The River House

The River House
XLVS. What kind of person is Bayu Khairil?



Highlight the flashlight shimmered in the darkness of the forest. Two people stepped slowly between the shrub and the shrub. The person walking in front looked relaxed, as if he had been very familiar with the region. That man is Bayu. While the one who followed him behind was Damar.


"Sir Bayu, where are we going?" asked Damar breaking the silence.


Bayu just smiled, did not answer Damar's question. Some time before, when the cry of Mak Surti was heard, everyone ran to the kitchen. They found Mak Surti lying on the kitchen floor limp and crying.


"Miko was taken by an orangg, Miko was kidnapped, please," Mak Surti rummaged as he sobbed at that time.


Bayu immediately made up his mind, ordering people to bring the shocked and faint Mak Surti to his room. While he and Damar immediately look for Miko combing the forest. Mr. Nyoto had been determined to take part in the forest to find Miko, but Bayu forbade it. The condition of Mr. Nyoto looks just as glassy as Mak Surti. In the search for abductees, it is necessary to be careful, and vigilant. Emotions and hurrying will only mess up the clues.


"You know Damar, this forest is where I play with my old friend. So I memorized every inch of land that was here," said Bayu arrived.


"I may know where little Miko was taken by her captors, but before that we had to visit a place" Bayu continued. Damar was silent because he did not understand the topic of Bayu chat.


"We arrived," Bayu smiled sumringah.


They reached the forest about 300 meters behind the new house Anggun. Sprawling field with grass and leafy gajahan. Damar circulated a glance, looking up at the sky. He was confused at the direction of the current wind. The darkness of the forest is truly terrible, it feels misleading.


"What are we doing here, Mr Bayu?" asked Damar curiously, looking strangely at Bayu who looks folded his shirt arms.


"Come here, it's around here," Bayu asked Damar to come closer, and pointed his flashlight to the ground. Damar simply complied, still with a myriad of questions on his mind.


There was a shiny stone lying on the ground. A type of latitude stone that is usually found in many river streams. Bayu crouched down, patting the ground around the stone.


Bug bug bug bug


There was a part of the ground that made a strange sound. It was like a hollow ground in that part. Bayu smiled briefly. Damar's getting curious.


By using his bare hands Bayu scavenged the ground. It did not take long, a circular object made of rusty iron poked out from the ground. Bayu immediately pulled it.


It turns out that the circular iron is a handle of a wooden box cover with a large enough size. After the cover is lifted, a square box is embedded in the ground.


Damar pointed his flashlight into the wooden box. A large plastic sheet was seen wrapping around a pile of objects. Bayu with his eyes glistening under the flashlight, opened the plastic package. Damar was surprised by the behavior of his role model police. Never before had Damar seen Bayu show such an expression.


"He he he, I just showed you this Damar," Bayu chuckled.


A few piles of maroon-coated books were inside the plastic parcel. Initially Damar suspected Bayu to keep the treasure there, but it turned out to be just a pile of books. Damar is confused.


"I thought there would be treasure, just a pile of books?" Damar scrunched his forehead.


"Huh? Ha ha ha ha, you don't understand Damar. This book is much more valuable than gold. This book is a source of inspiration for empty soul souls like me and like you, "Bayu chuckled. His laughter broke out among the silence of the wilderness.


Damar. Although he did not understand what Bayu meant, but it was true that his soul was feeling empty.


"This book will fill the emptiness of your soul, as well as the people out there who need help. There was a sense of relief after reading it. This book tells what the author has experienced. Suffering and pain of body and soul. People who are empty like us, can only be understood by people who experience similar things," Bayu took one book in the pile.


"You're the same as me Damar," Bayu smiled grinning.


Damar accepted the book hesitantly and kept it behind his shirt. Bayu chuckled for a moment then closed the wooden box again and buried it as before.


"Now, we pick up Miko," said Bayu fixing the buttons on his shirt arm. Damar could only nod and obey.


Back, two sturdy people stepped to brush the bush in the forest with a small flashlight and cell phone flash light. The sky looked dark, the night came with clumps of black clouds. It might be raining soon. Rain that comes in the dry season.


Not too long running, they had already come out of the thick wilderness. Right on the edge of the river under the swift waterfall. Damar still does not understand why Bayu took him to the waterfall?


Not yet Damar opened his mouth to ask, Bayu took off his shoes and jumped agilely from one stone to another. There was no time to hesitate and bewildered, and Damar followed his senior steps. Even when Bayu jumped into the waterfall, Damar followed him.


It's beyond a doubt. It turns out that behind the waterfall there is a kind of niche that is quite wide. Damar thought the place was empty, but there was a human figure lying in the corner of the cave.


The figure of the woman lies unconscious. With red liquid wetting his head. I heard heavy and heavy breathing. Bayu and Damar approached to check.


"Maybe it's one of the missing guests. Andewi his name," Bayu took out his note.


"What should we do now, sir?" ask Damar while checking the condition of the Andevi.


"He's critical" continued Damar.


Bayu remained silent, circulating his gaze around the corner of the cave. He did not find the thing he was looking for.


"Hmmm, maybe that's why this woman was attacked," Bayu mangosteen mangosteen.


"attacked? By whom sir? What does Mr Bayu mean? I really don't understand," Damar who is usually calm, now feels a lot of asking. Curiosity rules his heart. Too many secrets are hidden by the Bayu police. What kind of person is this Bayu Khairil? Damar really wants to know.


"Ha ha ha. You asked Damar a lot, "Bayu laughed, echoing in the cave.


"Now your duty is to sit here, waiting for the woman. If there's anything you can do to give first aid, do it!" command Bayu.


"Where is my father going?" Damar kept asking.


"See the state of the house. As well as completing the past work," Bayu checked the weapon in his pants pocket, then moved out of the cave. Damar could only obey, sitting quietly inside the cave.
