to investigate the accident first. The man had a meeting in one of his apartments.

"How's it?" naresh asked as they sat facing each other.

"I've been told that a week before someone had bought ammonium nitrate, the most likely and easily made commercial explosive and some other material that could be made to make bombs, it was bought from several places. Maybe to cover his tracks," explained Pandu while handing over some chips containing videos of the perpetrators who bought the materials.

"Do you know who it is?" ask Naresh again after receiving the report file.

"For that yet, because the face of the offender is not so clear. It's just that it can be ascertained that he is a man with left-handed hands," replied Pandu and it made Naresh surprised. 

"Kidal?"

"Yes. I've checked the video a few times and the guy always uses his left hand if he does something. Like opening and closing a door. Take the wallet and when paying. Also when carrying groceries. However, there is something strange in my opinion."

"What's that?" 

Naresh grew curious about the figure that harmed him. What's the problem between them.

"The man walked every time he went to that chemical shop. All the shops he went to were far away from each other. Moreover, the Xixi store was in the next town. However, he did not use the vehicle when it came to the store."

"Maybe he doesn't have a vehicle?"

Pandu also initially thought that way. Then, look for cctv at the terminal, station, or ojek base. However, it did not appear that the man had gone to a public transportation. Unless he takes a taxi online. However, from the cctv footage in front of the store, the man walked until he was no longer visible from the camera.

"Thank you, Pandu. I wonder what information Thunder will bring, later. I hope this case gets revealed soon."

Naresh told me about what happened earlier. The man asked Pandu to investigate. This is felt by Naresh still has something to do with the incident of terror for him.

Malaika was surprised by the arrival of Abimana who came to her contract. The step-cousin from Naresh came to visit.

"Mala, this is the one who helped you yesterday. Grandma just found out that she was Naresh's cousin, just like Maheswara," Granny Romlah said, smiling at Abimana.

"I'm sorry that I don't really care about the Malaika family. Because we only know each other and are not as close as Naresh. So, I just greeted grandma that night," Abimana replied politely.

Malaika only knew Abimana could joke, because as far as she knew him, this man was quiet and talkative. The opposite of Naresh and Maheswara. How to talk to Grandma Romlah is also flexible and smooth like Naresh who has known and close to the old woman for a long time.

"Oh, yes. There's something I want to give to Grandma Romlah" Abimana said as she pulled out an envelope from behind her suit.

"What's that?" ask Grandma Romlah curious.

"This is the land certificate belonging to the grandmother's house. I managed to redeem it from Mr. Juwanto, "Abimana replied while handing over a coffee-colored envelope.

Grandma Rom's hand shook as she opened the envelope. Tears immediately rolled down her already wrinkled cheeks. Disbelief enveloped the old woman's feelings. All this time he prayed if he could get back the house of the deceased husband. I did not know that now that desire was fulfilled.

"But, grandma doesn't have the money to pay in exchange" Grandma Romlah said.

"How much money did you spend? I will change as soon as possible" asked Malaika looking at me towards Abimana. The girl who was still weak was recalling how much money was in her savings balance.

"You don't have to pay or return the money. I do this sincerely," replied the handsome-looking man, but rarely smiled.

"I feel bad if I just take it for granted," Malaika said with a sigh.

"Right, that's Nak Abi. At least we can repay this kindness. Is there something Nak Abi wants from us?" ask Grandma Romlah.

Is Abiman sincerely helping Malaika or is there a shrimp behind the rock? Is there anything Abimana wants from the Malaika family? Wait for it to go, yeah!
