194 THE DEMON APPEARED AS WELL
“What does Rita mean?”
“Begini mbah kung Sastro….. Just so you know Mbah. no one wants to get lost here up to twice like Mbah kung and mbah uti ini”.
“The average person will come here and will not try to wander here at night Mbah” said Rita as she walked into the interior of her house
Rita went inside her house, and then she came out again with a piece of polaroid photo that seemed to be a little worn..
“Try this photo mbah... “ said Rita while handing over a piece of polaroid photo.
“Mbah Kung and mbah uti remember not the photo was taken when where and with whom?”
A rather vague old photograph depicting a couple mbah Sastro with a guide named Rita…
Damn ... Rita had a polaroid photo when Mbah Sastro was here years ago. He has evidence that Mbah Sastro before his disappearance was here.
“That's Rita who has mbah... but mbah kung and mbah uti also have, because the polaroid was printed up to twice “.
“Now Mbah Sastro came here again , after yesterday Mbah Sastro came home sick. Actually who is looking for Sastro here who is Mbah?” ask Rita full of questions
“Mbah Sastro to be honest mbah.. I am sure Mbah Sastro know with people who live in slums that are not covered by the supervision of indigenous hunters”.
“Jawab to be honest, who knows Rita can help mbah Sastro” said Rita with a smile
I did not dare to answer, neither did Agus…. When I looked at Mr. Panat, he seemed to be reading the look on Rita's face, maybe he was reading Rita's mind.
I just let the stag state like this, let one person answer the question from Rita
“Alright..” said Pakat later.
“So like this mbak Rita…. I think Rita is a person we can trust, so we can explain what we are really doing here”
“So in fact we are from human nature...” replied Mr. Pangar slowly and then speechless, pak Panat was trying to lure Rita to talk”.
“We are from the human realm to this supernatural realm with the aim to find someone..mm not someone the heck actually, because in our nature someone is a subtle creature”.
“You are looking for beautiful women who like to wear white skirts and clothes…. He likes to use the name Ingrid?” rita asked with a smile
“B..how do Rita know who we're looking for?”
“Who else if not him….. Residents here no one wants to interfere in worldly affairs, no one wants to rule over nature there, and no one wants to control the area outside the Chinese settlement area is”
“We are here safe and secure...”.
“Mbah Sastro and Pak Panat are using a resident body here.. and I think this is inappropriate action, because Mbah Sastro has been here, and then disappeared around here”.
“But tomorrow afternoon Mbah Sastro can get out of here safely….. The doorman who knows whenever Mbah Sastro in and out, and the doorman always said to me, not to the lord of the palace” Rita's story about Mbah Sastro that happened many years ago
“It looks like you guys can meet that girl…. But don't be surprised by the original appearance of the woman. Anyway you just wait in front of the palace later after midnight”.
“Why do I want to help you?.... Because I myself feel the state of this region more and more not wearing after the woman I will not call her name is in power. she began to take over because of the older our leader here”.
“Sorry... I can't help you anything, I can only give you information.. When you guys are there.don't get there until three in the morning.”.
“You are here first until midnight, with the bell ring sign.. after midnight you can go there calmly”.
“I believe you must have been equipped with the knowledge that is qualified to burn the demon.. Please don't mention my name that helped you guys tonight”
Rita, it turns out that she is also a resident who does not like the power of Ingrid.
Rita was also willing to help us by holding us here until midnight, the same information that Jiang said, so we did not have to hide in the sewers anymore.
The three of us are at Rita's house until midnight, in contrast to Jiang who is afraid to accommodate the natives at night.
Rita did not show a worried or frightened face at all, she just casually entertained us with warm tea that tastes a bit strange and cakes made local area here.
“Calm down.. Tea and cake are safe for you to consume.. There is no mixture of fragrant ingredients that come from your nature hihi”.
“Indeed there are also indigenous people who are very fond of fragrances that come from your nature, and that is done by sorry the natives who are lacking in terms of economy”
“So they prefer to eat food from human gifts which are usually placed in crowded places by creatures of our people”
“But only the people who are not able in terms of economy only, sometimes they want to be made human slaves in exchange for the food you provide it”
“Sometimes also they want to do a despicable act as couriers to deliver sharp objects to be sent to the body of the intended person.”.
“But I'm not like that.. I work here as a guide, and I work as a manager here too..”.
Rita tells the story of how humans have always deceived and enslaved the inhabitants of the occult, by only rewarding food, drinks that are potluck and the smell of fragrances that are not much.
He also told me that sometimes the unseen people prank people by asking for more unreasonable conditions and more cruel to humans, so that people are kapok and do not play tricks on the unseen anymore….
But it turns out that man is still able to meet the unreasonable conditions that are asked by subtle creatures.by committing very cruel acts by killing his family or anything for the sake of wealth and high position…
The unseen themselves will not do anything as crazy as the man did.
