After Two Decades
The Conspiracy Behind It All

I was still standing in the middle of that spacious room. Think hard and brainwash how to save Prof. Ram. Where is he? There was not a single bit of information we could get about the attacker.

I was in an emotional storm. Full of anxiety and panic attacks. I never thought it would be like this. Because before this, I was too enthusiastic and hopeful on this time machine. Even more so after I learned the facts about father's murder. Therefore if this project fails, then it will be the most painful blow of my life. Complete all the misery and misfortune in my life.

But I don't want to give up. Renato was not his name if it was just thunderous without coming up with the slightest solution and idea. I have to keep thinking and thinking, there must be a gap between all of this. There must be a shortage. There must be a little something that although trivial but can be used as an important clue.

Amidst my confusion, suddenly the monitor screen displayed on almost every side of the room died. All the computers that were active there also died, the screen went dark. However, strangely, it looks several times twinkling white. I'm dumbfounded. Something is wrong with all these devices. Was it damaged due to the impact of the battle and the firefight earlier?

Suddenly the next thing that was seen surprised me. Makes me look like I can't believe it. Because all the monitor screens, computer screens, and any screen that is there on displays the same thing. The black base screen flickered white like it had a short circuit, but suddenly a running script appeared. The running inscription reads, "Ram Ranayuda is safe with us! Enjoy your failure!"

All the screens showing the same thing. After that the screens like short circuit and then die.

"Our computer network was hacked!" a professor shouted furiously.

"Damn it!" my sift. Whoever is the brain of all this assault. They were really playing us. Very neat and planned action they do.

Scientists rush to the computer and network control panel of the operating system. They try to fix and look for data and information that may be useful.

Dani's coming over to me. Then he asked, "What now, sir?"

I thought for a second. Then make a quick decision. Trying to make the best plan.

"You guys stay awake here! Secure all professors and time machines!"

"Then, you?"

"I'll go back to headquarters, after that I'll go wherever I have to go to save Prof. Ram!" answer me with enthusiasm and confidence.

"You'd better be escorted, sir!" advice Dani.

"No need," I replied firmly. "All the troops remain on standby here, take care of this lab and all the professors, lest we fail twice!"

"But, sir, what about you?"

"Don't worry, I'll go with a reliable person. Don't think about me, I'll be fine!"

"The most reliable guy? Who, Sir?" ask Dani.

I smiled knots excitedly. Without answering, I immediately stepped out of the dazed Dani in the spacious room. I rushed to the outside door. My bike is still safe where I came from. I immediately jumped up, started the engine and then slid. Drove as it has become a habit. I can't waste time anyway. The faster, the better.

Not waiting for a long time, my motorcycle has docked to the parking area of the Korp headquarters building. Masadepan. I'm heading to my study soon. Along the way, the office staff just greeted me kindly. No one asked about the events in the laboratory, as almost all of them already knew. Because between the labarothorium and the office is not disconnected from the information connection. I didn't go straight into my study, I chose to go to Mr. Roy's room first.

"So, Prof. Ram kidnapped?" ask Mr. Roy as soon as I sit down at his desk.

"Yes, Sir!"

"Is there any update on the perpetrators of the attack?"

"For now there is not yet, sir! We're in a deadlock!" I answered with a heavy heart.

"Do you have a plan?"

"I don't know what to do yet, but I will try. Wherever I have to go, I will find and save Prof. Ram. This project must go on!" my firmness.

"What are you gonna do, Ren?"

"Try as much as you can, sir!"

"All right, I trust you. Good luck, Ren! I'm sure you can be relied upon in this!" said Mr. Roy.

"Alright, Sir!" I withdrew from that room. Immediately to my workroom.

Just arriving at the door, Hadni greeted me with an anxious and worried face.

"Rin? You all right?" This girl was busy checking my whole body. Sharply looking maybe there are blisters.

"I'm fine, Hadni!" I rushed to the desk. Sit in front of the brightly lit screen. Shut up and lean back for a moment in the chair, relaxing my tired muscles.

"Geez, Ren, your face is bruised!" hadni panicked. He's coming right up to me. Then the girl stretched out her hand, probably wiping my face.

"Don't, Hadni!" my arms with my eyes fixed toward the screen.

Hadni flinched and pulled back her hand.

He said, "Sorry, Ren! Do I need to get you a cure?"

"No need, it's common!" my answer. I'm busy opening up old data from our company's past projects.

"What are you looking for, Ren?" ask Hadni.

"I'm opening up an old database about our previous project. About the armed attacks that have happened before."

"Can I help you?"

"Well, please collect that data again, as well as a record of the list of companies or organizations that have dealt with us. Who have been involved in disputes and are likely to be enemies. Please collect all the complete data of the last relationship and the following with the analysis. When you're done, send me the file!"

"Ready, I'll work!" answer Hadni.

"All right, thank you, Hadni!" I immediately moved from my position. Prepare to leave again. Tidying up for a while my suit that was tangled in a mess because of the fight earlier.

"Where are you going now?" ask Hadni.

"Hunting the man behind this attack, and saving Prof. Ram!" firmly answer.

"Be careful, yes!"

"Of course!" I walked out of the room with spirit and confidence.

Motorcycles run on the streets like a car. Precede every vehicle encountered, no matter the small vehicle or large vehicle. I turned the crowded city street atmosphere into a race circuit. I lead in the front position while dozens of other vehicles are rivals I should not let go ahead. Every time my eyes saw a vehicle ahead, I would increase the speed as if I did not want to miss. Some people sometimes exclaim angrily because of the speeding action I did.

