POV Hasan
My nose ached these few days smelling the scent of poison. What with this I have grown.
Dr. Brian prepared 2 glass jars filled with a very strong acidic liquid. Every time I close my eyes and let this nose work. Approaching this liquid that can melt the skin makes my other senses develop.
My sense of touch began to sense danger from around like a super spider. This feeling began to make me uncomfortable, I asked for a short break from the tiring lessons.
Next to my cheek hung a strong-scented mushroom to train my smell. The other servants who saw my situation were silent, but from here I could hear their sharp words.
Ever since I was forced to hang out with Dr. Brian, people have started to stay away from me because my body is always covered with poison. I can't take it anymore.
"Doctor Brian, I want to stop being your guinea pig." I said firmly.
"Why is that sudden, Mr. Hasan? Though a little more you can reach the maximum level of your talent."
"That "maximum level is only in your imagination. Now I'm smart enough to no longer obey your words."
We stared at each other intensely. I felt like I was breathing poisonous smoke into his face.
"If you're not able to do it, I won't force you. But don't talk like I did something bad to you. How about we have a drink together?"

POV Narrator -
Hasan receives Doctor Brian's invitation, the location chosen by Doctor Brian himself. With a good heart Doctor Brian treat Hasan eat big in the cafe sweets.
"You like dessert? If you don't like to give it to me. I really like sweet food." Said Dr. Brian with a beaming face. He scoops one by one the desserts into his mouth, greedily without breathing. He has a habit of not breathing when scooping food into his mouth.
That unhealthful habit he had since childhood.
Unlike Hasan, he bribed with a heavy heart, sweet food is delicious and gives happiness because of the addictive substances in it. Too much can lead to diabetes.
Hasan shifted his dessert plate to near Doctor Brian, Dr. Brian immediately devoured everything. Feeling disrespectful to Hasan for eating his part until it was done without rest Doctor Brian also apologized.
"It's okay, doc, I can understand your obsession with sweet foods." Say Hasan straightforwardly.
"Then what is your obsession Mr. Hasan. What is that about smell?."
"really so. I'm looking for a perfume called Love Phobia Trauma Apple."
Doctor Brian coughed spitting food onto the table.
"I'm sorry, but what kind of name is that...?"
Dr. Brian stifled the laughter by clogging his mouth using a peanut cake.
"I also don't know for sure the real name of the perfume. I found out about it from someone when I went to the farfum bazaar that had an explosion incident the other day. The perfume has a very strong apple aroma, even I got drunk when inhaling it. As a person who is familiar with a variety of smells have you ever heard of apple perfume that can thrill the soul?"
Dr. Brian thought by looking around him.
"I've never heard of a perfume with that much power. But if there's a chemical."
"It is impossible for a chemical substance to be put on the human body. That's not what I'm looking for."
Then the clues came unexpectedly. BPOM received a special report from a farfum factory that is thought to be a supplier of fruit-scented farfum that Hasan met at the bazaar.
BPOM does not technically take care of perfume. They take care of the harmful substances mixed in the farfum bottle.
Hasan accepted this job with pleasure. He and Mr. Naryono sped up at high speed because he said the poisonous perfume had to be withdrawn immediately.
"Our job is to find a brand that's mixed with poison. This is the time to show you the results of your hard work Mr. Hasan."
"Ready sir!," said Hasan straightforwardly.
Arriving at Hasan's location was a little disappointed because he could easily find which brand was problematic. On the one hand, Mr. Naryono was very happy because he managed to record Hasan's actions while on duty.
Unbeknownst to Hasan but with Hajeera's permission, Pak Naryono uploaded the video to Youtube.
As a result, the name Hasan was increasingly famous, and the factory that sells troubled perfume was getting a bad image from the community.
At that time both Hasan and the factory did not know that their name was viral. This is because most of its employees are tech snappers.
Hasan digs through Apple's Trauma LP information at the factory. He asked one by one, but because they were just ordinary employees who worked in factories that made not famous perfume, they knew nothing but the brand of perfume they sold.
Hasan returned to the car feeling disappointed.
"From the look of your face, they don't seem to know anything?"
Mr. Naryono lit a cigarette in your mouth. Smoking while leaning on the hood of the car, it feels very comfortable for parents like him.
"so. Do you think I should look for that perfume in all corners of Indonesia?"
"No need to get to that. If the perfume is indeed very fragrant it must be a famous brand. So that perfume must be one of the thousands of unknown brands out there." Mr. Naryono gave his opinion.
Then pull Hasan's shoulder into the car.
Just when Mr. Naryono and Hasan left the factory owner saw the video of his factory problem on youtube. The caption and title of the video were not unilaterally cornered but the explanation of the amateur voice in it was enough to make the factory owner ketar ketir.
Mr. Naryono knew what he was doing and the consequences. He dropped Hasan off in front of a roadside stall at his request.
Hasan who just got money to eat from his boss decided to use it for good. He bought fried rice complete with his side dish for his old neighbor in need.
But when he arrived in front of his house Hasan was surprised to find a green flag installed in the yard of the house.
"Who died?" Inner Hasan.
Hasan passed by the mourners, she softly said excuse me and when she got in front of the door there were 2 bodies lying there.
They are 2 small children in this family, one is 7 years old, another is 9 years old.
Hasan looked at the lifeless bodies of the two children who were always smiling happily at his arrival. What makes them safe at the same time?.
The mother cannot talk to the father either. They are in deep sadness.
Hasan asked one of the mourners who seemed to routinely justify the covering cloth that was exposed when blown by the wind.
The mourner explained that the two children died of food poisoning.
They both died after eating expired canned fish.
