Today Dr. Arka is handling a new case. He had to autopsy a body that could be said to be special. The body of this 20-year-old girl was stretched stiff in a stainless tub in front of her. This girl is reportedly the one that Prof Helmi-senior dr. Arka- recruited. There's a reason for what, which makes this body not autopsied by Prof Helmi himself. That is why, this body ended up in the hands of Dr. Arka and his team for autopsy.
After praying together, Dr Arka began to examine every inch of the body. He tries not to let anyone get missed. The official procedure is done very carefully. The autopsy process this time lasted quite a long time because the man repeatedly checked and matched it with the records he got from the police.
The death of this body was estimated between 8-9 hours ago. A market janitor, found this girl lying near a big garbage tub. From the initial note mentioned there is a possibility that this girl became a victim of robbery because of the absence of personal belongings of victims around her.
The cause of death is caused by a lack of oxygen supply to the lungs and brain. Seeing the bruises around the neck of the body, and also the broken collarbone, it is certain that the death toll was strangled. There were no signs of violence, either physical or sexual.

Bella gazes at the arrival of a young girl who recently stole her attention. The young girl often came during lunch break to buy a piece of bread and also bottled drinks. From the uniform he was wearing it was seen that the girl was working in a hospital not far from here. At first Bella did not pay any special attention to the girl. One day he saw the girl suddenly pale and almost lost consciousness when he accidentally touched the hand of another buyer who happened to be picking up a drink at the showcase.
From then on Bella paid special attention every time the girl came.
********
It's been a few days that the girl hasn't shown up in front of Bella. Until one afternoon, just as Bella's working hours were over, the girl came. As they walk side by side towards the door to get out, the girl accidentally touches Bella's hand. A surprised look was clearly drawn on his face. And in a matter of seconds, the girl's body slid to the floor. Bella immediately kicked the girl out, and sat her in one of the chairs in front of the minimarket.
"Thank you." said the girl
Bella just nodded and returned to the minimarket. When he came out, he brought 2 pieces of tea drinks in a box. One he thrust at the girl who still looked pale and took a seat in front of the girl.
"Here, drink first" Bella said
The girl smiled at a glance and began to open her drink.
"Well, is there nothing?" Ask Bella again
The girl looked at him and nodded.
"Thank you." he said again
"I'm Bella" Bella said, introducing herself
The girl was silent for a moment before replying.
"I'm Ara. I'm sorry, maybe I've made you surprised.."
An awkward atmosphere filled the atmosphere around the two girls. Before it was finally broken by the word Bella.
"You sick? Shall I take you to the hospital?" tanyakanya.
Ara just shook her head slowly. He hesitated to talk to Bella. For some reason, there is something in Bella that scares her. Plus what he saw, when he touched the girl just now.
"Be afraid, I have no evil intentions" Bella suddenly said and chuckled
Ara was still silent, before finally opening her voice.
Both of Bella's eyebrows were raised.
"What do you mean by "look at me" Bella asked by making quotes in the air using her fingers.
" Nobody's gonna believe what I said to Bella.. Maybe you too" said Ara
"Just try it" Bella challenged him
Ara breathed a long breath.
"I can see the state of a person at the time of death will pick up just by touching that person. But just now, when I touched you, I saw nothing but darkness" Ara replied trying to be honest.
Bella just stared silently into Ara's eyes.
"I can't decide whether to believe what you say or not" Bella said.
"I expected it" answered Ara.
The girl then stood up.
"I go home first, make a drink" said Ara
Bella just nodded. After Ara disappeared from the range of her vision, Bella smiled.
"Crazy girl.." he said
**********
The next moment, Bella and Ara became close. Both have the same curiosity. Bella who is curious if Ara has gone crazy and Ara who is curious, why she only saw a dense darkness when touching Bella.

dr. Arka submitted the autopsy report to Yandri. Yandri is a police officer tasked with investigating the case.
"Poor girl" lirih Yandri
"You know him too?" Ask Dr. Arka
Yandri nodded
"This girl plays an important role in uncovering several deadlocked cases. He has abilities that normal humans do not have. Unfortunately, his life had to come to a halt in an unexpected way"
dr. Arka just silently looked at the face of his interlocutor. Not long after, Yandri stood up, and left the forensic doctor's room.
