Sanggana 6 Agreements Muara Jerit
Examiner 28: Suspected Killer

*Evenue String Agreement (Traffic)*

“Does he want to kill me?” asked Prabu Galang angry that could not be answered by all Mahapatih Olo Kadita, Rempak Tujuh and the Commander of Banta Ufuk Palace.

Prabu Galang can already guess strongly who is the person behind the assassins of his two officials. The strong allegation is based on two pieces of evidence. First, the evidence of an abandoned sword stuck on the shoulder of Minister Balelewa. Second, the evidence of the escape of Minister Balelewa's killer.

Based on the evidence of the sword that was made by the Bow Forger in the area of the Gulf of Busung Kingdom, Mahapatih Olo Kadita had strongly suspected that the assassins had something to do with the Lesser Sanggana Kingdom.

However, based on the second clue, the allegations of Mahapatih Olo Kadita are disputed by Prabu Galang Digdaya himself.

Some time ago around the red pond, the Palace Army was confused because the two assassins they were chasing had all but disappeared like they had been swallowed by the wind.

The loss at the venue made Palace Commander Banta Ufuk suspect the vines that line the stone walls.

The commander of Banta Ufuk got off his horse and walked over to the stone wall. Commander Talang Karat followed his lord.

“In this stone wall there is a secret passageway, Talang Karat. You need to know now,” said Banta Ufuk as he brushed away the creeping plants that covered the stone walls. After disibak using the hands, then the stone wall, there is no road.

Gredeg!

However, when Banta Ufuk pushed the stone wall with considerable force, the stone wall moved open a dark stone gap. It seems like a secret path. Banta Ufuk continued to push the wider stone wall open a door.

The soldiers were searching the area, so watch what their commander did.

“This secret door has just opened. The killers must have disappeared because they passed through this secret passageway,” said Banta Ufuk who could see signs that the stone door had just been opened and closed again. There was a trace of friction on the bottom of the stone door.

Indeed, Commander Banta Ufuk knew that on the wall there was a secret door unknown to the soldiers, including the level of Commander Talang Karat. His name is also a secret door, so who knows only a few people, such as the Commander of the Palace and Prabu Galang Digdaya.

Commander Talang Karat was ordered to pursue with his troops through the secret passageway. But then, they lost the hunt. Commander Talang Karat only found new traces in some parts of the hallway that turned translucent to the sea.

The palace and the capital city of Digdaya were on the seafront, but they turned their backs to the sea. People who were in the Palace and in the Capital City had to go to the Noose of Jerit to be able to see the ocean. Between the Capital and the beach there is a small forest that leads to mangrove forests.

Because the killer through a secret path that was previously only known by a few people, Prabu Galang Digdaya could immediately guess who had orders to the killers.

“However, the security of the Palace and the Capital must be further enhanced until the situation is completely safe. Spread the Mountain Foot Troops in the Palace and Capital!” the Prabu Galang Digdaya.

“Good, Gusti,” said Mahapatih Olo Kadita and Commander of Banta Ufuk.

“Sorry, Gusti,” said Rempak Tujuh while making a salute. “If Gusti Prabu is sure who did it, is the family of the late Minister Aduh Mantang better released?”

“Just do a skit of questions and light torment. If we just set them free, they'll conclude that the Palace already knows who the killer is. They will charge the name of the culprit,” replied Prabu Galang Digdaya.

“Good, Gusti,” said Rempak Seven who actually disagreed in that way because he was a professional. However, in front of the king he still had to look obedient.

“Financial Ministers coming to!” shouted the guard soldiers outside.

Minister Kuangan Badaragi came in at a rapid pace. His face was so sharp that it showed tension.

“Sworship by the servant, Gusti Prabu,” Badaragi said while kneeling in honor.

“Wake up, Badaragi!” the Prabu Galang Digdaya.

“Gusti,” call Badaragi while he has not risen to his feet.

