2232 Words
  The journey of Kriss and his friends is still ongoing, a journey that have takes many days is not easy for them, because there have been many things that happened from good to bad things, but they have always been successful in dealing with it's. Apart from being chased and attacked by a group of cars on the toll road, they also received several attacks elsewhere. For example, when they are in a restaurant, they almost die of poisoning, but fortunately Romi brings a poison detector which he always dips in the food or drink he is going to consume, so that they can all be prevented from the dangers of consuming poison.  In addition, there is also traffic engineering that is being implemented on the road they are traveling on, which causes their car to switch to an alternative route, which is apparently very quiet and separated from the crowd, so that in such a situation, Kriss and his friends will become very vulnerable to being besieged or being trapped. But fortunately, Romi uses a GPS device whose signal will remain strong even in remote areas, so they can switch from the dangerous alternative route to a safer route.  There was one more incident when they were filling gas in the Rest area, Lisa, who went to the toilet, didn't come back for a long time. Unwittingly by her friends, apparently in the public toilet, there were two women who ambushed and tried to paralyze Lisa, but with great struggle, Lisa tried to fight them both in the toilet with all her might, especially by using her martial arts skills, although it was very difficult for Lisa to beat them both, it turned out that Lisa managed to match their fighting skills and even made it difficult for them, because Lisa used all the tools in the toilet, she wrapped toilet paper around the enemy's head, sprayed water, slammed the door to the enemy's face, even removing the electric switch and then inserting the enemy's palm into the electric switch whose wire was already opened, so that the enemy was immediately electrocuted and fainted, while one more enemy immediately fled full of bruises and soaked.  Then when Lisa had cleared up her business in the toilet, she immediately returned to the car, and of course her friends were suddenly shocked when they saw Lisa's face, which was already injured, so they all immediately asked with feelings of anxiety, but Lisa only answered briefly  "I'm fine, I just had a little trouble with the toilet ... Let's go." Tell Lisa.  Then Kriss immediately started the car engine and they began to continue their journey again, and a few moments later, when Kriss was busy asking about Lisa's condition, Romi immediately whispered to Beni.  "Mister Beni."  "Yes." Said Beni.  "Later if I want to go to the toilet ... Will you please accompanied me?"  "Geez, fine." Beni answered while covering himself, then he fell asleep.  Even though the journey they were on was filled with dangers, but they didn't really care. Because the most important thing for them now is to catch Jiro and Adnan immediately. Apart from that, the four of them also possessed their respective special abilities that were very reliable, so looking down on them was not a wise thing to do.  On that trip, Beni asked Kriss.  "Hey Kriss."  "Yes."  “By the way, we already recognized by Mr. Hendry Danu, so why don't we just ask him for help? So maybe he will let we to borrow a jet plane. " Asked Beni.  Then Kriss replied, "... Hmm, he is not my father. I can't always ask him for help, other than that you know for yourself that he is very difficult to contact. Surely he also has his own business. "  "Ouh ... Okay, I understand. I only represent Romi's question. " Said Beni.  "What?" Romi said confused, because his name had just been involved.  A long time had passed, until finally they had all entered the east coast, from a distance they could see a vast beach. Soon they will arrive at the port area, and there they will meet Beni's acquaintance who is a native Papuan who works as a fishing boat captain. His house is located in the port area, so later Kriss and friends can stay overnight after being tired all day of traveling, then the next day they will immediately depart again to continue their journey by boat.  They arrived at the port area in the afternoon, in the port area there were several wooden docks with many boats and ships tied up and staying there, besides that there were also many huts and fish farming ponds owned by residents, and of course there were also many people's houses that made the atmosphere there. became busier, and more alive.  Finally Kriss and his friends arrived at Anton's house, the friend Beni was referring to. Anton is a black man, with a tall and handsome body, and his hair is shaved. He lives in a simple house with his wife and 5 year old son. Upon arrival Kriss and his friends there, Anton and his family immediately greeted them and invited them to enter.  There they were treated like guests of honor, and were served very well, a few moments later, Lisa was seen being treated by Anton's wife while accompanied by Romi, Lisa's face, which received a few cuts and bruises, received pretty good care from Anton's wife, named Siera.  Meanwhile, Kriss, Beni, and Anton are seen sitting chatting in the living room, with Anton's child sleeping soundly on Beni's lap, it seems Beni and Anton's family have a pretty close relationship.  Anton explained that he was a drug courier a very long time ago. He worked as a courier for these illicit goods not on his own accord, but because he was invited to migrate to Jakarta by a friend and was forced to do the job so he could survive life in the city. Until one day, Anton decided to run away and return to his hometown, but he was caught by his boss and then he was beaten almost to death. It was then that Beni (who still works as a member of the Police), came with several other police officers, and they succeeded in stopping the persecution process as well as arresting the drug kingpins.  Then Anton, who was treated at the hospital with the status of a prisoner, felt sad because he could not give news to his family in his hometown, such a mother and dad, so far Anton had always been giving good news to his family, but now, due to conditions that were not possible, Anton would not giving any news again, and it can cause the family to be worried and questioning.  