Chapter 5

Unlike the previous one. Currently Kevin has started to look back at some of the news that is now increasingly crowded. He looked through the computer monitor in his office. After several times there were irregularities, he could already surmise that perhaps something had indeed been unreasonable recently. However, he still couldn't find out who it was. After nearly an hour of constantly looking at the page, he thought that maybe all of this couldn't have happened by sheer coincidence. Kevin then finds something very strange and this time it looks like a news page advertising a service promotion. Those who do not understand the writing that is quite poetic, it seems strange that advertisements use language like this. Kevin thought again as if he had just found something that really made him feel almost frustrated. Not long after, Kevin ignored the ad page and immediately browsed through some of the news that contained about his friend's murder. Of all the existing articles, it turns out that the content is the same and there is still no latest news from the police regarding the progress of the investigation into this case. He had been waiting for this news for a long time and until now it still didn't come. At the same time , this time right inside the detective's office. One of the officers there discussed this case and it seemed that someone started to feel offended by it and not long after that they even made various remarks that turned out to be beyond reason. That person seemed to be annoyed and not only that, from the expression on his face it could be seen that he seemed to be having trouble. The officer immediately fell silent and no longer discussed the case. The people in this room seemed to already know what would happen if they suddenly brought this up and they decided to just shut up and say nothing. Someone then came into the room who turned out to be the previous detective who wanted this case in his hands.
“Wow, what's this? the situation looks very awkward. Are you all fast talking?” asked the detective jokingly.
“Hey you. It's best not to ask questions that are not important. Have you done your job well?"
“Ah, if that was of course I would have done it. There are just a few things I want to ask you guys.”
"What do you want to ask?"
"What about the continuation of the case?"
"Unlucky. You shouldn't talk about it right now."
"What? is something wrong? Hey, answer quickly!”
"Good grief. Maybe this will sound annoying.”
"What do you mean?"
"The case is still unsolved."
Hearing that, his expression immediately changed. This person seems to be annoyed with what they have done. He then looked at the other members and it turned out that they also didn't want to see him as if he already felt guilty for all of this. Now the atmosphere in this room is very cold and could even be colder. The case that was entrusted to that person, and it turned out to be nothing at all. Even though the bodies of the victims have been buried, in fact the mystery of this massacre still has not found a bright spot. They now seem to have given up because they always end up the same and get nothing. There are no pointers either.
Damn it. Turns out they couldn't do it. should have just given it to me. Didn't I tell you before?"
"It won't be as easy as you think."
"So what?"
“This case is different from ordinary cases. It's impossible for just anyone to do such an understanding act and with no clue at all it all seems to disappear. Can an ordinary person do all that? think about it .”
"I understand. It's just that if it continues like this there will be no results. Do you really not care at all?”
"It's not a matter of caring or not but they are too dangerous."
"They? Why do you mention them?"
"Because if you look at it in more detail, I think the culprit is not just one person."
"What?"
The confusion was getting more and more intense. Various things began to seep into the mind and make it very difficult to think clearly. The people in this room also seemed as if they had given up and didn't want to deal with the case anymore. They were clearly showing their deepening fear. While now there is only one person who really wants this case to be solved by him, but everyone forbids it. There are so many reasons that prevent this case from falling into his hands and most likely it will never happen even though he has begged. By this time, everyone was very annoyed and at the same time they were also frustrated because this job was indeed quite emotional. There were several other people who were also curious about all that and they were talking about it in a room where they were meeting. This time they had gathered and discussed the problems they faced. But one of them immediately discussed the massacre case and made the other three people also discuss it. Many puzzles and mysteries surround the case so it feels very difficult to solve. They then thought that maybe there was something that was deliberately kept secret.
"Why do you think like that?"
“This is just my opinion. I don't think there's anything wrong with that anymore."
"So you sure?"
"Of course I'm absolutely sure. If there isn't any, shouldn't they immediately deal with it and not have to delay further processing?”
"What you said is true. but to be honest there are still some that I find unreasonable to just say it's mysterious.”
"Which part doesn't make sense?"
“Doers and reasons.”
“Ah, damn it. That is true. If it continues like this, it is likely that the case will only be closed and there will be no results at all. Isn't that ridiculous?”
"Yes. And again our reputation will be destroyed which is public.”
They said what was in their heads and apparently everyone thought the same thing . There are still many people out there protesting because until now the case still causes deep trauma and fear. They also keep demanding to solve all of this. In reality, the police didn't even listen to these people and instead they just sat quietly in the office and didn't care what was going on outside. Someone already felt hopeless until finally that person left and no longer joined the gathering of people who were now in front of the police station . That person had given up and had no intention of coming back.
"That person left?"
"Just leave it."
Meanwhile, currently Kevin is still busy with his activities and now he has been in front of the monitor for almost three hours while browsing the internet. There were several reasons why he got like this and it turned out that all of them were indeed related to the death of his friend. A few days ago, he had noticed some strange things where that person usually always replied to text messages sent by Kevin even in group chats too. Surprisingly, everyone in the group chat asked about that person and apparently they didn't know how he was either. Initially Kevin only suspected that the person might be busy so there was no time to play social media. Those positive thoughts actually make others also think the same and they don't really ask that person more. In fact, they also only discuss things that are currently being discussed. Kevin felt that there was a need for that person and he immediately intended to meet him at the person's residence in the border area. Unexpectedly, when he came there, there was only a terrible sight. Kevin was immediately shocked and tried to help but it was too late. Their lives are gone. When Kevin was still browsing internet pages, it wasn't long before someone contacted him and that person turned out to be one of the friends in the chat group.
"Kevin."
"Ah, what's wrong ?"
"Now where are you?"
"In my apartment. What is it?"
“There are a few things I'd like to talk about. Can you come to one of the cafes near the city park?'
"Okay. I guess I'll be there later."
"Good."
"You were there already?"
"On the way."
"Are you going to discuss the case?"
"Wow, you guessed it. It wasn't fun.”
"So it turned out to be true."
"Don't tell me you're also looking for clues?"
"Not a hint."
"Then what if not a clue?"
"Reason."
"Hah?"
"The reason why all of that could happen."
Upon hearing what Kevin had said, the person immediately fell silent and seemed to be thinking about what Kevin had said. On his way, this fellow thought hard and soon arrived in front of that place. The person looked around and seemed to be looking to see if there was any danger or not. This person's level of vigilance is quite high and makes him constantly pay attention to his surroundings. Meanwhile, Kevin is getting ready to go there. And when he picked up his cell phone, he immediately felt a strange premonition. Kevin was silent and after that immediately went to the place that had been planned.
