Gavlin went into the cafe, he went to the counter, ordered food and drinks, and paid for it.

As Gavlin turned to look for a seat, her eyes looked at Maya who was sitting at her desk chair.

Seeing that Maya was there, Gavlin smiled, he immediately walked up to Maya.

"Hi, meet us again." Gavlin greeted with a friendly smile at Maya who was shocked to see Gavlin already standing next to her.

"What the hell, just calm down. My friend won't be bothered with you." Maya told Gavlin.

"OK it that way." Gavlin smiled.

Hearing Maya's words made Linda very relieved.

"Lega I'm with May, thank you." Linda smiled at Maya, who also smiled at her.

"Oh yeah, I haven't ordered any food, what do you want to eat May ?" Ask Linda.

"What a hell, it's up to you." Maya said with a smile.

But because she saw Linda loved and liked Gavlin so much, she tried to cover up and discard her feelings for Gavlin.

   Inside a dark room, seen on a large whiteboard on the wall, there are many photos.

The photo contains a picture of the floor plan of the location of Rawas village.

There is also a photo of three dead people hanging on a tree, a photo of the people of Rawas village.

The face in the photo was circled and crossed with red ink.

Then there is a photo of three people who died, besides the photo there is a photo of four people who are also dead.

Then there's a picture of Ningsih, this 50-year-old woman who just died.

All photos of the dead were circled and cross-marked, indicating that they were dead.

The eyes of the figure who stood staring at the photo led to a photo, a photo of the face of Thunder, an old man who died when he was inaugurated the Bramantio hotel.

Then beside him, there was a photo of Bramantio, Bramantio's old personal driver, named Sumantri.

On top of the photo was given a question mark, then the eyes of the mysterious figure looked at the photo of Wijaya, Linda's father who was also displayed.

He gave a question mark with the black marker he was holding.

In addition, there are also photos of Mike and Linda on the big whiteboard.

Then he gave a line connecting the photo Bramantio, Guntur dead and Wijaya on the photo of his parents, Sanusi.

Sanusi committed suicide in a prison cell for being slandered as a murderer and a rapist.

He wrote a line between the photos "Who slandered you as a murderer and a rapist?" As soon as he wrote the question.

From the look of his eyes was seen to be holding back such great anger and resentment overflowing.

The mysterious figure recalls the moment his father killed himself.

From a flash of his memory, the mysterious man remembers his Father hanging himself in a narrow cell, dying by suicide.

Moments after the memories disappeared from memory, he squeezed the marker inside his hand.

It appeared that his mouth was grinning sharply withstanding his growl and anger.

He then gripped a strong marker in his hand, then unconsciously, the marker was broken in two.

He vented his anger by breaking a marker in his hand.

Then he threw the broken marker in two to Bramantio's photo displayed on a large whiteboard wall of the house. His anger was overflowing at that moment.

"I will definitely kill you! Wait, you're next !" Said the figure of the mysterious person with a voice restraining his growl.

His eyes were glaring sharply, his eyes were red withstanding the anger that was mounting within him.

His mouth grinned, the sound of teeth grinding loudly from his mouth, he gritted his teeth furiously.
