The Mafia's Asmara Cage

SASM - Creating a Plan

At the hospital, Samantha is greeted by Paul who is waiting for her in front of the treatment room. The man sat on his wheelchair worried about the condition of his master.

“You are from where miss? Are you okay?” Paul also worries about Samantha being seen running barefoot.

“I went to check something,” Samantha said in a hurry. His body was sweating with messy hair. He plucked her hair with the chopsticks he found on the hotel desk.

“How is Maximo? Has he improved?” His worries for Maximo grew again.

Paul nodded weakly. “Not miss, big sir has not improved. His body is still very weak. The doctor said, from the results of the examination, there is a neurological disorder that has not been known the cause. I'm afraid the big lord will experience paralysis.” Paul seemed hit with Maximo's condition that can only be stretched out on his bed.

“Relax Paul, Maximo will be cured soon. I'm sure, right now he's just poisoned.” Samantha said with great determination.

“Diven? What do you mean miss?” Paul immediately looked over with a shocked face.

“Sstt, lower your voice.” Samantha lowered her voice. He sat next to Paul at a very close distance.

“How can you suppose that the great master was poisoned, Miss?” Paul is curious. The words were slow, but full of emphasis.

Samantha showed me a plastic in which there was a glass and a slightly yellowish clear liquid. “Maximo once said that in the mafia world there is a drug with three variants, the name is trycyclo. The medicine is poison. The first type of drug can cause the body of the drinker to rot from the inside. The second type can cause nerve damage for the drinker. And the third type, can cause death. I'm afraid Maximo drank one of those poisons. This is the glass used by Maximo with the rest of the wyne in it. Immediately check, so that we know the results.” Samantha hands the plastic over to Paul.

"All right, miss." Paul immediately accepted it. He called a guard and gave him some orders. “Make sure no one knows about this.” That was the last sentence Paul ordered before the bodyguard went to meet one of Maximo's acquaintances.

The bodyguard complied. He immediately went to the place where Paul had commanded.

“According to you who did it, Miss?” Paul asked back. Currently only Samantha and herself could be relied upon to solve this problem.

“I'm not too sure. At the scene there were a lot of people. We have to check, if there are other visitors who experience the same thing as Maximo, then the perpetrator poisoned the entire drink. But if other visitors do not experience the same thing, then only Maximo drinks are poisoned.” Samantha just concluded a red thread she could pull.

“I will ask the bodyguard to investigate whether anyone is experiencing such a natural great lord or not.” Paul chimes with passion.

“Who, Miss?” Paul is getting closer to Samantha.

Samantha closed her eyes for a moment to convince herself. “William and his daughter,” said the girl with confidence.

“How could you have guessed the culprit was Mr William? He was not invited on the show.” Paul begins to doubt Samantha's description.

“That's right! William was not invited. But just so you know, that guy came after Maximo took out some fake Maximo guys. The man shows his disappointment because he was not invited and invites Maximo to drink. I remember exactly that he himself had no time to drink, nor did his daughter and I. Only Maximo was drinking and was almost finished. That's why I'm so sure that the culprit is that old man.” Samantha's words were very firm. His gaze was sharp as the memories of William and Maximo swirled in his head.

“Gosh, how is it possible? Mr. William is on good terms with Mr. Cortez.” Paul rubbed his face inexhaustibly.

“What is impossible? They look close but they are hostile. And Maximo's enemies were many besides,” Samantha suddenly fell silent. He is aware of his own words. True, Maximo's enemies were many one of them was Wilson. Yeah, Wilson and Alicia were in that place, but did they maybe do it? How-to?

“What's up, Miss?” Paul notices Samantha who is pensive all of a sudden. Samantha was stunned by surprise, imagining that what she was thinking was true. Is it possible that Alicia betrayed him? Or was Alicia assigned to poison Maximo?

Aakhh, Samantha's head was suddenly dizzy as more and more conjectures in her mind made her start to feel very nauseous. It was as if there was a huge crush pressing down on his head.

“Nona, are you okay?” Paul is also worried about what might happen to a beautiful woman whose face turns pale.

“Fine, make sure first fill the content of the drink then, we find the cure. But for a while, I think we should take care of Maximo at home? I'm afraid there are enemies who know Maximo's condition like this and use this opportunity to bring Maximo down. We don't know if there might be enemies roaming around us.” Samantha is paranoid. He did not trust anyone, including the doctors at the hospital.

“Maximo has a great personal doctor right?” Samantha wants to convince.

“There's Miss. I agree with you, we should take care of the big master at home.” Paul agreed to Samantha. For him this is safer for Maximo.

Sam, we're thinking too much today. I also have a headache.
