MY HUSBAND IS NOT A MURDERER
EPISODE 004

At Igor's workplace. He's still busy raging with antiques. Carve writing on top of jars and some other fancy flower pots.

He wore black gloves as well as a mask that covered him from a small speck of dust.

Weld the iron with a welding tool, and engrave it with hot iron, and print other writing with boiling lava.

Igor's work is very much in keeping with his cold attitude, but inversely proportional to the physicality he has.

With a height that reached 188 cm, and the burly muscles all over his body that protruded as he only used the t-shirt.

Physically, Igor is more deserving of being an executioner and an underground fighter, even being a cold-blooded hitman.

However, he chose to become an ordinary metalworker and woodcarver, for a fairly high fee than the wages of the average civil servant worker.

“Halo, good morning!” A customer came to Igor's place that morning. It turns out he was Roy.

“Good morning! You are free to look around first,” said Igor who is still busy welding and sawing something in his place.

After entering, Roy went around and looked through all the works and orders displayed at Igor's place.

“Excuse me, can you fix items made of silver? Someone recommended this place to me. By the way, is director Igor inside?”

Igor took off his gloves and mask, got out of his seat and walked over to Roy.

“Who recommends you?” ask Igor.

The two of them were just as shocked when they saw each other. Igor's study room was quiet and the two of them stared at each other.

“Arthur?” ask Roy. “Could you..”.

“Forcuse us, it looks like we closed early this morning.” Igor turned around and switched the conversation.

“Hei, Arthur! Isn't that you? Don't you remember me? I'm Roy, your old roommate.” Roy walked slowly towards Igor.

Arthur, that's Igor's real name. He accidentally changed his name after several years of disappearing and was adopted by his current parents.

He accidentally changed his name because he had a problem related to a serial killer that occurred ten years ago that has not been solved to date.

Arthur accidentally changes his name to Igor, and hides all of his true identity before he marries Eva.

Igor was very surprised at that moment. He had not expected to meet Roy, his old friend, after he disappeared and changed all his identities.

Igor let out a long sigh, turned around, and looked at Roy.

“Wah, that's right you, Arthur,” said Roy who also did not expect to meet.

Ten years ago, when Roy first became a journalist and reporter, he also raised the news of the unsolved case.

Roy still thinks that Arthur/Igor was the serial killer who committed the murder 10 years ago.

“Then? What are you gonna do? Do you want to report to me that I was related to a murder 10 years ago?” Igor looked at Roy.

“No. I'm just surprised. I also did not say I would do anything,” said Roy frightened. “I just came here to see Igor, the husband of Detective Eva. Does he not exist?”

Roy does not know that he is Igor who has changed his name from Arthur. He also did not think that the person in front of him was the husband of Eva.

“Ya, sure. We know each other. I always meet him when he works out of the office,” Roy replied.

Igor smiled small and, “You want coffee? I have a very good premium coffee. Sit first. I'll make you coffee.”

With a heavy heart, Roy had to sit at the table while waiting for Igor to make coffee for him.

Roy's legs shook and continued to feel anxious at Igor's guest table. He was still afraid that Igor would do something to him.

Only Roy and Igor's parents know Igor's true identity.

“Jeez, Arthur. You don't have to bother like this. I barely knew you.”

“Tak what. Finally, you also know me.”

‘Yes, you're right. That's because we once lived in the same neighborhood. You've changed a lot since then.”

Roy continues to feel uncomfortable and uneasy while in Igor's room. His eyes looked at every corner of the room. I hope the atmosphere will melt soon..

“Minum! The coffee was very good.” Igor lifted the cup and sipped the coffee.

“Gosh. It's a hot day, isn't it? I sweat a lot. Am I the only one who feels sultry?”

In Roy's head, there are still many questions about what really happened to Igor. His forehead was letting out a lot of sweat dripping down his cheeks and neck.

Roy looks for building porters who are working to lift heavy loads from place to place, just because they continue to feel anxious.

“Really? Looks like I'm fine, ” said Igor who can read Roy's mind.

“The temperature of your body can rise if you hold back the thing you want to say. Just say it, Roy! Ask all the questions that come from inside your mind, while you meet me.”

“Wah. There aren't. Are you a psychic? There was no such thing in my mind,” Roy replied blushingly. Roy sipped a little coffee that had been made, then immediately say goodbye.

“Good. Looks like I have to go. I've got an appointment this afternoon with someone,”

“Aren't you curious? I'm sure you'll be curious. You are a reporter and a reporter. Just ask me. I'll answer all your questions and curiosity.”

Roy remained silent for a moment, and paused his intention to leave. He is very unstable and planless.

On the one hand he feels fear, but he also wants to dispel his curiosity and get the news for the murder case 10 years ago, which is still unsolved to this day.

“You... I will not trust anyone or anything that is not confirmed with data and facts, and you know that. Your rumors that have been circulating all this time, are just a novel to me.”

“Really?” ask Igor.

“I don't know for sure, you know or not, but 15 years ago…. There was a murder when you disappeared from the city. A farmer, killed in his own paddy field back then.”

“Then?” ask Igor.

“Are you involved with that? Could you be an accomplice of a real killer?”

Igor straightened his body, leaned against the chair, answering Roy's question.

“What's in it for me, if I say, I have nothing to do with it? Everyone will still believe that I am a suspect for killing that farmer.”
