THE GENIUS MAN

11. Fires

At midnight, Barra hasn't slept. He was constantly agitated at the thought of the situation in his home. He went for a walk to check every room in the lab. Read a science book that caught his attention.

"They have a lot of useful books here. Did I bring one to collect at home?" said Barra who checked which book was most interesting to her.

"It's called stealing, I can't do it. But if one is also okay." said Barra who pulled a light blue book written with the sentence: Herbal Medicine healers all diseases.

Barra then put the book in her jacket and walked around to continue her steps. When he reached the middle room, he saw Banda who was still tied up. Barra's chest felt crowded imagining if the Princess would be like that later.

"Banda is still newly infected, but has become savage like this. Sindi and the Princess are still fine. Is it true that a person's body cells are affecting him?" asked Barra who walked over to the sleeping Banda.

"They are still human. The clock is asleep. What exactly is going on?" barra was confused.

Barra opened the book she picked up and read some plants that could cure various diseases.

"Banda's nails are blackened and his skin is pale. The aroma of the most warm plants is very suitable for him. Added plants in the forest that are often used as herbal medicine" said Barra who read.

"Is that all?" asked Barra who was hesitant. Barra then deviated back from his book and examined the condition of Banda's body. Barra uses a body temperature gauge to figure out what Barra's current body temperature is.

"Minus 29°." Barra was amazed to see the test results. He even thinks the gauge is broken. "What is Banda a mermaid until her body temperature is as cold as it wants. It's really weird." said Barra who laughed to himself.

Suddenly, Barra had a brilliant idea. He then collects firewood and makes a fire to warm Banda's body. Slowly, slowly, Banda's sweat poured out. Barra still watched him. Not long after, Banda fell asleep without making another sound. Likewise with Barra who immediately fell asleep because of drowsiness.

Next Day...

The sun was shining until the light shone on every corner of the labotarium. Barra was still sleeping soundly because it had become a habit to wake up late. But something was bothering Barra. He seems to be in a prick.

"Ah, don't bother me. I still want to sleep." said Barra without opening her eyes. He just turned his body in the other direction.

Now, the stabbing feeling is no longer in his stomach. But on his back. Barra who was upset then opened her eyes while waking up. Not yet had time to get angry, Barra ran leaning against the wall when he saw Banda who stabbed himself with a lidi.

"Ka.. The ka.. You you? ba.. How come?" ask Barra who stammered.

At the same time, Sindi and Putri came down from Walvin's room and saw that Banda, who was already loose, was no longer bound.

"Baa.. Ba.. The banda!" sindi's shout made the Princess run to hide behind her.

"What's? Why do you see me like that? Am I a ghost?" sahut Banda with an annoyed face.

"Can you talk?" point at Barra who was shocked and still confused.

"Why? Can't I talk? Only small children can't talk." replied Banda while sitting in a chair not far from her.

"Unbelievably, you can heal that fast. How's it?" sindi asked who came down to Banda.

"Did he forget the memory, Bang?" whispered the Princess who asked Barra.

"Of course, he still looks like normal. But what happened until he recovered so quickly? Not even had time to take medicine." explained Barra who did not believe. Barra continued to look at Banda feeling astonished.

"You contracted a strange disease and turned into a monster. So scientists have to lock us up here by tying us up. Luckily there are still Princesses and Barra who help us." explains Sindi who clenched her hands in anger.

"So that's what happened. I don't even remember anything that happened. I'd hardly recognize Barra if it wasn't for the book she was hiding" Banda said.

"That's weird. You're stricken with a strange illness and don't remember anything when you wake up. Is there someone who deliberately makes drugs like this so that all infected patients forget about themselves and make them monsters?" barra asked after a long moment of silence from shock.

"Can be. Is this the case of the ******* who wants to seize our place?" peech Sindi.

"It's impossible.*******so cruel to make such a big deal" said the frightened Princess. But did not dare to approach Barra because her brother did not wear protective clothing.

"We'd better get out of here before the scientists get you back. My feelings have been bad since yesterday" said Barra, who rushed to pick up her belongings, preparing to leave.

Elsewhere, someone sat in his swivel chair while contacting his men. "So, how? Did they get to where I told you yesterday?" ask the man while raising his feet on his desk.

"Already, sir. They're watching things and looking for an opportunity to burn the old labotarium" explained someone from across the phone.

"Then, work quickly. I have to report to superiors after their duties are done." he ordered.

"Good, sir. I'll tell them to act immediately" he said, hanging up the phone call.

Tut's.. Tut's.. Tut's..

In front of the labotarium, five were carrying fuel. They then water the place and then start a fire to burn this labotarium. The fire continued to spread rapidly until it invited traffic jams.

While in the labotarium, there are still some people who have not come out. Barra was watching her sister get ready. Suddenly there was a smell of smoke and when Barra came out black smoke surrounded everywhere.

"What's up, bang?" asked the Princess who saw Barra enter in a hurry.

"Someone deliberately set this labotarium on fire. We must leave immediately through the back door before the fire starts to get out of control." replied Barra who told the Princess.

Barra then tore off the cloth he was carrying and split it in half. Then water the cloth before it is given to the Princess. "Cover your nose with this cloth so you don't suffocate. Don't forget to stay behind me no matter what." Barra ordered.

"What about the others, bang? Can Sindi and Banda survive too?" ask the Princess who worries more about others than she does.

"Save yourself and think of someone else. In an emergency, the fire can spread quickly and devour us." explains Barra who sounded dislike.

The two of them then came out quickly while walking very carefully. Moreover, the roof of the labotarium had burned first and could have fallen over Princess and Barra.
