The Winter Promise

Chapter 56: Trying Something New.

Today is the twenty-eighth day of Ramadan, and if tomorrow night has been seen hilal or a new moon in the sky, it means that the next day we have performed the Eid prayer.

I am currently with Maul and Riki are heading to the mosque near his home Ustadz Adi to carry out a lightning boarding school. I have previously attended a lightning boarding school held by my school. Usually if at school, the lightning pesantren is only held from the beginning of school to the azan maghrib only and ends with breaking together. But if the pesantren lightning this time, we will live it a full day.

We also departed from the house at ten because the event began after the prayer. A few hours earlier, Riki and I had gone to Maul's house to see something Maul had made. If you remember, Maul once said that she wanted to show me something about the app she created to make it easier to hack.

“You all see this.”

Maul also showed her phone with an application that opened there.

“What is it?”

Ask Riki who was not previously told by Maul.

“This is an application that can make it easier for me to hack something, I included some features in it that make me able to hack anything easily.”

“Anything?!”

Riki and I were shocked when they heard that. I think it would be great if he could hack anything with that app. Maul who does hacking manually alone is very great, what if he is made easy with the application he made. It seems that from this moment on I can't make Maul angry

iota.

“This application can hack networks, hack people's phones, can find out all the accounts that are on a phone, track the location of his phone, intercept conversations through the mic on his phone, tap the camera, tap, and many more.”

Maul explained to us the advantages of the application with great pride.

“That's great you Mul, how long did you make that app?”

Riki was amazed by what Maul had just done.

“I made this application actually has been since second grade SMP, but it is only finished now. That's just a lot of bugs in it.”

“What is this application no extras?”

Ask him. Because I think that as good as any application that he made, there must be weaknesses contained in it.

“The lack of this application can only be used if we are new to the same network. This app cannot hack anything that is outside of its network. As you know, because in this application can not be included such an algorithm. Provided he has an AI that can operate this application automatically, maybe another story.”

There are so many things Maul said that I don't understand. I also looked towards Riki who he was still trying to digest the words from Maul.

“AI? What is it?”

Riki asked confusedly to Maul.

“AI or Artificial Intelligence, we usually call it artificial intelligence. Have you ever seen the movie Iron Man?”

“Of course, I watched all those movie series.”

Said Riki who seemed to begin to understand with the talk of Maul.

“If you have ever watched the movie Iron Man, surely you know the computer system that operates the armor of Tomi Supra named Jefri. That's an example of artificial intelligence. About such a short explanation.”

“Now I get it... If you can make it, it'll be really cool. You could have created armor like the one in that movie.”

Riki was more excited when he understood what was meant by Maul.

“So when does the app want you to try?”

I asked Maul.

“Maybe I will try it when in TransJakarta, because many passengers in TransJakarta who use the free internet provided there.he can all try the features in the application, it is, whether it works or not.”

“But remember, don't use the app wrong if it works.”

I warned Maul, because Maul could have used the app for a crime. Well even on one hand I know that Maul can't be as brave as it is to commit a crime.

“Of course, where might I do for it. If I wanted to do it for such a thing, I couldn't possibly tell you this.”

Smart kid.

***

“How?”

“In the meantime, this app is processing the phone of anyone connected on this connection.”

We are currently in TransJakarta heading to Jakarta City and Maul is trying out the application he made. We couldn't try it on the bus we were on before because of the huge number of visitors there. And according to Maul, a true hacker is a hacker who does everything without being known by anyone. So he paused his intention to try the app on the bus before.

“I've tried some of the features that are here and there are some that work, some that do not work. Looks like I need to fix it when I get home later.”

Maul is still focused on her phone.

I looked all over the bus and saw almost the average person there was playing with his cell phone. I also occasionally look out the window and see the quiet streets with vehicles. Because soon already want eid ulbaran eidulfitri, so there are many people who go to their respective villages. Jakarta which is famous for its traffic jam can only be overcome during the Eid al-Fitr holiday.

“Oi Mar, what events will there be in the pesantren lightning later?”

Riki asked me who was focusing on noticing the quiet road.

“Events begin after the Zuhur prayer, and at that time we will follow the study until the asar azan. Then after performing the prayer asar we will tadarus until four in the afternoon, then we will get free time until one in the evening.”

