197 HIS NAME IS FONG


This garbage cart runs slowly between the crowded sound of steps from PDH shoes that are running around. The voice of the person talking about a murder was also heard from inside the trash cart.


Mr. Cheng's trash cart kept going slowly without anyone telling him to stop and check what was inside this wagon.


The longer the sound of people running around the farther away and the quieter it becomes.. Until the circumstances did not sound any sound then this wagon stopped.


But just stop and do not tell us both to get down.The wagon just stopped without any sound sir cheng told us to come out.


But indeed I know the situation outside may be precarious because of the actions of Mr. Panat who had done stabbing. And maybe now the guards are searching all over the area.


“Down y'all” whispered Mr. Cheng


It's a little difficult to get out of the pile of trash that's partly wet with slime coming from a long-rotting object.


With great difficulty my old body and Agus mas trying to get out of the garbage pile, and assisted by Mr. Cheng finally we can get out of the garbage pile


“There is a bathroom.. I will bring used clothes that I found for the wear sheet”.


“Now you take a shower and put on a change of clothes first, after that go into my hut until the situation here is safe for both of you to come out” said Mr Cheng


Agus and I are in a slum area.. Settlements that are no different from Jiang's place.but right this Cheng sir is full of used goods that might be sold out.


I took turns with Mas Agus to bathe in a public bathroom that was only a few steps from Mr. Cheng's hut


Mr. Cheng gave us one used clothing stel that is still fit to wear….


“Who are you, and what are parents like the two of you doing there, why did that person stab Inggrid?”


We were both inside Pak cheng's hut, which despite being just a dirty hut among second-hand items, but inside here the atmosphere was clean and tidy.


He sat down in front of us who were now clean from the trash.


“You know who the guy just stabbed it?”


“He is the future heir to the throne of leadership here, even though he is flawed and ugly he is a good man who always greet me every night when I take the trash at home he”


“While you are just a pair of old people who were really desperate to be there with the person who stabbed Aik Inggrid.. What exactly happened to you guys?”


I think it's time to tell what really happened here.The situation of me and Agus mas really can not be said to be safe, so therefore we must get protection from the residents here who can protect us.


Kulrikik mas Agus who was downcast and maybe confused by the situation that changed very quickly.


“Sorry Mr. Cheng. I will tell you who we are and what we are doing here” said mas Agus after being able to master himself.


“My name is actually Agus, and this one is Tina.


Mas Agus tells us the origin of us here, and what caused us here and why the stabbing happened like that.


Mr. Cheng just kept quiet while listening to what we were saying.he didn't interrupt at all what we were saying.


Our unfavorable situation is very dangerous, Mr. Cheng could have handed us over to law enforcement here for our involvement with the actions of Mr. Panat, but luckily Mr. Cheng was the one who wanted to listen to the story.


Although there were some questions that we had to answer, but he finally understood what our purpose here was.


“I understand what you guys are saying...” said Mr. Cheng.


“I will try to explain who is aik Inggrid who was stabbed by your friend..pun beautiful woman who you say as Inggrid who lives in a few meters from the palace was actually also Inggrid, but in a sense not the real Inggrid.


“So like.. Eehmmm I had to tell you the truth”


“My goal is to tell this so that you later after arriving at human nature can improve the name of Aik Inggrid, although we do not know how he is currently in his condition”


“Aik Inggrid is a disabled child of our head-marriage..”.


“At this time our leader is very old, they used to be close brothers who love each other..”.


“Some people here have heard about the condition of the child of our leader who is disabled, even though they do not know the actual physical form, and residents here are reluctant to talk about it”


“Some of it in the sense of the word not the whole population here know how the actual condition of Aik Inggrid”


“I know a lot about Aik Inggrid's parents because Aik Inggrid himself told me. He told me, because I was the only friend he spoke to when at night he sat in the middle of park”


“Aik Ingrid as soon as I call him..he is a very good person and should be the successor of that family”.


“But unfortunately because of his physical limitations it makes both parents embarrassed to show off the form of his son to people here especially to tourists who come to this fortress area”


“Starting from birth to the age of a dozen years, Inggrid parents have never exhibited their children to the community here”


“Until finally his parents are looking for another daughter.


“A beautiful girl with the aim to replace the position of Ingrid if you need the figure of Ingrid in the community and the tourists here”


“During this time Aik Inggrid was not allowed to go out of the house at all by his parents before midnight, before the circumstances outside the palace were deserted, before all the residents here have entered the house and locked their doors all”


“After being patrolled by a group of leaders here to check the condition of each house here in a closed state, after being sure no one roamed here”


“Patrol was done by several human hunters.The term human hunter is just a term that residents say here for the patrols it”.


“Of course the goal is to silence the mouths of Indigenous people who dare to infiltrate and spread the form of Aik Inggrid


“Aik Ingrid is allowed out of the palace to walk the road around the front garden at midnight after the Patrol, which is carried out, and aik Inggrid often met with me when I was carrying out my duties as an officer who took out trash”


“He will sit under a trembesi tree while singing to comfort himself.. He would invite me to chat when I passed there, but he could only be outside until just before three in the morning


“Aik Inggrid is a person who likes to tell stories, all he will tell to people he already believes like me. He will complain because of his circumstances so that he can not get out of the house and get along properly”


“Now about the role of a replacement from Aik Inggrid who is beautiful and young....”.