Not without reason, but I really have to hurry. You must not waste any time. After all, such speeding actions have always been powerful as entertainment for me in the midst of all the serious things that burden this mind. So, I kept going.

I drove far enough, so that before the magrib I just got to the destination. An elite home complex that is so luxurious. Entering the page I began to slow down, until finally stopped in front of the veranda.

I got off the vehicle. Immediately to the front door of the house. Just as I took a breath to call the host, suddenly the door opened. I saw a woman who was the same age as me open the door.

"Oh, Renato!" sapanya friendly.

Thats her. I was at my best friend's house asking for his help. The person I can most rely on. I'm sure his profession, which is an intel and elite police officer, will be very helpful. However, it was Fitri who welcomed me here.

"Jan's not home, Ren!" answer Fitri.

"Oh, where is he?"

"She had left for the office this morning as usual, usually now home. I don't know why he hasn't come home either" Fitri said.

"Have you called?"

"It was, but it wasn't lifted!"

"All right, now let me try calling, yeah!"

I reached into the bag to take out my mobile phone. Hurry up to find Jan's number and call.

The call was connected without waiting for long.

"Cash, Ren! Where are you?" fad Jan without further ado.

"Where are you, Jan? I'm looking for you at your house!" my reply.

"Ah, you are! I'm in your house looking for you!"

"In my house?" I nodded and then patted my forehead. Geez, this guy could.

"Yes, Ren! I'm looking for you, I've heard about the attack on your lab. So I decided to look for you, there's something important I want to say!"

"You know what our jobs are like, right? Why are you looking for me at home?"

"You're looking for me at home, aren't you?"

"Eh, forget about that. Where are we meeting?"

Jan chuckled for a moment. Then he said, "In a normal place!"

"All right, see you!" I hung up. Then looked at Fitri who was impatiently waiting.

"Jan was at my house, Fit! But now we're going to meet. I need Jan's help tonight, there's urgent work. So, I'm sorry if Jan's late tonight!"

"Hmm?" Fitri's forehead wrinkled. A little while he was astonished and thought, but finally he nodded in agreement.

"All right, good luck and you're okay!" unpretentiousness.

I smiled knot. Back up to my mount. Immediately start the engine while remaining friendly staring at Fitri.

"Ren, please take care of Jan, yeah!" this Jan's wife's message.

"Good, Fit! Take it easy, I promise we'll be fine. Maybe even Jan is looking after me!" my answer.

"Thank you!" fitri.

"Thank you back, Fit. Bye bye!" sahutku. After that my motorcycle roared, sliding from there. Return to the road when riding the road. It's getting dark. The lights are starting to light up. The streets are getting crowded.

***

It was really dark when I got to the building. The sports hall that used to be where Jan and I met. In the parking lot, I can see my best friend's luxury car. However, the owner was not seen there. I rushed straight to the elevator. Ride quickly to the top floor. I know, Jan must be waiting there. At the silat athlete training ground.

The elevator is sizzling as soon as it reaches the destination floor. I stepped in haste. Jan stood reverently on the edge of the glass wall waiting.

"How's the lab doing?" jan asked as soon as I arrived beside her.

"A little mess and some damage, but no casualties on our part. It's just that ..one of our 23 best scientists was kidnapped. Profs. Ram Ranayuda, the most important figure in this project."

"It looks like your opponent is a really smart guy."

"That's how."

"But there's good news for you. I got a little hint about the troops attacking you!"

I immediately looked enthusiastic. "Seriously?"

"When I got word that Korp's lab. Masadepan was attacked, I wanted to bring down the police force to help. However, he said your executioner forces can still handle that. I kept waiting for the latest news until the attack was finally muted and crippled. Our representatives were sent there to identify who the mysterious people were. Indeed, the operating system and the internet network did not find specific information. That's because the people behind this make smart anticipation, it uses technology to engineer data and hide important information from public access. I asked for pictures of the invading forces. And guess what? I recognized the faces of some of those people. That's why I was in a hurry to find you!"

I'm in disbelief. It's really a fresh breeze for me. It's not wrong that I rely on him.

"So?" my insistence.

"Some of the attackers were special forces belonging to the Green Floor Building who attacked me the other day. You remember, right? When I blew up my car that night?"

"Green Floor Buildings?" I shouted half a scream.

"I don't remember wrongly, Ren!"

"So you're saying, the Green Floor Building sent those troops to attack us, and was responsible for Prof's abduction. Ram Ranayuda?"

"That's how it is."

"But this is weird, Jan!" kataku later. "Corp. Masadepan and the Green Floor Building have no problems. There is no history of disputes, interrelationships, rivalries, any disputes. I've only dealt with once about our tech thing they're using. Besides there is no. So for what reason did they attack our project and kidnap a key figure in the project?"

Jan pondered for a moment. Then said,

"By abducting the most important person, it's clear that the goal is to thwart your project, but ...."

"But what's in it for them?" cut me. "What are their disadvantages if the project is completed? We have nothing to do with it. Their business is a gambling business, while we are technology developers. Our innovations should not be profitable for them. I really don't think it out."

"There's a conspiracy behind all this, Ren! This attack is definitely not a playful affair."

I'm nodding.

"But now that we don't have time to think about it, we must hurry to save Prof. Ram!" said Jan. He turned back and stepped.

"You're right, Jan! We can't waste time. Come on!" We step side by side.

"You ready to infiltrate that building? I have a plan!" said Jan.

"I'm ready! Whatever the risk, for my father's sake!"

"Your father?"
