SAFAZAR (Pursuing the Love of Mr. Prosecutor)

SAFAZAR | CHAPTER 43

“Om, the stock is depleted, yes. This isn't Safa, anyway. You see, Mommy is angry if Safa follows the cook. He said boisterous,” Safa said as she put her lips together.

Edzar stared at the old bulldozer on his desk. For the first time the girl had been supplying food before Edzar left. Like that one example. Even his face was the first Edzar had seen since he opened the gate.

Without being asked her brain replayed Dian's conversation yesterday. Has Edzar gone too far on his presuppositions?

Geck, tok, tok.

“Log in!”

Edzar justifies his sitting while ending daydreaming. Doni's coming in with some files in hand. Keep it on the table and then step on the chair, staring at Edzar who began to flip through the pages containing criminal records.

“This is an accident case involving the artist ‘kan?”

Doni nodded, “True.”

“Team investigator who gave this? Fast once.”

“Iya, Sir. Maybe they work during the night and do not sleep,” replied Doni origin.

“OK. Later I check again before being sent to PN.”

PN (State Court)

Edzar took care of the file that Doni brought back, keeping it in the drawer for a while.

“Pak, Bernadin is ready to meet you,” said Doni suddenly made Edzar look up.

“This is the place.” Doni pulled out a paper with an address. Edzar stopped his activities for a moment to look.

“He met you?”

“Not. Her confidant who came secretly to me.”

“Good. Not in vain we follow it all the way to the cinema.”

Edzar photographed the paper tear before burning it with a screech. Doni stared at it all in silence, he knew Edzar was very careful. Edzar will not allow anything that could be a gap for some people. Including this. Moreover, Edzar had long been eyeing the opportunity to meet Bernadin.

“Prepare yourself. We'll leave tonight. As per his wish.”

Doni just nodded. What could he be? He worked under Edzar.

“Ah Yes, Doni.” Edzar stopped Doni from standing up.

Doni raised an eyebrow asking, “Iya? Why, Sir? Can I help you again?”

Edzar was silent for a moment. Actually, he was a bit hesitant to ask this. But he couldn't find the answer himself, he needed someone else's opinion on this.

“Pak?” call Doni.

Edzar cleared his throat before speaking.

“According to you, what percentage of young woman's loyalty is the percent?”

A few seconds before Doni woke up.

“Ya?”

“Bapak said what just now?”

Actually Doni heard, but he didn't understand.

Edzar shook his hand to look away. “Forget. Assume you didn't hear.”

‘Didn't hear how, sir? Obviously the question made me kepo. If you don't want to say what is nanya?’ Doni grumbled in his heart.

\=\=\=

As per the agreement, Edzar and Doni will meet Bernadin in an elite hotel area of Jakarta. Exactly at 19:00 WIB. As it is written in the paper that Edzar burned.

At this time they had arrived at the parking lot, but were still silent in the car. Before long someone's silhouette approached, Doni was the first to realize how straight his body was.

“Pak, that's Bernadin's right hand,” point it out with an eye glance.

Edzar and Doni went down, rushing to follow the person in question. That person directs them to a private space, a kind of private space reserved for the upper class.

After a long search, Edzar was able to deal directly with Bernadin, one of the funders of a large project involving a state official.

They were welcome to sit down and be treated to various dishes, Edzar staring at it all flatly. He knew it was Bernadin's only strategy to buy time. Although Edzar did not like to wait but well, for this time he was willing to lower his standard of capability a little.

“Sorry, I'll fill my stomach first. You guys eat, all the best dishes in this hotel.”

Bernadin started eating his dinner. Doni glanced at Edzar. The dish in front of him does look delicious, but Doni will not eat if Edzar has not made a movement. Hey, his instincts aren't as strong as Edzar's in reading situations. There could be poison in this food.

Unexpectedly Edzar took a glass of wine and drank it. Doni understood indirectly the man told her that the food was clean and safe. Do not ask how Edzar knew, for he did not understand himself.

Forget about the man's miraculous ability, it was better for Doni to immediately taste the luxurious banquet in front of him. When else could he eat such an expensive meal. Doni is not the rich Edzar. He's just a prosecutor with a mediocre salary.

30 Minutes passed filled only with the clang of spoons and small talk, more precisely the unimportant babble Bernadin who occasionally responded to Doni. Edzar was faithful to his feet. He touched nothing but wine. His hands were closed waiting for the two to finish their meal.

His calm attitude could not be separated from Bernadin's attention. Since coming here the man has been more silent. But Bernadin did not deny there was a strong aura of decisiveness. It secretly made Bernadin a little interested in the youngster in front of him. In any respect Edzar seems to stand out, the type of man who is very dominant and unyielding.

After eating, Bernadin wiped his mouth with a handkerchief. The man with a slightly puffy stomach justifies his sitting position. His eyes began to look at Edzar straight until the atmosphere gradually serious. Doni could feel the difference in the air around him. He was ready to listen to the conversation that would take place between the two people.

“Why should you bother like this? Seeking me. Isn't it the investigator's job to find a witness?”

Edzar was silent for a moment before then calmly answering. “Because I am happy to work in my own way.”

Bernadin's eyebrows raised, “Not because you don't believe in them?”

“Whatever it is, in this case I can be a prosecutor as well as an investigator if needed.”

Silent. Eve in the room was suddenly a little uncomfortable. Bernadin's head nodded slowly. His gaze could not be seen Edzar fixedly.

“Attractive young man. Too bad you're even bothered with something like this. Why not just focus on developing a more profitable business?”

Edzar was not surprised that Bernadin knew of his livelihood other than in the realm of law. It is certain that the man investigated it first.

“About where I work it's none of your business. I came here to draw you as a witness. Please cooperate.”

Bernadin chuckled at his wine. The situation was again filled with silence. Doni who had been silent since then did not dare to make a sound.

“What are my advantages following you?”
