The Rise of the Abject Man (Al Detective)
Chapter 17

Alvaro's black car had stopped when traffic signs were red, Alvaro's view turned to the car window, he saw there was a simple tavern where he and Bianca used to eat there. Now that place is just a memory.

After a long separation from Bianca, Alvaro never ate there again. Probably because of the memories they spent there. And Alvaro already knew Bianca was selling her little house, to pay off the debt Bianca's former college tuition.

He let out a heavy sigh as he recalled all about his past, his pain still ached in the upper reaches of the heart. A man can not cry, but that's what makes him more tormented because he can not pour out how the pain he feels. Alvaro felt his life was completely ruined and very bad at that time.

Love is replaced with hate, hate is so deep. It was very unfair to see Bianca who seemed to be living well and well, while Alvaro still felt a deep pain, even though he pretended to be strong in front of everyone, his heart is very fragile.

It felt like she was dragging Bianca, taking her to where she came from, which was to be a woman who had nothing, like she used to be. Even if he doesn't know what to do with revenge.

Alvaro was supposed to be back in the office, but he's still thinking about Alex's murder, although Alex has been named as a suspect in the corruption and murder of 6 women who have not been identified because of the condition of their faces are very destroyed.

Alvaro pulled over his car, saw a video showing a police chief interviewing that the six victims had something in common, on his wrists tied by a ribbon-shaped red rope, as if implying everything is a masterpiece.

'This case is almost the same as the discovery of 3 female corpses 7 years ago, with her wrists tied in ribbon-shaped red straps. Is it possible that Alex is a serial killer?' that's a little snippet uttered by the police chief.

Alvaro closed his laptop, 7 years ago, he was not in prison, he had indeed heard the news, because the news about the discovery of three bodies in the forest was quite shocking this country, he said, unfortunately, it was not caught by the perpetrator, probably because the perpetrator was very clever in removing fingerprints.

Actually he could have been acting stupid, let alone he wasn't paid in this. But still he will not be calm if if he has not been able to find an answer that stuck in his heart. Alvaro feels the serial killer is not Alex.

Alvaro chose to meet Risa at her residence, the 47-year-old woman was a client of Alvaro yesterday. There's something important he needs to investigate there.

"Why did you come here, Detective Al? Isn't our business done?" Risa seems to object to Alvaro's arrival to her house, as if she is afraid that Alvaro will investigate something in her house.

Alvaro's name is not if he does not have much sense, he brought some photos of the results of the investigation he has done, the photo shows the affection of Alex and his mistress. "I just want to give this photo to you."

If you look at the look on his face and the look of Dion in the photo, it looks like Dion does not have an emotional, his gaze he is so flat, a little creepy. But Alvaro can't guess, because he's not a psychiatrist. It's just that he learned a little to know someone's character.

Risa knew what Alvaro was looking at, she immediately said, "My son is indeed rarely smiling, he is very shy. But now he's changed a little, even when he was in college in America had a lover, until now he and his lover are still dating." Risa said like that as if wanting Alvaro to know that her son was a normal human, hence having a boyfriend.

A psychopath usually has no interest or desire, so with Dion having a girlfriend, can break Alvaro's suspicions. The proof is that his girlfriend is still alive today.

Risa immediately brought the photos given by Alvaro, "Thank you for helping me in finding my husband's affair, I also know for sure you are reporting a corruption case committed by my husband. He deserves punishment for his actions. But I think our business is done, so you don't have to come here anymore."

Alvaro has not been able to leave before getting the answers he is looking for. "Emm. I hear your son has become a businessman, wow great your son. But where is he now?"

Risa actually strongly objected to answering questions from Alvaro, but she was forced to answer them. "My son is out of town, he's very busy with his job."

Then a maid came with two glasses of drinking water, and placed them on the table. He glanced at Alvaro as if he wanted to say something, but he became frightened when he saw Bu Risa staring at him.

"You can go detective Al!" Risa wants Alvaro to leave her home immediately.

Somehow Alvaro felt sure something was wrong with the man named Dion, especially his mother looks as if she is hiding something.

"I wonder who Dion's girlfriend is?" muttered Alvaro, he was already in the car. He has to investigate his lover Dion, is it true that Dion has a lover? Is her lover still alive? Somehow Alvaro felt when he saw Dion's gaze in the photo he had seen, his heart said that Dion was like a psychopath.

Alvaro decides to go back to the office, he wants to tell Danu to find out who Dion's girlfriend is. If his girlfriend is still alive, who knows he can get information about Dion from her lover. Because usually a lover will know how the character and character of his lover, it may even be a place to share the story.
