*TOK TOK TOK (Sound type door)
.
"The village chief was found dead in his house!" said the citizen.
"What?! How come?" said Rezz's Dad.
"Then we have to get there!" russell.
"Yes, you're right, let's go check the situation out there right away" Rezz's father said.
"Well, let's postpone the break, because it's not night yet, so let's go there" Russell said.
"Okay I understand" said Michael.
"Let's go there" said Mikael.
"Rezz, you just wait at home, yeah," Rezz's dad said.
"All right," said Rezz.
"Let's get to the village chief's house" Rezz's father said.
"Come on" said Russell and his friends.
.
After walking through the village for a while, finally Rezz's father, Russel, Ayaka, Michael, Mikael, Rafael, and Wisang arrived at the village head's house which looked quite crowded there.
.
"Then I'll check inside first, you guys please wait here for a while huh," Rezz's father said.
"All right," said Russell
"Okay, sir," said Mikael.
.
"It turns out it's a real rame here" Russell said.
"It's only natural, because this is actually an unexpected event," said Michael.
"Yes" said Ayaka.
"Hmm.. who is the culprit of all this?" wisang.
"Where would we call ourselves to help investigate this case? russell.
"Well, you can" said Ayaka.
"OK I agree," said Wisang.
"But how?" Rafael.
"Before we had to divide into two groups, the first investigative group whose job is to investigate the area around this scene, and the second information search group, continued, with interviews of residents who were witnesses and were around this place," Russell said.
"Okay," said Rafael.
"So what's the division of the group?" said Michael.
"I volunteered to get into the information search group" Ayaka said.
"Okay, if that's what I'm going to get into the investigation group" Russell said.
"How are we?" Mikael.
"You can make the group as you want" Russell said.
"Hmm, that's why I entered the investigation group," said Wisang.
"Okay, that's why I got into the information search group" Michael said.
"I also want to go to an information group" Rafael said.
"Yosh, meaning the rest of Mikael, you automatically enter the investigation group," said Wisang.
"Ehhh, okay," said Mikael.
"Kayak kind of forced to do that Mik?" wisang.
"Ah, it's okay" said Mikael.
.
.
.
Russell, who took the initiative to help the villagers in investigating the death of the village chief, was welcomed by Rezz's father, their idea was immediately approved and they could immediately start an investigation around the crime scene. Meanwhile, Rezz's father and several other villagers will try to secure the surrounding area so that something threatening does not happen again.
.
.
.
After sharing the tasks, they began to carry out an investigation. Russell, Wisang, and Mikael who were in charge of investigating the village head's house as the scene of the crime entered the house.
.
"Then we go first to interview the people around this house," said Ayaka.
"OK," said Russell.
Afterwards Ayaka, Michael, and Rafael go on their group mission.
.
"Yosh, so what should we do now?" Mikael.
"Well, we're gonna have to find a clue in this place, what else?" wisang.
"Oh, okay," said Mikael.
"This is the first thing if we look at it at a glance, indeed the house of the village head does not have much room, it is not, there is only a large room where we are now as a living room as well as a kitchen there, then there is one bedroom and a toilet," Russell said.
"Yes, and there is only one floor," said Wisang.
"So how?" Mikael.
Russell begins to investigate one of the unusual-looking parts of the room.
.
"Hmm. If we look here, it appears that the ground is rising" Russell said
"It's not just up, crack even," said Wisang.
"Yes, here are some fragments of land as well" Mikael said.
"Hmm.. how can this piece of land be so sturdy?" wisang.
"While the texture of the original soil of this house is like clay in general," Russell said.
"That could be one of the answers, but we still have to wait for the statement from the party who carried out the autopsy to the body of the village chief" Russell said.
"Then, while waiting for his statement, let's look for another clue" Mikael said.
"Yes, come on" said Wisang.
.
Meanwhile Ayaka, Michael, and Rafael interview some foreign-looking merchants, they dress quite differently from the villagers of most fog, and they happen to be selling not far from the village chief's house.