However, Beni, who always came to visit Anton, also felt sorry to see Anton's current state, who was seriously injured, awaiting trial, while worried about his family. Therefore, Beni offers to help Anton, he will periodically update Anton's family in his hometown, and Beni will only provide good news to them. Then besides that, Beni also acted as a witness who defended Anton in court, because Anton actually didn't want to work like that, and he was forced to do that, by his friends and boss. The confession and evidence given by Beni at the trial succeeded in making the jury understand, so that Anton's sentence was only 2 months. It should be much longer than that.  Then while in prison, Beni also always visited Anton and allowed Anton to call his family so they wouldn't worry. And after the 2 month prison term had passed, Beni was the one who picked Anton up from prison, then he gave Anton money to pay for his return to Papua.  Since then, Anton has never forgotten Beni's services at all, he keeps asking Beni many times while shedding tears, why did Beni willing to give Anton that much care? Then Beni answered. "Because, if you ignore a person who is in trouble, hurting, and is grieving at the same time ... Then that means you will only allow that person to die slowly. I've given you a second chance to live, from now on, live well and honestly. "  "Very well sir." Said Anton.  Since then, they are still in touch with each other, either by telephone or in person. Even when Anton married Siera, Beni attended the wedding. Then every now and then, when Beni has business in Papua, he will definitely take the time to visit Anton's house, so now he is very close to the family.  Anton told Kriss his story with great enthusiasm, it seems that wherever he goes, he will always tell about the deeds Beni has done to him, even though Beni has repeatedly forbidden this.  Then Kriss also responded to the story with a sense of admiration, and he listened to Anton seriously from beginning to end. Then after Anton finished telling, Kriss immediately said.  "Wow, yes I remember, Beni also told me about you. But i only know the full version now, directly from you. " Kriss said with a smile.  "Hmm, then by the way, why is Mr. Beni now no longer a police officer?" Asked Anton.  "It's for one or two reasons ... We better not discuss it." Beni answered.  "You have did lots of great things back when in the police force." Said Kriss.  "Yes, I'm happy when the two of us can help so many people." Beni answered.  "Oh yes, regarding your coming here, can you tell me now?" Asked Anton.  Then Beni and Kriss looked at each other, after which Beni nodded to give Anton a signal. So immediately Anton understood and told Siera, who had finished treating Lisa, to come immediately and take their child so that he could be moved to sleep in the room.  So after that, Lisa and Romi immediately came and joined Anton, Beni, and Kriss in the living room to talk about the mission they had to do at this time. Long story short, Beni immediately told the gist of the story.  "Look Anton ... I don't want to endanger you and your family, the mission we are currently carrying out is very dangerous and personal. But because right now we are in desperate need of a ship, we are coming to you. So in essence, we want to ask permission to use your ship. Can I?" Ask Beni.  "Of course you can ... Oh yes, in the message you sent, you also mentioned an island, right? Please allow me to be the one to take you there. " Anton made an offer.  "What? No, don't ... We don't want to get you any further on this. It's too dangerous. " Said Beni, which was agreed by all Team members.  "It's okay Mister Beni, I just insisted. I want to keep going no matter what. " Anton said with determination.  Then after hearing this from Anton, Beni and his friends could not say anything else. They must agree and listen to the words of the ship captain, who will take them to the island where Jiro is.  A few moments later, suddenly Anton's cellphone rang, because there was an incoming call from his friend. Then with a serious face, Anton immediately picked up and listened to his friend's report.  Putting the cell phone to his ear, Anton said. "What? Yes, yes, all right. I understand." This made Beni and his friends a little confused.  Then after hanging up the phone call, Anton immediately turned to Beni and his friends while showing feelings of anxiety. Then he began to convey what he had heard.  “Mister Beni, when you came with your friends who looked tired and injured, I immediately ordered my friends who were around this settlement to stand guard and patrol. Then just now I just received a report that there are several burly men with full weapons, walking into this area. So what do we do now? " Asked Anton.  After hearing this, Beni and his friends were immediately shocked. Romi even said, "Hmm, Jiro has managed to find us again."  Therefore Kriss immediately took a quick decision so that their existence was not surrounded there. He immediately ordered his friends to pack up because soon they would be leaving, heading to the dock where Anton's fishing boat was. It was already 9 o'clock in the evening, in a dark situation, the people who were hunting them would have a little trouble finding them, especially those people who probably didn't really know the area, and only had the coordinates from Jiro.  Swiftly and deftly, Kriss and his friends were packed and ready to leave Anton's house, but they were still waiting for one more person, namely Anton who was still saying goodbye and hugging his wife, then he kissed his sleeping son on the forehead, and immediately left. following Kriss to join the Team.  On the other hand, or rather, on the side of the hunters who were aiming for the lives of Kriss and his friends, there was a man wearing a leather jacket and carrying a gun, was walking in front of the hunters who were lined up, the man gave a few sentences of instruction to all of them “As much as possible not to lose track of the target.” The man who led the hunters was none other than Adnan, who now looked a little more manly and muscular, because he had been busy increasing his physical strength lately. Adnan looks impatient to be able to hunt Kriss and his friends.