“At first there was no problem anything..”.


“As a replacement role from the princess of the leader here, of course, he has passed various tests that are super tight until then the woman who was once called by the name Fong passed the test as a replacement for Aik Inggrid”


“She was sworn not to divulge or talk about her role as Inggrid's ice substitute to residents outside the region. The oath was accompanied by various threats and applied to him and his family and descendants as well”


“He was also sworn not to spread the body shape of Aik Inggrid to the people here, anyway that Fong should know only he is Inggrid's replacement for affairs outside the palace”


“Sometimes after Fong is ready..leaders here for the first time to show off their children to the public here, and finally extinct already the view of the community here who thought that the child of their leader is disabled”.


“For everyday life in the neighborhood, Fong is required not to leave the house except for important things, and must use a Mask and there is supervision from palace guards”


“As a special person, Fong has been sworn not to violate what has become the rules that have been made by the leadership here…. He can mamatuhi”


“At first there was no problem.. And indeed I know there are no rumors that spread here.. but gradually I heard rumors he Fong began to do strange actions”.


“But the action is not in this nature, he did in the human realm there..”.


“She learned how to change her body shape so that it can resemble the deformed Ingrid Shape…. I don't know what she's doing out there, but all I hear is she's starting to spread Inggrid's real body shape”


“And which I now hear, he is now gathering the spirits of men to serve as his attendants and subordinates”


“I don't know why he did that.. Itupun I only heard this rumor from friends of other scavenger friends”


“We do not know what his purpose is by gathering the human spirits..”.


Mr. Cheng stopped his story, he was laughing, probably remembering what he had heard about the fake Inggrid named Fong.


“In my opinion, Fong wants to take over Inggrid completely sir. Maybe he has long planned this by learning how to change his form into Inggrid bad like” said mas Agus suddenly.


“Hmmm what you just said I thought about it a long time ago” replied Mr. Cheng


“So in my opinion sir.. Aik Inggrid no tau no.. Of course, it will not affect the community at all, because all they know is that the child of the leader is just beautiful Inggrid pak” said mas Agus


“And hope you know the stabbing incident earlier will not spread here, the residents here will not know what happened in front of the palace was” between Mr. Cheng


“Because the guards here have been sworn also to guard their mouth against everything related to palaces” said Mr. Cheng


“Hmm Tina taste Tina can trace her groove mas.. Sir..”


“So according to Tina.. Fong wants to replace Inggrid as a whole. He will take over the position of Aik Inggrid who is likely currently fighting for his life”


“Fong also knows that Aik Inggrid's parents are very old, so they of course have no other choice but to raise Fong to be their son completely and become their successor to the throne”


“Iya mbak... true who mbak say it” replied Mr. Cheng


“So Mr. Cheng said that the guards and guards here have been sworn to shut up with all matters related to the affairs of the palace, so that the residents here will not know what really happened kan”


“Tina think the population will ask a lot, because there were so many guards and palace guards who ran”


“Iya.. But the residents here will not ask what is it, if they ask no one can answer what is in front of the palace it”


“Pak Cheng's…. There's something that's a little bumping me up. Look, Mr. Cheng.. Fong's house is far away.. Eh well about a fewteen maybe even several tens of meters from the palace.” said mas Agus.


“Then how does Fong get to the palace when he is needed in the Palace sir?” ask me about Agus


“Hmm as per ever Aik Inggrid spoke to me.. Fong was going to the palace the night before, he was going to come out of his house after midnight wearing a mask and the clothes of a security guard” Cheng replied


“So the point is that no resident here knows who is the real successor of Aik Inggrid sir, is it sure that no one knows sir?. Instead of Fong was also a resident here before, what is the case for you, and the residents here should know and know who Fong is Pak”


“For that matter, Aik Inggrid did not know, I had several times asked Inggrid about who Fong was, and where he was from or where he previously lived, but Aik Inggrid did not know”


“That Aik Inggrid knew, suddenly his parents invited Aik Inggrid to talk about his successor and about his physical condition that was disabled it”


“Aik Inggrid could only cry and could not do anything when his parents said they would replace him with a person named Fong it”


I am sad and sorry for Ingrid.. He was like falling down a ladder..in a state of disability there are still people who slander by disguising themselves.


And even now Pakat tried to kill him…


But there is still a question mark..do Mr. Panat know who exactly Fong, and help Fong to smooth his plan?


Or was Mr. Panat only used by Fong to kill Aik Inggrid, because Aik Inggrid was evil to the people here, as Rita had told me about the terrible figure?


Okay if in the end Aik Inggrid died.. and eventually automatically Fong will be a permanent replacement... Then what about Mr. Panat, whether he will be free or even will die in this nature?
