Alex swung his baseball bat, hitting one by one three-foot men told him to, having failed to bring Arum to him.
"Based on you all bodh, useless!" point to the one-third people who are looking down in fear.
"Why do I pay you so much if you catch a little mouse you're not so bad," he got angry again and went back to hitting the baseball bat at the feet of three people, venting his misery, he said, making the three people complain of pain, while holding their legs without being able to retaliate.
Yes, how Alex was not upset at the three, the article, when they reached the apartment, it turns out that Arum was not in the apartment that allegedly became the place where Space hid Arum. The apartment was empty, there were no furniture or occupants inside.
Space has managed to fool them.
"And you!" point it at his men who are in the middle. "Wasn't that time you said Angkasa brought her to that apartment, why isn't there now?" Alex shouted, making his neck veins visible, and his face flushed red with annoyance.
"Sorry, Mr. Alex. But at that time I was sure if the young man took your woman to the apartment. And you see it for yourself. The name of the apartment, the floor, and the what unit?" he answered with a voice trembling with fear.
I don't know where the courage from that he could answer Alex. And for that answer too, his back could feel how hard the baseball bat was.
Agrughh.
Gebedughh
One hit of Alex's baseball bat made the body of his men fall to the side, it can be ascertained if one of his vertebrae was broken as a blow was quite hard. But none of his friends could help him, because if they did that, it would be the same as giving up their lives.
"So you blame me for this failure, bodh? You should know, if that damn pilot moved it, why didn't you know it. What's your job every day eating blind pay, huh?"
Alex returned furious and swung his wand, making the man's body reflexively bend inward and his hand raised to protect his head so that Alex's punch did not hit his head.
"Alas, sir, forgive my mistake. I admit it's my fault, I promise I'll find where your woman was transferred."
Alex revealed his baseball bat, not so moving again, he bent his knees, lowered his head, brought his face closer to the man dressed in all black whose face was lying on his stomach withstanding the pain. Alex pulled her hair, making the man's face look up at her.
"This time I'm sorry for your mistake, I'll give you one more chance. But I don't want you guys to fail again this time," Alex took off the clutches of the man's hair so rough that his face hit the floor, and he stood up.
"I've changed my plan. Your job is to bring Arum's parents to me."
Alex said as he stepped out of the empty warehouse he had made a place to torture his men, he put one right hand in his pants pocket, and simultaneously, he said, his left hand tucked a stalk of glasses behind his ear until the fantastic precious black glasses were installed beautifully framing his face.

While Angkasa who had avoided Alex, had reached Edward's apartment. He smiled, imagining Alex's annoyed face for failing to find Arum's whereabouts.
"Lion against the tiger, I think it's a balanced enemy, man." Space is really satisfied, can make Alex fooled. His hand pressed Edward's apartment bell.
"Captain's been here a long time." Edward's complaint when the door was open.
"There were a bunch of lions on the road, so I had to turn around so as not to be pounced," Angkasa replied stepping in while releasing his pilot tie, putting the tent he was carrying on the table.
"A pack of lions? How can? Is there a lion roaming around in Jakarta, Capt?" edward asked not to understand the meaning of Space's words.
"Yes, maybe the lion of the ragunan loose." The more dramatic the answer, the more Edward believed it.
"What time, Capt? But how come there's no news on the television, huh? I watch the news all day, Capt."
Space sighed, tired of talking to Edward.
"That won't be in the news, because the lion I mean can drive cars and planes." Space looked at Edward who had a confused face, "What are you doing? How's it going." Space is looking forward to meeting Arum.
"So she fell asleep again, there was a sister Andini accompanying her inside."
"Eh the Space Master. Good night, sir." Andini bowed her little body respectfully.
Space nodded. "Let me take care of Arum, you rest."
"Thank you, Mister. Then excuse me."
"Em Sus's. Did Arum say anything to you?" tanya Angkasa makes Andini who has been at the door stop.
"Yes, Miss Arum told me about her relationship with a man named Alex, she also said if she was worried about her mother's condition, Arum wanted to take her mother away."
"His mother?"
"Yes, Sir."
Angkasa frowned, feeling strange with Arum's words. Will Alex also use his mother to get Arum back? If it is like that, Angkasa must quickly find the Arum family. Alex is not to be taken lightly.
"Come out, and get Edward."
Andini resumed her steps, and called Edward. Edward came shortly. "Ed, do you know about the Arum family?"
"Arum family? No Capt. Where do I know, I'm not a census officer."
"I'm asking seriously, Ed."
"I'm serious too, Capt. What's wrong?"
"I think Alex is going to use Arum's mom, so I'm asking you."
"Is Captain Alex that scary? I thought Captain Alex was just auggant at the airport." Is Captain Alex also a psychopath?" ask Edward who doesn't know the truth.
Space did not reply, he walked towards Arum's bed, and sat down before Arum.
"I think it's like that if hers is harassed by others, but she herself doesn't take good care of hers." As the sky looked back at Edward, he shook his hand as a code to get Edward out.
"Alright Capt. I'm out, but there's no demon between us." Edward felt expelled while closing the door.
After making sure Edward came out, Angkasa took Arum's hand, kissed the back of the hand gently, then the view of Angkasa pondered on the beautiful face that was still closed, rubbed Arum's forehead with a lot of affection.
"You must be strong, Arum. You have to tell me all your problems, I promise I'll protect you."
Arum who could feel Space's gentle strokes instantly opened his eyes. The space quickly released the grip of his hand, and pulled his hand from Arum's forehead.
"Captain? Why are you here?" Arum slowly lifted his body. Sitting leaning on the head of the bed, staring at Space.
When the sky wavers, he is afraid that Arum will return angry at his lack of hand like the night when he invited Arum to dinner, Angkasa becomes very nervous.
"Thank you that night Captain had helped me," Angkasa was stunned by Arum's remark, he thought Arum would be mad at him.
"If there's no Captain, maybe that night
I've-"
"It's okay. As our neighbors, we need to help each other, right? I didn't do anything."
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward, both of them were ambushed into silence, both Arum and Angkasa were confused about what else to say.
