Part 50: Don't Forget Liability

"For a long time, the car's invitation?" Erwin glanced at his watch. It had been almost an hour they stood in front of Beijeng International Airport, but the promised pickup car had not yet arrived.

"We were on purpose" replied one of the men who had been with him since Jakarta, sucking his cigarette butts relaxed.

"meaning?" erwin asked raising his eyebrows.

"To anticipate the arrival of your reinforcements who followed to this city," explained the man.

Erwin was silent for a moment, then sighed. "Nothing."

The man breathed his cigarette smoke into the air, then smiled. "May your words be right."

Erwin glanced back at his watch. "I want to pray first."

"You can't go anywhere!" assault the other man, clutching Erwin's hand tightly.

"Now it has entered magrib time," Erwin replied as he glanced towards his arm that was in the grip getting stronger.

"We don't care! You can't go anywhere!"

Erwin closed his eyes holding back his almost explosive emotions. "I just want to pray, not go anywhere?"

"It could be just your excuse to call in reinforcements."

Erwin clenched his other hand. His emotions were really about to explode, but he tried to go back to temper it. "Solat is an obligation, not an excuse" Erwin said with emphasis.

The man holding Erwin's hand fell silent.

"Let go of my hand" said Erwin, trying to calm down.

"No!" sergeant the man.

"Let go, I want to pray!" Erwin slightly raised his tone to make some narrow-eyed typical Chinese people around them turn their head.

"You can't go anywhere!" said the long-haired man was firm.

Erwin really ride the apoplexy. The man who always appeared calm was finally displaying his face in front of the two foreign men Rustam's errand. "You are just dust!" umpat Erwin is upset. "Who are you to forbid people to worship!"

"You are only demons that are human."

"Wicked humans are enslaved by money."

"You justify everything just for the sake of making money. Unknowingly, living in this world has another purpose."

Erwin was still glaring sharply at the two of them, his jaw hardened, a terrifying aura appearing within Erwin's facial features. "I am sure that no matter how far you pursue treasure, you will never feel its name eternal bliss. I'm sure your lives are filled with problems. Everyone in this world must be full of problems. You're just stopping by for a drink in this world. And how dare you negate God when your purpose in life is to worship God."

"Money is just to connect your life, while every breath you take is actually to worship God."

The two men were instantly stunned.

Seeing the two people's inertia made Erwin feel relieved. He turned his body to find a place of ablution. But just five steps Erwin stepped, one of the men immediately shouted while pointing his gun.

"One more step you take, your life is lost."

Plakkkp...

Erwin smiled warmly. Although his heart felt guilty for spouting words as if he were the most holy man. Though he is also a despicable creature who is often negligent of his own religion.

"At Beijeng airport it's not like an airport in Hong Kong, sir. Here does not provide a place of prayer."

"We can pray on the waiting room floor." Erwin smiled kindly, let alone seeing the long-haired man who was slashing his long arms for ablution. Erwin wants to pray Dzuhur and Ashar prayers that have been missed because of the long journey. He also wanted to pray that he would survive all the dangers and disasters that would occur when redeeming Rena. He also hopes that Caramel, Zahra's friend, the secret agent is now around to help him.

"If you fail, I will kill you!" Rustam pointed his gun at Rian.

Rian narrowed his eyes, as only one more movement of his head would be destroyed. The child who should be in Junior High school was swallowing his saliva with difficulty.

Rustam kicked Rian's body to fall to the floor, then pointed his gun at some of his men who stood parallel like students who would be punished in front of his teacher. "I promise I will kill you all if this fails. You fooled into accepting this crazy cooperation with this kid!"

"But the kid's idea is good, sir. There were even two people at once who escorted Erwin to come here without bringing anyone. Really you will understand later after Erwin has entered the tiger cage."

"To avoid the risks that occur after Erwin knows our headquarters. We're gonna kill Erwin and his son in this place, too."

"What is important is that we have additional operational costs to run a drug network that was stopped because of too tight security on the island of Sumatra. With the money, we can make the center of government and its subordinates let our business in."

Rustam grinned widely, towards his two men.  "Tell the boy to prepare the bomb at the meeting place of Erwin and Rena for the last time."

"I don't want to, look at Erwin's face."

Not because Rustam couldn't kill Erwin. Aware of everything he had done to Erwin, the crimes he had committed, even to the point of seizing his own wife, Erwin always replied with a warm smile on his lips.

Rustam untied the bonds in Viola's body. The woman's face looks puffy because every day just crying looking for Rena. "I want to play with you" said Rustam as he rubbed the top of Viola's head.

"Where's Rena?" asked Viola in a hoarse voice.

"Rena's fine. Come on, Vi, I haven't played with you in a long time" whined Rustam.

"Take Rena here." Viola's face was completely messy.

"We play one round first" Rustam said. "Come on, baby."

"You're a criminal, you can fuck thousands of women***** in Beijing."

Rustam smiled miris. "If I wanted to, I did it every day. You remember, since high school, your body was the one I was after."

"I may be a criminal, but I have a commitment about feelings. My body is destined to be one with you, Vi." Rustam stroked Viola's cheek, Viola directly rejected his hand, disgusted.

"This job, it's all for you."

"I'm sorry to be your wife!" screech Viola while spitting at Rustam.

Rustam chuckles amusedly. "I think I should rape you again."

Seriate...
