The Police
Chapter 8's

Regitta stepped out of the office. Police outside have been overwhelmed by the arrests of journalists and residents.

"Commissioner Regitta, what about our safety?"

"How can they kill 3 cops at once?"

"If they can kill the police, what about us?"

"Give me your explanation, Commissioner."

"We're scared."

"Commissioner, is there no way out?"

"Commissioner, say something."

Regitta took one of the microphones from reporters and he spoke. "We are not silent, we are taking action. You don't have to worry, we patrol every 24 hours and install a lot of CCTV. If there is anything suspicious, you can contact us at any time. You guys don't have to worry. Now you can all come back."

After saying that, Regitta went back in. He's running into Wildan.

"Commissioner Gitta, this time do not fail. If you and the team fail, I can't keep incriminating you with this case."

Regitta nodded. "I'll take this case to the end and close it with my own hands, trust me... Senior Brother."

In the apartment, in,

Regitta was fiddling with her computer in the room.

The residence is not too big. There are only 4 rooms. The living room, one room and the workplace, kitchen and bathroom.

In her room there was only a wide sofa for her to sleep on. The beautiful police commissioner seems to choose a simple life.

The woman looked at the papers that were stuck on the wall with red threads that stretched out to each other.

"There are a lot of cases that I've solved over the last 4 years. But what kind of case is this now? Old case to open? Evidence and witnesses are almost non-existent."

Regitta snorted and threw her body onto the sofa.

"Mom, I miss you."

Jakarta, Indonesia

The heat of Jakarta makes Regitta have to open his coat. Bayu who was driving, turned to his superior.

"It's very hot here, Commissioner," said Bayu. Regitta turned to Bayu while rolling her eyes.

They entered a fairly large meat factory.

"Does Mr. Robi work as a cow slaughterman, after retirement?" Ask Bayu.

Regitta put her shoulder out. "I don't know, but the pension he's getting is huge."

"Regitta," called someone wearing a t-shirt and a glove that was coiled around his waist.

Regitta and Bayu looked over.

The two men immediately paid their respects. Robi laughed at the behavior of his two juniors.

"I'm retired, there are no more formalities between us."

Regitta and Bayu looked at each other.

"Is there bad news?" Asked Robi who didn't seem to want to make small talk.

Bayu let out his voice, "Have you heard the death of Mr. Haris, Mr. Erwin, and Mr. Dani? They were killed by someone we haven't caught yet."

Robi surprised.

"Oh, yeah. All right, just do what your boss tells you to."

Regitta and Bayu nodded.

When Regitta and Bayu left, Robi scrunched her forehead. "Is it possible that the gangsters cancelled the deal 7 years ago? Why did they kill my friends?"

In the evening, Robi picks up a thick book from a drawer. There are many numbers in the book. The middle-aged man found a number by the name of San Cortez. Robi took her old cell phone and called the number.

"You still have my number, Detective Robi?"

"Why did you kill them?"

"You just found out about your friends' deaths? Looks like the police covered up the news from the media."

"We shut up, why did you kill them?"

"If I'm to be honest, I just killed Commissioner Dani, someone else killed Haris and Erwin. I don't know who it is. He's still out there. Maybe the next target is you."

"You can't kill me."

"It's not me who's gonna kill you, it's that guy."

Tut, tut, tut, tut.

Robi throws her phone on the floor until the battery is off.

"Who is that guy? Why are the police hiding this from me?!"

The next day, several policemen were seen standing guard in front of Robi's house. Not only that, in front of his factory there were also many police.

I feel in prison. Gradually they can know about this, inner Robi.

◈◈◈

Meanwhile, at the police station, Regitta and the others are still busy looking for information about Dani's killer.

Regitta looked at the dreamy Tiva while staring at the screen. He felt sad to see the girl's expression. Usually Tiva will show an enthusiastic expression with his cheerful smile.

"Wood," call Regitta.

Bayu. "Yes, Commissioner?"

Regitta moved her face towards Tiva. "Take him for a walk after he gets home from here."

Bayu nodded.

During the Cafe, Tiva remained silent, even though there was Bayu in front of him. The girl did not touch her drink at all.

For a long time Tiva felt bad if he kept silent. He said, "Papa is a hard man. Maybe someone else thought, if I was spoiled, because the only child. It really isn't."

Bayu listen.

"If I make a mistake, he'll get angry. I didn't do anything wrong, he'll bring up my past mistakes."

Bayu rubbed Tiva's hand.

"I don't know what to do so Papa doesn't blame me."

"Tiva, you've fought so far. For your father to be happy there, you have to make him proud. Be yourself and do the best for everyone, including yourself."

Tiva smile. "Thank you for accompanying me, Bayu."

The man smiled warmly.
