SAWMILL
166. WHO WAS BURIED BY PAK PANAT?


Mr. Kamid sat down completely motionless, his mouth moving about like he was reading a prayer or something.


I became more and more astonished.why Mr. Kamid even like this, why he was silent and did not answer my words.


“Assalamualaikum pak Kamiiiiiid, this is Tina and mas Agus pak”


“Waalaikumsalam.. Your world is not here, do not disturb us who are working to secure kampung”


“Come back to your world and go in peace, don't scare the people here Tina”


Mr. Kamid spoke with a flat tone and a quiet voice, indicating he was frightened when he said that.


Is it possible that I and Mas Agus now are not from the era when I and mas Agus went to the sawmill house, after from the house of Mr. Panat?


“Sorry Mr. Kamidi, what is this father saying, how does it feel so strange. How can this father expel Tina and mas Agus..?”


“Pak, I'm Tina. Tina's house there is that sir, we are not demons!”


“We are not dead yet and we came here to ask about the house of Mr. Pantat!”


Mr. Kamidi's face lit by a small wattage lamp was gawking and he tried to see my body and the body of Mas Agus.


Slowly he stood up from his seat, then slowly Kamid sir noticed me and mas AGus.


He looked down, he saw both of our feet. I'm sure Mr. Kamid is looking at my feet and the legs of Mas Agus, whether our feet touch the ground or not!.


“Just look at our bodies sir, look at Tina's legs and Agus's mas feet.whether our feet are both treading on the ground or not!”


“K...you guys are Tina who lives in the next alley, and mas Agus who lives in the sawmill house?” ask Mr. Kamidi


“Yes yes sir..masak you can not see us both anyway sir, what is it, how until the father's friend ran away scared?”


“If this is true you two... Where have you been for almost a year? And whose body was buried in the twin graves?”


“Sik for a moment sir.. I do not understand at all, try to tell me what really happened sir... because we did not go where, this morning we were at the house of Pakat..”.


“Then we went to the sawmill house to see something, then the night we returned here again pak” I was confused by what this Mr. Kamid said


“Lho how the hell you two are, Mr. Padang has been gone several months from that house, he just left without saying goodbye to anyone” said Mr. Kamid


“And you two are dead .. It's been almost about five months you two were buried in twin graves”


“Pak Pangat with me and the people here found your bodies on the riverbank under the bridge, stuck to the rocks, but your faces were destroyed”


“Almost a year ago you disappeared after leaving the house of Mr. Panat, then Mr. Panat and the residents here did a search, but did not meet.”.


“Newly about five months ago after Pak Panat performing the ritual, your bodies were found under an iron bridge on the edge of the river with a face that is no longer in the form of”


“Sik for a moment sir, may I speak sir?” mas Agus said that interrupted the talk of Pak Kamidi


“Sini, you guys just get in the post, we talk quietly first, and it's coffee in kettles and glasses, you guys just drink coffee first”


Inggrid and the two ghosts were still next to me, Inggrid did not try to speak a word about this strange incident.


Do I and Mas Agus experience time travel to the future?


Mr. Kamid had started to control himself, then he told us to go into the kamling post, and offered us a cup of coffee.


Agus and I went into a guard post that was not too big, maybe the post was three meters by three meters, maybe enough for four people in this post.


“I'm sure that you guys are really Tina and Mas Agus, I also don't know where you guys have been for almost a year this” said Pak Kamid


“After Mr. Kamid.. I am so confused sir, let me talk first pak” said mas Agus.


“Please mas Agus”


“So I and mbak Tina have almost a year disappeared just like that, sir?”


“Betul…. You disappeared after leaving the house Mr. Panat” replied Mr. Kamid


“Then pak Panat did a search for us?”


“Iya mas.. assisted by me and some residents here, we did a search in the forest and around the sawmill house, but absolutely no trace of you two” replied Mr. Kamid


“Then did that search... did not find any clue at all?” ask me about Agus


“No mas...so gini mas, listen to my story first.”


“Your search is also assisted by the police from the city of S.. The police commander deployed some of his men to look for you both”


“After a few days of searching, there was no trace of you two at all, but Mr. Pangat sure that you do not go far”


“After a week of searching, around the forest and the village behind the forest, Pakat found two motorcycles..”.


“One is in the thicket across the river from the sawmill house, the other is behind the banyan tree, and the two motors belong to Mr. Pantat.”


“Motor that is behind the banyan tree is a motor that you borrow when you go from the house Pakat”...


“While the one in the bush is a motor borrowed by a person who said Pakat is a patient who is being treated”


“From the position of the two motors found, in particular the motor you borrowed and the one found behind the banyan tree disguised by tree tendrils, pak Panat and the police concluded that this motorbike was hidden”


“From the position of the motor that you hide it, the conclusion is taken that you are in danger, and at that time you could have been hiding around the forest”


“Police side at that time wanted to take and secure the motor, but it was forbidden pak Panat. Mr. Pantat said, just leave there the motor, without any clear reason from Mr. Panat”


Mr. Kamid stopped telling stories because he had to get out of the post for a while to look around the area he was guarding.


Only a moment later did he get into the post again.


