BERHALA ISLAND
EPISODE 30: CRAZY PLANS

    Podin's work is not so smooth. The income is too little, so it is very less to pay employees and all operating costs at the entertainment venue. As the saying goes like a big stake rather than a pole. Yes, between income and expenditure is not balanced. If this continues to happen, surely his business will experience bankruptcy.

    Moreover, Maya, his young wife who always asked for money for various kinds of affairs, which he said wanted to raise the business, but in fact, to this day still has not shown results. He said he had to bring in artists for a promotional event, but the edges were even tombok, without any significant results.

    Podin who had run out of his mind and mind, finally he could only resign, looking for a way with a shortcut. He still forced himself to come back to the Island of Berhala, even though at that time he had seen himself on the Island of Idols, Podin found the head of his son. He found his son's body. Podin who believes if the possibility of his biggest son, his son who died oppressed when he wanted to go to school, would have been used as a collateral for the acquisition of wealth on the island of Berhala.

    Yes, at that time Podin had taken a lot of treasure in the palace of the Island of Idols. Even he still remembers dipping his hands in a basin filled with water, suddenly the water turned into blood. And at that time, Podin's hand was immediately a bloodbath. And when he came home from the Island of Idols with a chest containing treasure, suddenly, that morning, once he was home, immediately got the news that his biggest son had an accident, he was hit by a truck in front of his school. And his son's head was missing not found. Podin had actually predicted that, if his son became a collision to take the property.

    Likewise during the demolition of his son's grave, which turned out to be an empty coffin. The body of his son was not in the grave. Her son's body just disappeared. That was actually a sign for Podin.

    Especially when he arrived the third time on the island of Berhala. Podin watched for himself, he found his son's head whimpering in pain and asked him for help. In fact, he also fell headless corpse, who was wearing red and white clothes like SD child uniforms. Podin certainly understood that it was the body of Eko, the head of Eko, his dead son.

    And lastly, as he was about to return to retrieve the treasure chest, when Podin washed his hands in a basin filled with water, suddenly, three small children's heads appeared. For Podin, actually he also realized, surely the Palace of Pulau Berhala will again ask for the fall of his children.

    However, the greedy man wanted to obtain wealth without bothering to bother it, did not want to realize, that in the Palace of the Island of Idols it is the place of his agreement with the idols, he said, his fellowship with demons and devils.

    That morning, Podin continued to drive his car south. Surely heading towards the South Sea, where he always stops to wait for a small boat that will take him to Pulau Berhala.

    But this time, Podin did not pull over to where he usually stopped. Podin turned his car. He headed to the traditional Port of Pamayangsari Beach in the Cipatujah area, which is a port place for fishermen and tourist attractions that are crowded with tourists. Where in the area there are a lot of fishing boats are quite large. Of course, Podin wanted to ask for help to rent a large fishing boat, which would be invited to take him to the island of Berhala. Podin wanted to transport the treasure using the huge fishing boat. So that the ship can carry many treasure chests. And for sure, later the ship will be paid a very large rent.

    "Sir ..., I can rent the boat ...?" asked Podin to one of the fishermen in the waters of Cipatujah.

    "For what, Mr ...?" asked one of the fishermen who was met by Podin.

    "I will rent to take me to an island" said Podin who certainly hope that the fisherman will take him to the place of Pulau Berhala.

    "Waduh .., if I can't, sir .... Because of this I have just arrived from the sea, looking for fish. I want to rest first .... Try using those tour boats. The boats are rented out to tourists. Usually they want to take the tourists to wander around the ocean ..." so said the fisherman who of course he was exhausted because all night he sailed the ocean looking for fish with his friends.

    "Good, Sir .... Then I will try to ask the owners of the tour ship ..." said Podin who would have been happy because there was a boat rental.

    Then Podin stepped towards the place where the tourist boats are leaning are widely used by tourists to have fun around the ocean. Yes, of course with the tour ship, he was clear to pay the fare, because the ship was used for sightseeing, which can be chartered by anyone who wants to enjoy the beauty of the south sea.

    "Sir, can I rent the boat ...?" so asked Podin to one of the people in the tourist port with ships that have been prepared for rent by the visitors.

    "Where, Mr ...? ask the person who was on the ship.

    "I asked to be delivered to the island across the street .." said Podin, pointing to an island far away, but from that place a little look of plants on the island.