“Is there any news of another murder?” keka Prabu Galang first.

“Hamba was also targeted for murder, Gusti!” badaragi.

“You got an attack also inside the Palace? Aren't you okay?” keka Prabu Galang again.

“No, Gusti. However, Minister Aduh Mantang and Balelewa are two ministers who are close to Gusti Putri. That means I will also be targeted. I am also close to Gusti Putri, Gusti,” Badaragi replied.

The Mahapatih Olo Kadita, Rempak Tujuh and Banta Ufuk. For them, the basis of Badaragi makes sense.

“Aduh Mantang and Balelewa are indeed close to my daughter, but not necessarily because of the basis of closeness with my daughter they were targeted and killed,” Sangkal Prabu Galang Digdaya.

“That conclusion is because Gusti Putri also got an attack,” Badaragi said.

“What?!” pekik Prabu Galang Digdaya and his two officials. Then he curses in anger, “Child doesn't know himself!”

Spa!

The hand of the teak chair occupied by Prabu Galang Digdaya was broken by the strength of his grip because it held back anger.

“Mo-mo-please sorry, Gusti!” said Badaragi stuttered, the effect of shock due to the anger of the prabu. “Gusti Innocent Princess, Gusti. It is precisely Gusti Putri who wants to be killed.”

“I'm not mad at my daughter Ani, but I'm mad at my other son!” shouted Prabu Galang while standing annoyed. “Who gave you the news that Princess Ani was attacked?”

“Ronda Galo notified by Rincing Kila, Gusti. He also warned the servant to be careful because most likely the servant was also the target,” Badaragi replied.

“Come!” call Prabu Galang Digdaya.

“Hamba, Gusti Prabu,” said the woman dressed as a swordsman who is the left hand of Prabu Galang Digdaya, while making a speech of respect.

“Deliver my orders to Commander Ati Urat to take his troops away to find Gusti Putri and bring him home. I don't want anything to happen to my daughter!” the Prabu Galang Digdaya.

“Good, Gusti Prabu,” answered the left hand of the prabu named Kucari. That means his left hand, which I'm looking for, not the man.

Then go the woman with the warrior's appearance. He doesn't need a warrant or a driver's license to deliver the order. His position as the King's Left Hand has given legality to what he will convey.

“Meet, lower the command to the Four Death Anchors to escort the Minister of Finance until the conditions are completely safe!” the Prabu Galang Order.

“Good, Gusti Prabu,” said Mahapatih Olo Kadita.

“Send the Beautiful Chain Swordsman and the Mountain Foot Force as a messenger to call home Prince Tirta Gambang. I'm afraid he won't come home!” prabu Galang Digdaya's orders again.

“Good, Gusti Prabu,” said Mahapatih Olo Kadita again.

“Meet, Throw Seven, Banta Ufuk, you can go!” the Prabu Galang Digdaya.

“Good, Gusti,” said the three officials called.

The two then saluted and left the big room. Stay Prabu Galang Digdaya, Badaragi and the right hand of the prabu.

“Badaragi, do you see Princess Ani has ambitions to the throne?” ask Prabu Galang.

“Please excuse me, Gusti. So far the attention of Gusti Putri much poured into the cultivation of fish. He hardly ever touched on the throne. Only occasionally does he reveal that he is still grudging Gusti Prabu for the death of Agi Lodya. Gusti Prabu certainly knew that Gusti Putri did not like being escorted by troops. He wants to be free. According to the servant, it shows that Gusti Putri is not interested in the throne, especially Gusti Prabu is still very powerful,” replied Badaragi quite long.

“He is my successor. At first I had hope for Tirta because he had the ambition to be the strongest. But not yet anything, he had already killed two ministers, even wanting to kill Princess Ani. What would happen if the Queen knew about this. But I was worried too, if Princess Ani is ambitious to the throne, my head that she will be beheaded,” said Prabu Galang Digdaya confided. (BH)
