The Guards
Chapter 7



That night the members of the Paspampres were breafing for some of the latest information.


“Ndak.


maybe?” Rendy asked as she continued fiddling with her laptop.


Before brifing Shinta asked Rendy for help to track Arinda's background, as only she had access to the BIN (State Intelligence Agency) database.


“Masa anyway? Really his name is Arinda, in absence also his name is like that.” Shinta answered sure.


“Unless he is indeed from the most secretive and more secretive Institution.” Rendy


“You mean Outside BIN? Isn't our intelligence agency just BIN?”


“I'm also not too sure, there is a rumor that says that intelligence class CIA and KGB has long been watching our country. It is likely that he also has something to do with both big organizations” replied Rendy while justifying his seat, as a few moments later the briefing immediately began.


“Should I report this?” Shinta Brisks.


“No need..You should investigate yourself” Reply Rendy.


Shinta nodded in agreement.


“But you have to be careful, we don't know what his purpose is and which side.” Added Rendy.


“OK Ready” Sahut Shinta.


That night there seemed to be an important thing to be conveyed by Colonel Ivan Rusdian, Commander Paspampres. And also this brifing was attended by all level 1 units such as Bagas as the unit leader, Shinta, Rendy, Robin, Bima, Dimas, and also Sandra.


Among those most senior is Sandra (30 years old), who was previously in the level 3 unit. At the president's request, Sandra accompanied Shinta, but without Arman's knowledge.


“I'm sorry I'm a little late, I will explain the situation briefly. Last week some military prisoners escaped from prison, and I think you know them very well” Colonel Ivan said and displayed a photo through his slide.


“No May” Mumbled Bagas in disbelief. The whole room seemed to be in shock like seeing a ghost as the photo was shown, except for Shinta.


“Our country is really in danger, after the incident a year ago, Zafran and his four members are the number one rebels in this country.


The evidence shows that what helped them are the remains of Zafran members who are still at large.” Colonel Ivan paused for a moment.


“Who are they?” Shinta whispers to Rendy.


“The former Kopassus members who staged a rebellion a year ago, and also who kidnapped the president's son” replied Rendy. Shinta was a bit stunned to hear that, now Shinta only understood why at that time the president's son could be kidnapped so easily. Their opponents are quite heavy, namely former members of Kopassus.


“And the bigger problem is they turned out to have quite sophisticated weaponry. We don't know exactly how they got it.


There's a chance they're infiltrating it through the air. But for sure, they will try to do a coup again, and certainly with a neater plan and more sophisticated weaponry.


I declare all parcel guardianship in full alert status. We will connect directly with BIN so it is easier to monitor the situation. Any questions?” Said Colonel Ivan.


Bagas raised his hand.


“How advanced is their equipment Colonel?” Ask Bagas.


“Such Sophisticated. A few weeks ago Densus 88 managed to raid a house suspected of being the headquarters of terrorists, and it turned out that it was an arsenal of their own, there were found several crates containing MP5 and M16 variants of the latest, which are, the latest generation of C4 explosives, RPGs and Javelin missiles.


During the liberation of Zafran they attacked using RPG, apache helicopter and the latest assault equipment. BIN believes that these two events were orchestrated by the same perpetrator.


Because all the equipment is the latest output belongs to America” replied Colonel Ivan.


The Colonel paused for a moment to wait for Bagas' opinion. But it seems Bagas was quite satisfied with that explanation.


“For that level 1 unit escorts the son of the president, in addition to Shinta some other members will also be parachuted into the field. Sandra will have access to the campus, and Robin will be accompanied by Bima and Dimas.” Added Colonel.


“Arman will definitely complain all-out” Shinta murmured.


Since that night, there has been a slight change in the formation of the guard of Paspampres. The initial field agent was just one plus to 3-4 agents. Colonel Ivan also put certain people who got access to the school and the campus, they disguised themselves and watched from afar.

“What is your job to keep Arman?” Rendy asked on the way to take Shinta home.


“Means?” Ask Shinta.


Rendy let out a long sigh, even though Shinta is an agent but still she is a 21-year-old girl, it still has to be explained in more detail.


“Yaaaa..What is your relationship? You are the same age of the tetep diem-dieman aja.ya if the same Robin is reasonable because it is adrift age.” Rendy explained.


“Ohhh.” Said Shinta. Then he fell silent, he was confused as to what to answer. More precisely he was confused to tell the truth or not.


“Heyyy..kok daydreaming anyway?”


Shinta woke up from her daydream, not feeling she had been silent for a few minutes.


“Hemmmm...I'm already familiar with him, same friends also.” Answer Shinta. Rendy kept glancing towards Shinta. She senses something strange with her, Shinta becomes unfocused when asked about Arman.


“Shin..” Call Rendy.


“Heh? Yes what is it?”


“Yah daydream again, already nyampek this” said Rendy. Shinta turned her head and it turned out that they had already arrived in front of the gate. Shinta rushed down from the car.


“Still Yes Rendy”


“Hey Shin, stay alert and don't daydream too often Rendy said with a smile.


Shinta smiled shyly at the insinuation, and then went inside the house