    "Waduh, sir .., that's Pulau Berhala .... I dare not approach, Mr .... I'm afraid." said the man who was first encountered by Podin.

    "Walah .., I'm afraid of that .... What's going on there? Just to the island alone .." said Podin to the person who rented the ship.

    "I don't dare, sir .... Just ask my other friends, who might be brave" the tenant of the tour boat told Podin. And of course, the ship's rental service was not willing to look at Podin anymore, because he thought that Podin was a strange person who would go to the Island of Berhala. The man was afraid to see the face of Podin.

    Indeed, for the people of the surrounding area, they know that Pulau Berhala is an island that is always avoided by fishermen. The island is always avoided by boat drivers who take tourists around the ocean. But this time, after Podin came to the place, and suddenly Podin wanted to rent a boat and asked to be escorted to visit the Island of Idols that was very feared by the people around it. Of course, the fishermen and other boat owners will be afraid to hear the word Pulau Berhala.

    "Yes if not brave .... I will try to ask the other shipbuilder" said Podin who was certainly annoyed with the person he first met earlier.

    "Will anyone take me to the island?" podin said to people who were on tour boats for rent to those tourists.

    "Where, sir?" ask the one who is still cleaning the boat.

    "To the island. I want to pay a price" said Podin while showing the island that looks very far from the tourist attraction.

    "Friends ..., who would dare to take this father to Pulau Berhala ...?" ask the man to his other friends. Surely they want to know in case there is a friend who dares to deliver a man who will rent his ship.

    "Where ...?" ask the others.

    "This father is going to Pulau Berhala ...!" replied friend.

    "Huh ...?! To Pulau Berhala ...?! Keep the cost dare to pay high is not ...?!" ask his other friends. Of course for the owners of the rental boat that is important is the cost.

    "How much will he pay?" ask other friends.

    "I'll pay, whatever the cost. Anyway, if anyone wants to take me to the island, I will pay ten times the price" said Podin, who was certainly annoyed with the owners of the ship, it is thought that it will only pay a little, like the tourists who rent. Hence, the directly challenging Podin will pay a heavy price.

    Of course, people who work in the rental service of the ship even become curious, because Podin would pay very expensive.

    "I want to .... If the pay is high, either sir ... Okay, I want ...."

    "I also want to ...."

    "I want to ...!"

    "Just like me, sir ...."

    As soon as the people who were there said, they scrambled after knowing that Podin would pay the rent for the ship at a great price.

    "Can ..., may ..., may .... Let's please .... Want to be with family or group. This ship can make about twenty people. Pretty big ..." so said the person who did offer services for water tourism in the southern sea. The man was already holding onto Podin's arm, to be invited onto his ship.

    "There is no group. I didn't bring a group. I'm just alone. But I asked to be escorted to the island across from it" Podin told the ship's owner.

    "Well .., that's too far .... And the island is rarely passed by people, rarely to be visited, sir" said the ship's owner who of course he reasoned.

    "I want to pay dearly. I'll pay whatever you ask. What matters is that you want to deliver me. Later if it succeeds in reaching the island, my father will give me the payment, whatever you ask. I'll pay for it." so said Podin to the owner of the ship that had stood by at the tourist spot.

    "No problem .... No matter how much we pay." so Podin said convincingly to the man.

    Finally, the owner of the ship agreed with what Podin wanted.

    "Alright, sir then. Please get on this ship. A little forward, yes, sir, let's draw. I will take the father to the island." so delivered by the owner of the ship, which of course he immediately turned on the engine of the boat, the outboard engine that was behind the ship. The man had prepared his ship to deliver Podin to the island he asked, namely Pulau Berhala.

    "Be careful, Ndan ...!" shouted friend.

    "Yes .... Sure ...."

    "Slow down ...!"

    "Read ...!"

    Finally, the ship began to walk slowly leaving the Port of Tourism in Cipatujah. Slowly and steadily the ship sped into the middle of the sea. And of course, Podin finally became happy, because he would succeed in bringing the treasure he had hoped for. Of course, he would mock the boatman who always drove and picked him up, who he knew that the boatman was just a human body without a head. The boatman with a small boat run only by a pole, which was believed by Podin that the boatman was part of the idols on the island.

    But for Podin, he had no business with demits, no business with demons, no business with demons, no business with hauntings, no business with ghosts, no business with his son who only visible head, or even with the bodies stacked without a head. What mattered to Podin was his desire to retrieve the treasure, the treasure that was on the island.