“But in contrast to Pakat, he is still trying to find you two, because he feels you are still around here”


“Up to a few months later Pakat found two bodies under the iron bridge.


“But Pakat is sure that the body is the body of both of you, even though the residents here are not sure of the two bodies”


“Then to convince the residents here, Mr. Panat called a doctor who came from the city hospital”


“The doctor may be the same age as the warm sir, just old is the doctor it”


“The two bodies under the bridge were then taken by ambulance to the hospital, I do not know what was done in the hospital with the two bodies”


“Urusan with the family of mas Agus and mbak Tina pak Panat himself who will do it.. That said Mr. Padang when asked by the village chief about the issue of notification to the family before the two bodies were buried”


“So the two bodies had two days and two nights in the hospital morgue, to wait for information from Pakat about the family of Mas Agus and the family of Tina”


“I do not know what Pakat did, but it was clear on the third day Pak Panat came to the village head, and informed that the family of mas Agus and mbak Tina agreed to bury these two bodies in the public cemetery of the village”


“But strangely, none of the families of the two of you came, other than the two power of attorney that Pakat brought to bury two of your bodies”


“That must be tomorrow the body is already in a state of limping, and immediately buried into the twin graves that are there it”


“Eh sorry sir.. I want to cut the story first.. I want to ask about the doctor who is with Mr. Panat, is his name doctor Joko?” ask me about Agus


“Eh... true name is doctor Joko, I heard Mr. Panat call the doctor by the name of Jok.. or Joko” replied Mr. Kamid


“Ya already sir..continue the story pak” said mas Agus.


“So after the two bodies were buried, then the mystery of the disappearance of the two of you is done”


“But about a week after the burial, Mr. Panat left the house, no one knows when Pakat perginya”


“Our estimate is about a week after burying two of your bodies, then Mr. Panat left, his house is empty.. Until today pak Panat house remains empty”


“Nobody knows he's with his wife going where”


“At first the residents thought maybe Mr. Panat and his wife got the job of a healing call in a city, so they had to leave with suddenly”


“But after a few months Pakat did not come back here….The mystery of the disappearance of Mr. Panat has been forgotten by residents here, until you suddenly come here”


There is something strange with the story of Mr. Kamid..why suddenly there is a doctor Joko?


Isn't it that doctor Joko was most likely with Paijo who was fleeing the pursuit of Mr Burhan and his men?


And why did Pak Panat suddenly find two bodies in the bottom of the river, and then taken to the hospital where Joko's doctor worked?


And. how can Pakat get two bodies with damaged faces that are recognized two bodies are my corpse and the corpse of Agus.


Then after burying the fake body, Pak Panat just disappeared from this village.


“Now you explain to me, where have you been, and what is the reason for you leaving without saying goodbye to Mr. Panat, to trouble these villagers and the police sir as well?” ask Mr. Kamid


“Alright sir... we did go after hiding the motor, because at that time there were bad people trying to chase us both pak”


“We went down the side of the river to get the safest hiding place, and all this time I and Mbak Tina hid around the riverbank away from the sawmill house.. Anyway, to the East is pak”


“I'm sure no one is looking for us on the riverbank to the east right, we are there until we feel the situation to be safe”


Mas Agus made up a story that does not make sense, and hopefully Mr. Kamid can believe the story written by the mas Agus.


“If until Pakat found two bodies under the iron bridge. I am sure it is not the bodies of both of us pak”.


“We both showed up tonight because we feel the situation is safe & it is time for us to show up and look for Mr. Pantat to ask for the next clue” said mas Agus


“Who is looking for you so you two have to hide this long?” Ask Mr. Kamid


“I don't know and don't know sir, which is certain I will go to the police station first to report this pak”


“Hmmm your story does not make sense, but if it is like that what happened... is there any real evidence that you are indeed from around the sawmill house?” ask Mr. Kamid


“Easy sir, I bring the motor we hide behind the banyan tree.


“What is certain is that both wheels are a bit deflated and the engine seems to need improvement as well.


“Iya.. I trust mas... Now where do you two go?” ask Mr. Kamid


“Maybe we will go to Tina's house first sir, only the next day we will go to the police station in the city of S”


“I and Mbak Tina will rest first at home, only tomorrow night we go to the city of S to meet with police officers there”


“Eh sir Kamid...I ask for help, Mr. Kamid's meeting with both of us please be kept secret before we get something answer from the police about something we will ask later”


“I and Mbak Tina do not want this village to be an uproar sir, let the villagers think we are both dead”


“This village is calm, do not get noisy because there are sightings of us both”


“Only Kamid's father knew that we were both still alive”


“Iya mas.. I will keep it a secret, and for my friend who just ran away.. I will say that you two are ghosts” said Mr. Kamid


Inggrid had just been silent, it seemed like he knew something about the hole next to his tomb, and what the function of the hole was as well.


But for now I and Mas Agus have to report what we do and why until we said we disappeared from this village in a period of almost a year.


The answer is still long, but I think the problem of Paijo, Panat, Joko, and others is none of our business. That is the responsibility of the police.


All we have to do is deal with Ingrid.
