SAWMILL
198 WE WERE SOUGHT

Mr. Cheng apparently knows everything about Ingrid and Fong. Yes obviously he knows, because every night talking to Ingrid. But now Inggrid no longer exists…

He could have died, because the stabbing of Mr. Panat that I had heard it was done many times, but I did not see clearly, just now, because Agus and I are in a pile of trash.

Now it could be that Mr. Panat was caught and interrogated about his purpose and who he was with when he did the stabbing…

Where did Pakat get the knife and something thrown at Ingrid, did he get from Fong or did he already keep it when he came here?

“So it could be that Fong is not from this region sir?” ask Mas Agus

“Iya... could have been like that, because as smart as he hid should be residents here no one knows where he came from and where his home.”.

“But as far as I can tell, none of the residents are concerned that they have seen FOng before around this area” said Mr. Cheng ending his story

“So in essence..Fong is now in full power over Inggrid if Ingrid really dies yes pak”.

“Iya.. and I can no longer get information about what happened there. And I don't care anymore…. I can't be angry because I'm just a little guy. And no one will believe what I told you”

“Oh yes sir... whether after this stabbing the care here will be tightened, there may be a search sir?”

“Hehehe I think not mas..because the residents here no one knows what happened, most of which there is only the entrance of this area will be more supervised…that's just the possibility that will happen mas” replied Mr. Cheng

“Pak Cheng Tina want to know where they brought Pak Pantang?”

“Begini.. Here no one knows where the location of the police building or guard this area”

“Means how mr Cheng?”

“So here is indeed kept secret where the house or building of the police station or guard here, the goal is that the people here will not commit crimes, he said, because it could be the office of security officers or police it is around the house of residents here”

“Such as the example was... when a stabbing occurred.. Suddenly quickly there are many officers who roam around there right mas. in a matter of dozens of seconds they can arrive”.

“That's because their office is around there mas”

“But why when the two of us got into the trash cart of Mr Cheng they did not know and did not search sir?”

“For the answer to that question I am we they will not think if you two get into my very smelly garbage cart.”.

“Because the important thing is that the killer has been caught and does not cause an uproar, so they assume it is finished just like that.”.

“But they will later interrogate Mr Pakat pak?”

“IYes it must be mas, which you should know, for now you can not go from this area freely, and surely they will find where you are”

What this Mr. Cheng said has a point….

I can't think for now how to get out of here. I no longer care about Mr. Panat, he has committed crimes against Ingrid.

While the motive for him committing this crime that I do not know why, is it because of persuasion Fong who claimed to be Ingrid who told to kill the evil Inggrid who is the original bad look?

Because when we were at Rita's house.. Rita will have time to say that we will later meet Inggrid who can turn into a terrible figure that has caused Rita” displeasure

So I don't think Rita knows about the real Inggrid, she only knows about Fong who turns out to be terrible.

Oh yea.. There was Lili, she was always in the palace, maybe she knew about Ingrid and Fong.

“Pak Cheng..what do you know about Lili?”

“Oh I know about LIli only from the story of Inggrid mbak... Lili palace employees, and Lili is one of the confidants of Inggrid's parents, it's just that Inggrid never spoke with Lili… well because it is forbidden to contact with others”

“If Lili is a confidant of Inggrid's parents, should she know about Fong and Inggrid dong pak?”

“Waduh sorry mbak.. I have not been able to judge to that extent...most importantly, you should leave here immediately as soon as possible, because your friends will open their mouths about you two as well”.

“Pak Cheng's…. Actually I already want to return to our bodies, I want to leave here as soon as possible, but we do not know how to go from here and return to our world pak” said mas Agus.

“Hmmm.. I know one person who has been to the human realm.. He's the scavenger here that you told me about earlier.Jiang hua xiang.he can help you get back to your realm”.

“He lives not far from here, he's a scavenger while I'm a garbage man, um you guys wait here, I'll go to Jiang's house first.. Do not open anyone who knocks on the door of this house other than I”

“Good sir Cheng..”Answer mas Agus.

The house was deserted when Mr. Cheng went from his hut to look for Jiang, he said Jiang's house was not far from where he lived, meaning Mr. Cheng would not be long gone.

I'm afraid when there are guards or police who will search this shack house to find us… because Pakat will definitely tell him where and meet with anyone during his time in this area, and he will definitely talk if he meets Jiang and Rita.

“Mas...”.

“Hmm. Yes mbak..”.

“Tina is afraid mas.. Tina is afraid that Pak Pangat story about us and about Jiang mas”

“Iya.. That's what I was thinking about, because Mr. Pantang will definitely be interrogated by the officer”

“What should we do mas?”

“We have to get out of here as soon as possible.that's all mbak”.

“Soal pak Panat how mas?”

“Let him here mbak..”.