I also read the arrangement of the event that Ustadz Adi had sent to me.

“One time rest.”

“Because tonight is an odd night, so the event at midnight will be a lot, and we are given sleep time from ten pm to half hour one only.”

“It's rare that I sleep at ten.”

“I'm also the same Mul, because those times are the best times to play the game. Because a lot of great players played back then.”

We finally arrived at the mosque. The mosque was not too far from the school, even we could see the Great Sawah SMK clearly from the front of this mosque. The current mosque is named Nurul Huda Mosque, the mosque is very large and has two floors. The field in front of him is also very wide, it seems that in the afternoon a lot of children play here.

We also met with Rian who was waiting for us at the door of the mosque.

“All of you, hurry here.”

Rian waved his hand at us.

“Anytime you come here Yan.”

Saying to him.

“Of course, because my house is closer to here compared to yours. So you took Maul and Riki to Mar.”

“That's.”

“Then let me take you to the place to put the bag.”

Rian took us to a side of the mosque where there were many bags. Looks like the bags belong to the participants who attended this lightning boarding event.

“Ustadz Adi where is Yan?”

“Ustadz Adi is giving directions to other participants.”

“So the show has started?”

Riki who had just put down her bag immediately joined our conversation.

“Quietly, Ustadz Adi only gives directions. The show starts after the prayer zuhur later.”

“Thank God we're not late.”

Riki was relieved to hear that.

“Then, let's join the others.”

We immediately joined the other participants to listen to the direction of Ustadz Adi. I saw that the attendees who attended the event were quite a lot, there might be around twenty people. After listening to the instructions from Ustadz Adi, we were given free time to prepare for the prayer.

“How was the trip Mar?”

Ustadz Adi came straight to me who was in the place of wudu.

“Lancar Ustadz, quiet streets.”

“Lajar only that, his name is also ready to approach the holiday.”

“Oh yes Ustadz, these are my friends that I invited to this event.”

I introduced Riki and Maul who had just finished berwudu.

“My name is Maulana Ustadz, commonly called Maul.”

“My name is Riki.”

Riki and Maul introduced themselves to Ustadz Adi.

“My name is Adi, I am the mentor of the rohis in SMK Sawah Besar. You two where is the house?”

“Our house is close to the house of Amar Ustadz.”

“Hmm so.”

Ustadz Adi saw the watch he was wearing.

“Who among you would like to proclaim azan?”

“I leave that to Rian.”

I directly pointed at Rian who had just finished berwudu.

“I don't mind if you don't mind too.”

“Let's just relax, none of us object to that.”

“Alright then.”

Rian went straight to the mosque to announce the Adhan.

Of course I don't want to accept that, because I lack confidence in the voice I have. So too I'm sure Maul and Riki have the same problem as me. I used to say the adhan in the mosque near my house, because I was too excited, when in the middle of my breathing was exhausted and at that time I was immediately embarrassed because there were some friends who saw me at that time. Although in the end Mr. Ustadz did not make a problem about it, but still I was laughed at by my friends.

“Oh yes Ustadz, anyone who attended the lightning pesantren event this time?”

“The lightning table this time was followed by rohis from various schools that I built his rohis and there were also some from teenagers of the mosque here.”

“Which schools Ustadz mentors do?”

Riki asked the matter.

“For SMA equals, I only guide SMK Sawah Besar only, the rest I mostly guide SMP level only.”

“Means we are the oldest here yes.”

“No.. No. gabe... There are some teenagers of the mosque here who are the same age as you.”

“Hmmm so so.”

“Ustadz, isn't this event reserved for men only?”

“What's Why Mar?”

“Soal earlier I saw there are some women in this mosque.”

“Oh so.”

Ustadz Adi also immediately saw me like when Riki saw me when I had left together with a woman.

“Maybe the woman you just saw was a mosque teenager here, they did come here often to take care of some business in the Mosque. Especially now that they want a holiday, they are busy to take care of people who want to pay zakat fitrah.”

Teen masjid kah... I also joined my home mosque teenager. Because I used to teach there when I was a child, so I automatically joined there. I used to say that a mosque teenager is an OSIS but a new version of it.

“Did any woman catch your attention Mar?”