.
"Hmm. excuse me," said Rafael.
"Ah, new buyer?" said Traders 1.
"No, we're here to interview you, because your place is selling not far from the village chief's house" said Michael.
"Why indeed?" said Traders 2.
"Don't you know what's going on right now?" say Ayaka.
"Yes, we know, he said the village chief had been killed" said Merchant 1.
"So do you know anything behind all this?" said Michael.
"No, all day we are in this place, waiting for buyers who want to buy our goods," said Merchant 2.
"But why do you look so foreign here? Your clothes are also very different from most people in this village?" Rafael.
"Yes indeed, we are from an area not far from this village, we are sustainable traders of many worlds, every few moments we will move places to trade there," said Traders 1.
"Hmm.. okay, so you don't know anything about this?" said Michael.
"We told you earlier, we don't know anything about this incident, so if you have no other interests please leave here!" said Traders 2.
"Hmm yeah, we're going" Rafael said.
"Well, sorry to interrupt the timing" Ayaka said.
.
.
.
"What the hell are they, I suspect them" said Rafael.
"Calm down, Raf, now we're looking for other people and we've got the information we got first" Michael said.
"Yes right" said Ayaka.
"Okay," said Rafael.
.
.
.
In the end, the two groups investigating the murder of the village chief went quite well, after a while had passed they all gathered at the village hall to tell them what information they got.
Arriving at the village hall saw Rezz's father, several autopsy teams, and members of the security had gathered, so Russell and his friends immediately sat down and prepared to start a meeting.
.
.
.
"Well, first of all I would like to thank all of you who have worked fast for these few hours to find time to investigate the murder of the village chief, especially for Russell and his friends. Therefore, now we are in this village hall to hold a short meeting, about what clues have been obtained to investigate who killed the village head," said Rezz's father.
"Well, first of all we from the autopsy team have obtained some results that are felt to be a clue, the first on the body of the village head found a puncture wound in the stomach area, which is located in the area of his stomach, total found 3 pieces of puncture results on the body of the victim, the rest were found no other heavy injuries, only a few small wounds and scratches on the legs of the victim suspected of being caused by the ground," a spokesman for the autopsy team.
"Hmm, then Mikael's assumption that the ground at the village head was burned was immediately broken, because there were no burns on the body of the victim" Russell said.
"That's it, yes" said a spokesman for the forensic team.
"Yes, we just found some more solid ground popping up like a hill to the surface, and some ground shards around the area" Russell said.
"Hmm, so the provisional assumption is that the village chief was killed by a stab, huh?" said Rezz's Dad.
"Yes, it seems so," Russell said.
"Well, if from the information search team how, is there a clue that you get?" said Rezz's Dad.
"Hmm. We did not find much clues, from the results of our interview earlier, many villagers claimed not to hear any noise or screaming from inside the village head's house when the murder occurred, he said, some of the residents also claimed to have seen no sign of people entering the village chief's house this morning, and the rest of us only interviewed foreign traders who knew nothing about this incident," say Ayaka.
"foreign traders?" said Rezz's Dad.
"Yes, they wear clothes like black robes, and the attitude is not so good" Rafael said.
"I've never heard of anyone with such traits in this village" Rezz's father said.
"Do they need to be suspected?" Rafael.
"Calm down, for now we don't need to rush too much, let time reveal who the perpetrators of the killing of this village chief" Rezz's father said.
.
*DARRRRR (Sudden rain that is quite heavy down and lightning flashes appear).
"Eh? Sudden rain?" russell.
"The wind is very strong, the roof of this village hall seems to be blown," said Mikael.
"Cock the weather can change this fast? That feeling was bright?" Rafael.
*DARRRR (The driver snatched once more, and ushered two mysterious people in black robes appearing in the middle of the village hall).
"LOH?! THAT IT?!" Rafael.
"The mysterious merchant?!" say Ayaka.
"How can you?!" russell.