“In my opinion he is familiar with Fong, and most likely he has long known with Fong, we are only used as a tool by Mr. Panat”

“Because of what we are used as tools, because Mbak Tina is a descendant of the forest inhabitants”

“Tina should get help from the forest people, if Tina's mom gets any danger….. And that's what Mr. Panat understands and Mr. Panat expect”

“So in action Pakat will be safe because there is backing from mbak Tina, but it turns out what was the estimate of Pakat was missed, there was no help, and he was caught”

“Well the most important thing is, we should be able to get out of this area and return to our nature, then we go far and forget what happened mbak”

“Iya mas.. but how can we get out of here safely?”

“We wait for news from Mr. Cheng alone mbak.. hopefully Jiang can bring us home”.

I can only give up, because I have no way to get home from here. And hopefully Mr. Panat does not say that we are also with Mr. Panat.

I'm confused because what's going to happen is beyond our reasoning, even I can't think about how we got here and how we should get home.

TOK TOK….. TOK TOK…..

“Open the door Cheng” said the person outside

“Open Cheng door, we know you are inside. We have some questions we have to answer Cheng” said the person outside again.

I automatically hold the arm of Mas Agus…. And mas Agus was silent with eyes that stared at the door of Mr. Cheng's hut

There was no sound of footprints walking here at all, suddenly there was a knock in this house.

The door of the hut with a single kick can be opened easily, because it is only made of planks and wood arranged sober.

TOK TOK….. TOK TOK…..

“Open the door Cheng” said the person outside

“It looks like Cheng is not at home sir.” said another person

“Hmmm but this is a wet footprint that goes into Cheng's house, that footprint from the public bathroom it” said the person who called Mr. Cheng

“Ya could have been Cheng sir's trail, he could have taken out the trash then washed his feet or took a new bath then entered this house” replied another person

“But why there are two traces .. This is the footprints of two people who entered into rumah”

“Hahahah this father does not know Cheng only. he will sometimes bring women from outside sir..”.

“Maybe he is now looking for a place to have fun with the woman he just brought that sir hehehe”

“But earlier our colleague who met Cheng did not see Cheng with two people who as said the person we hold today pak”

“If he is really with Cheng, this wet trail should not be two people, but three people pak”

“Uuuggghh stinks at the smell of this Cheng garbage wagon. We check Jiang's house only, this person we hold he said from Jiang's house also kan” said another voice.

Mas Agus still looked at the door of Mr. Cheng's house with fear.

But the sound of these footsteps is now getting away from Mr. Cheng's house, I estimate there are four of them

Fortunately, it was only me and Agus who bathed in the public bath, fortunately Mr. Cheng was the type of person who was dirty, he just washed his hands and then went into his house.

But now they were heading to Jiang's house,. And it turns out that what I was expecting happened too…. Mr. Pangat open his voice about me and Mas Agus…

“Jangkrek Pangat it.he opens his voice about us mbak, we are indeed made a tool by him, we are made a shield he also”

“And now with his leisure he brought us also mbak” bisik mas Agus when the people had gone from the front of Mr. Cheng's house

“Sstttt silent mas.. Who knows there are still people out there mas”

“Kita should tell Jiang and Mr. Cheng who are most likely still at Jiang's house but I don't know how to tell them both”

“Don't look for problems mas..we are still safe at Mr. Cheng's house alone is lucky kok”

“Iya lucky mbak, but we can not go back to our nature if Jiang and Mr. Cheng caught”

What Agus said is true, but he did not think that we do not know the direction and purpose here, nor do we know where the security guard came from.

“Mas..remember Mr. Cheng said earlier.They security guards could have come from anywhere, they could have come from around here, remember earlier did the sound of footprints heading here?”

“Iya.. But we have to find them and don't let them get caught mbak”

“Iya mas Tina know, but Mr. Cheng said earlier, we don't go anywhere, just stay here, Tina sure they have more experience than the two of us mas.”.

“We do not know the ins and outs of this area, we do not know where the police came from, only Mr. Cheng and Jiang alone may know where they came from mas”

“Iya.. Bener mbak Tina. we just wait here mbak”.

“They both must be hiding somewhere now.. And Tina is sure they're both fine just”

Mas Agus is reckless, it means he wants to save Mr. Cheng and Jiang, but we both are blind in this area at all, even then add to the burden of both of them when we are both caught.

So I think it's better to wait for them to come first, than we get in trouble when we're out there.

Maybe thirty minutes had passed, but neither Cheng nor Jiang were seen, I thought that the two of them must have been hiding somewhere.

I'm actually not good at involving Mr. Cheng in this crime, uh but not involving anyway, he who involved himself by telling the two of us to hide in his garbage cart.

And now he's the target of the security guard here, the security officer who's looking for them in all corners of the area.

“Mas... there is a sound of footsteps in front of the mas house...”.

“Sstttt.. Whisper whisper only mbak”

“Maap mas..lupaaaa.. “.

“Iya.. I heard there were footsteps leading to this shack house. but it must be Mr. Cheng and Jiang mbak.”.
