THE GENIUS MAN
5. Checkup
The sun is not yet visible, Barra is out of the house while carrying his backpack full of equipment accompanied by the Princess who is still wearing protective clothing.
"Well, is it okay to live alone without saying goodbye to her?" asked the Princess instantly made Barra think for a moment.
Honestly, Barra also felt bad until her mother looked for her who left without saying goodbye. But if you say goodbye to his mother, of course his mother will ask a lot of things. Barra was afraid to answer and her mother knew the secret she was hiding.
"Just calm down, I've sent a message to Ipul to take care of mom as long as we're not around. There is also a letter that I deliberately wrote so that mother can understand later. It's for the good of mom and you" Barra said with a rough sigh. This is the only option for him to get a whole family again. Looking for the Princess' medicine and keep her mother away from the Princess so as not to get infected.
"Let's go." said Barra who walked first, while the Princess continued to look at her house while shedding tears. It was hard for her to leave her mother alone. But it's impossible to stay there, too. If later the health party checks, the Princess ends will be found out.
The Princess and Barra continued walking through the wilderness. The air gets cooler and cooler in the morning. Moreover, the view of the sunrise from the evidence makes the Princess stunned. "That's lovely. Brother, look here." said the Princess who shouted calling Barra busy looking for plants to be used as medicine.
"What?" barra asked who was looking at her sister.
"Sunrise, Bang." replied the Princess who shouted in excitement. Barra approached her sister while looking at the sunrise.
"Good and beautiful. It's the first time I've seen her." said Barra in praise.
"Bang, the princess wants to take a photo. Later the Princess can show my mother if we're home" said the Princess who pulled her phone, trying to take pictures from the best angle.
Barra just kept quiet and let her sister do what she wanted to do. While he must focus on finding a cure for the recovery of the Princess.
After finding two different plants, Barra observed the plant before uprooting it. Barra put it in her backpack.
"Daughter, we have to go to the labotarium of scientists. Maybe from here the trip takes five hours. Do we go back to the highway and take a taxi?" ask Barra.
"Can. I won't be able to walk much longer. My body is getting tired more and more. Is this the effect of that weird disease, Bang?" said the Princess who walked over to Barra.
"Awas, keep your distance. Don't touch me." Barra warned.
"Yes, Bang. I also didn't mean to touch brother, get brother infected. Who's gonna make Princess some medicine?" sahut Princess with a pouting face.
"Just remind me, don't get upset like that. Your face is getting ugly." Barra replied with a joking laugh.
"Let's go!" the decree of Barra that goes first on the tail of the Princess who follows him from behind.
They finally reached the highway and tried to find a taxi. There were a lot of vehicles passing by but they did not stop. Probably thought that Barra was the one who wanted to plunder, especially on the edge of the forest like this.
After a long time, a passing taxi car made Barra immediately stop the taxi by waving his hand. Not that the taxi stopped, but the police car stopped. Barra tried to retreat but two police officers got out of the car.
"What's the matter, bang?" ask one of the police officers while watching Barra and the Princess take turns.
"No, sir. We both went to the city but just stopped by the forest looking for plants. Can we take a ride to the labotarium in the city?" barra asked to confirm it.
The two eyes of the police officer were shocked. They quickly opened the car door behind him and lowered their heads giving way to Barra and the Princess. "Of course I can. Today, the world lives in the hands of scientists. You must be doing research to find a cure for a strange disease that scares everyone, right?" asked the police officer with a friendly smile.
"Yes, that's how it is." replied Barra as he ascended. After the princess who only kept silent from before.
"Wait a minute" said the police officer who felt strange in the Princess's clothes.
"Why is he wearing ADP? Is there a problem with him?" ask the police officer while preventing the Princess from getting into his car.
Both of the Princess's legs shook, she was afraid that she would get caught. The princess looked at Barra while giving a code to help her.
"Sir, he had to take a dangerous plant so he used ADP" Barra said.
"Hey, don't stop the world's scientists. They are struggling to help us. Quickly enter miss, no need to listen to my friend." asked the other police officer. The Princess quickly entered while sitting near Barra.
The car drove into town. One of the policemen rang his car radio while listening.
"Imagine wherever you are. Today, we want to inform you about this strange disease that is electrifying the world. The number of people infected has reached tens of millions. Every day is increasing. Scientists are trying to find a cure for this problem we face. For that reason, everyone is prohibited from leaving the house if it is not for an emergency. The police also helped by checking every street to find the infected person. If found, the person will be immediately taken to a special quarantine place. Thank you for watching all of you, keep your health in order not to get infected."
The radio station died making the Princess afraid. In front of them was a police officer who checked every passenger passing by. Many people were forcibly pulled out of their cars because they were declared infected.
"Truly stupid everybody. Already knew he was infected, still wandering." said the police officer who saw the incident.
"Yes, add to our work. If it is not prevented, then more people are infected" said the other police.
"Bang, how's this? If they checked me and I was declared infected, would I also be dragged like them?" whispered the Princess with trembling hands and feet. His eyes looked sad, wanting to cry.
"Please calm down" said Barra, who was thinking of finding a solution.
"I can't calm down, Bang. I am in danger now." said the Princess who had shed tears.
"Abang will not let you be taken away with them. Take it easy, everything will be fine." said Barra trying to convince her frightened sister.
After the car in front drove, now the police car that was riding Barra and Putri also drove. The police officers who checked opened the car door near Barra and Putri.
"Can we check for a second?" ask the police officer who did the examination while telling Barra and Putri to come out.