Why Ustadz Adi should also be like this... Why why.

“Free Ustadz asked that to Amar.”

Riki said with a small smile.

“Loh why?”

Ustadz Adi who previously did not know how my attitude looks very confused.

“If at this time a lot of women who like Amar, but Amar reject them all.”

“Why did you say that Rik?”

“It turns out you are famous too yes Mar.”

Ustadz Adi smiled, but from his smile I knew that he was actually mocking me.

“The courtship is forbidden in Islam, so I don't want to date.”

“Alah, you can say that because there is currently Ustadz Adi only. If there's nothing she says she doesn't want to spend her money on something like dating.”

They all laughed at Maul's words.

And Azan reverberated, and we listened to him carefully. After the prayer, we immediately gathered in a room made like a class to follow the study together.

The theme of the study presented by Ustadz Adi is about faith, the purpose of man created in the world is solely to worship God, all the things that we do in the world will be accounted for in the hereafter, humans have laws to determine which is good and true, namely the law of Shara in which there is obligatory, circumcision, mubah, and so on, makruh, and haram. By following the law of Shara, man can determine between good and bad according to the creator, because menusia can not determine for themselves which is good and which is bad. Then after that Ustadz Adi explained about how humans can be awake by using his thoughts.

“Finally done too!”

Right now, me, Maul, and Riki were lying on one side of the mosque. We plan to rest our brains after listening to a very complex study.

“Newly this time I listened to such a study.”

Riki closed his eyes and intended to sleep for a while.

“I also did not expect that this study would make my head dizzy. Usually I get sleepy when listening to the study, but this time because the discussion is quite interesting I listen to it with great focus. But the more focused I listen to it the more dizzy my mind is made.”

Maul covered her face with the peci she used.

When we were falling, Rian came to us.

At that time, I saw absolutely no sign of him being as exhausted as we were after hearing the study from Ustadz Adi. Even though during the study, he was the most serious to pay attention and often asked questions. Is it possible that he often listens to studies like this? Very good of him.

“You all want to come with me to find food to break the fast no?”

“Not should the food be provided?”

I woke up and dressed my clothes.

“Indeed the food was provided, but it was for dinner. If to break the fast has not been prepared at all with Ustadz Adi. He said there are usually residents who give food to break the fast, but because many residents have returned home, so no one gives.”

“I think buying food is not bad, all looking for fresh air.”

Riki instantly woke up from his sleep and he looked very fresh.

“I agree with you, afternoon walks sambl ngabuburit not bad either.”

And so is Maul.

Finally we went to get some food to break the fast. After a long search for food vendors there, we arrived at a seller who sells a variety of fried foods and also barren.

Riki and Rian immediately went to the seller to order food to break the fast. I looked behind me that Maul was playing her phone, curious that I went to get to her.

“What are you doing?”

“I'm checking the news of the abduction that is currently rife.”

“Do you still intend to solve the case Mul? Didn't I tell you it was dangerous.”

“Let's calm Mar, I'm just checking the case. I don't intend to finish it alone, let alone without your help. It was the same as suicide.”

I thought you'd be reckless and try to solve the case alone.

“But I feel that we will be involved with it?”

“What do you mean?”

“I've already found out about this case and most of the kidnapped kora are women with an age of about 13-18 years which is the age for people who are still sitting in Junior High School and High School.”

After being told by Maul about it, somehow my hunch also said so.

“And again the case is rife in the area of Central Jakarta and West Jakarta where our school is in that zone.”

“Then why has there been no notification from the police about this. I have not heard a single news that discusses this on television.”

“I don't know about it, but I think it's just a matter of time until the case is reported on television. Maybe one or two more cases until the news goes up.”

“Hopefully I don't have to do such a troublesome thing.”

“I'm also the same.”

Because this is a very troublesome thing. Dealing with Takeshi and OSIS is just a grain of dust on the road compared to this, because I don't know who to fight.

“Oi Mar... Mul... The fry is already so, let's go back to the mosque.”

Riki called out to us who were still talking far behind them.

And we went back to the mosque to get ready to wait for the break. But during the trip I was always thought of by the case told by Maul. Because if this case is indeed rife and dangerous, then most likely I will be involved in this. But hopefully that's just my hunch.