“It is possible for those who do not know will do as Rita said, there are also those who cooperate with supernatural beings for a positive thing” said Pakat
“Nothing positive sir.Possibly for humans it is a positive thing.. but for the crypts it remains the same.”.
“Now I ask, what can man give to the cryptic?.... There is no.. Only food they can give” replied Rita
“While what man asks is various.. ranging from property, position, to magic... For me, this cryptic people are only as his human slaves only”.
“But there are also those who are not like that sir.. There are also very good and do not ask anything to the cryptic, want to know more about the people of samar”
“Mbak Rita.. I have one question that from yesterday I still can not get the answer...” said mas Agus.
“Begini mbak Rita. sorry I called mbah only yes.. Because we are just as young hehehe. So look mbak, what we will meet later is there still a blood relationship with the leader here?”
“Wah... sorry mas, I can not answer about it... because it is very dangerous for me. And I think you will know by yourself without help from I” replied Rita.
Well.. the same answer as said by Jiang here seems no one wants to answer who actually Inggrid is.
If I think Inggrid is the son of a flawed leader here.. Either it was a defect of his body or it could be a defect of his brain so he could act crazy hehehe
“Hushh... do not think it Mbah Tina. not good mbak” reprimand pak Panat suddenly.
“Iya sir.. I would only think if it was like that pak”.
When we were chatting, suddenly there was a fairly loud bell.
When I counted the sound was only heard six times, in contrast to in my village.the night guards usually hit the power pole up to twelve times to indicate midnight.
“That's the sign that it's midnight, you guys can get out of here quietly, but still be careful who knows there are guards who are still wandering whether they are looking for food or just to go back to his house just”
*****
We walked in the direction indicated by Jiang and Rita.They both indeed told us to be in front of the palace.
The atmosphere of the night was very quiet. there was no sound whatsoever.no one was hanging out outside or was coffee, because along our way there was no coffee shop at all.
There wasn't even a sound of crickets or animals at night here, anyway the atmosphere was very quiet, with nothing here.
“We continue when passing through the intersection that is in front there later that..” whispered Pak Panat.
“But we must remain vigilant, according to what Rita” said earlier
“Iya sir.. The atmosphere here is very gripping yes sir.. Maybe because it was so lonely Pak”
“True mas.. so lonely my ears to this strange buzzing mas”
“Any here is sir.. from earlier I look for cats and dogs, but there is not a single animal there, even the sound of barking dogs was not heard at all pak”
“Sama mas, from earlier I also fro listen to the sound of cats or dogs that usually if the night they wander”
We have passed the intersection, now just straight until it reaches the front of the palace.
Again, I do not think it is a palace.it is just a large house building and with a large courtyard in it, and is inhabited by the family of the owner of this area only.
It's just that the shape of the building is unique, beautiful, and the largest so it is suitable to be called a palace
And now we're in front of this building…..
“Let's just start the kids, we call his name as hard as possible” said Pakat
“What does not wake the other residents here sir?”
“Hehehe I really do not care mas. which is important how we can meet with him”.
*****
INGGRIIIDDD…..INGGRIIIDDD…!!!
“EXIT YOU FROM SANA” shouted Mr. Panat
“Our opponent.. We are here to fight you!” yell at Agus
I don't think challenging Inggrid here and under these circumstances is a good idea….. Why did I just think!
Since we are in his territory, we are in the area where he has full power over this territory. The area where he had an incredible army, the result of taking human spirits.
Several times Pakat and mas Agus called the name, but nothing came up from there.. Then I got a whisper out of nowhere.. Anyway in my head I started hearing people's voices.
This voice inside my head tells me to get out of here as soon as possible
I don't know whose voice it is, but it certainly tells me to get out of there, because danger is coming soon.
Several times Pakat and mas Agus shouted to call the real name should not be said. but unfortunately until this moment has not seen the devil or something scary….
“Mas..ayo we go from here only…. Tina think we are in great danger mas” whispered to mas Agus
“But we're here to meet with Inggid mbak... Cook we have to go from here just like that?”
“So someone whispered Tina mas, and told us to get out of here” as soon as possible
“We should not be in his realm…. We should be in a neutral place….. It's just Tina think of mas, all this time we're too emotional just”
“Waduuuh why that thought just came mbak.. Why didn't that thought come from earlier?” ask me about Agus
“Heii what you two are saying, we must focus on what will come soon the children” will appear
“We can not stop just like that, because we are already here and call that name” whispered Mr. Panat a bit emotional
It turned out that we were too late to realize what we were doing was right or wrong, as the gate of the palace suddenly opened…
And what came out was not a terrible creature as told by Rita and Jiang…
The one who came out was Ingrid.. Just like the Ingrid we have encountered in the human realm, the beautiful Inggrid with its distinctive box skirt.
“You came also turned out... let's go to my family's house..”.
“Once you guys just got here.. Inggrid has been waiting for you guys”.