    The ship with the outboard motor continued to advance to the middle. Podin was in front, as if to give instructions to the owner of the ship, who was behind which of course he held the engine of his motor taped behind the boat, to run the boat. He drove the boat towards the island indicated by Podin.

    Indeed, from the first time that Podin headed to the island, since the first time that Podin entered the island, no boat at all passed around the island. Even the residents on the island did not dare to come to the island, which of course they were afraid, they did not dare to approach. They are certainly afraid to listen to mystical stories about the Island of Idols. Of course they no longer dare to approach the island. Therefore, the people around the island do not want to intersect, even just talking about it is already frightened.

    Indeed, around the island it was very quiet. No boats approaching. No ship dared to cross. No one even dared to come to the Island.

    But for Podin whose mind can no longer be used to reason, whose mind only wants to get the treasure on the island, whose mind has ignored the mystical stories of the island of Idulahala, of course Podin was eager to prepare for the island that has given him two treasure chests. This time, of course, Podin wants to bring home again the vast number of treasure chests in the middle of the palace of the Island of Idols.

    "Not for long, sir?" podin asked the man who was running the ship.

    "It's still a long way off, sir .... It's at least another half an hour, sir .." said the boatman, who continued to run his ship.

    Indeed, Pulau Berhala is the place if from the tourist attraction Cipatujah Beach, it is very far away. It will take at least over an hour to reach it by motor boat. If you only use a boat that uses oars, you can get to that place all day. So the fishermen did not go to that place. Especially if you hear a scary mystical story, surely the ship owners will not want to cross in that place. Find danger.

    "Have you ever been to that island?" podin asked the shipbuilder.

    "Never, sir .... No fisherman dared to go there. No one dared to come to the island. Everything is scared. No one wants to cross the area around the island. In fact, I was actually scared myself, sir. To get you to that place, we hesitated .... But frankly, because I am interested in the money you will pay me, then I am willing, in order to get a large amount of rent" said the shipbuilder to Podin.

    "Indeed, why did no fisherman dare to go to that place? Though the water was calm, no big waves were approaching in the waters of the island?" podin asked the shipbuilder.

    "Quiet that's just the way it looks, sir .... Some time, later if it's rainy season, if it's hurricane season, the waves are very large, even the island as if it sank swallowed by a big wave coming from the South Sea." said the shipbuilder to Podin who certainly gave an idea of the sea he crossed.

    "But did no one dare come there? ask Podin who pretends not to know the situation of the Island of Berhala.

    "Well, Sir .... It is called Pulau Berhala .... That means there are many idols, many demons, many ghosts, sir .... No one dared to go there, sir .." said the boatman.

    "Oo, like that ..." said Podin who seemed to have just found out.

    "I wonder, why did you tell me to deliver, come there? What was? What do you want? Why do you want to go to PUlau Berhala? Are you not afraid? Have you never heard the story about the haunted Island of Berhala? asked the shipbuilder to Podin, who of course he was also curious because there were people who dared to rent a boat at a high price, just to come to the Island of Idols.

    "Yes .., I'm curious, I just want to know what's really on the island? Why are people afraid to come to the island? Why don't people dare to enter the island?" so answered Podin who pretended not to know what was inside. But if he wants to be honest, actually Podin is also afraid. Actually, Podin was also worried, because on the island there were indeed many idols, many demons, many demons, many strange events that of course he himself felt terrible to see. Even Podin had also witnessed for himself, in that place many bodies without heads, and many human heads were flinging without bodies.

    "Well ..., this father is a researcher, huh? ask the shipbuilder to Podin who seemed curious about the work of Podin.

    "Haha .... Yeah, like that. That guy's job is all right. Someone wants to know this, someone wants to know it, which of course I am also curious, what is really inside the creepy island? What exactly is there inside the island that is feared by the people, so that the people do not want to get close to the island?" so said Podin to the owner of the ship, which of course for Podin these are words that can provide a reason why come to the island.

    "Gee .... This father is great. You are brave .... That dad was a really cool guy. I salute you with Father. Wah .., this father's work is indeed very dangerous, this father's work requires high courage, this father's work is truly extraordinary. Whoa .... This is if I may know, Mr is Professor of history or Professor of antiquity?" ask the shipbuilder who seemed to want to know about the position of Podin. Even he had thought that this Podin must be a Professor from the college who will conduct research on a remote island that is not inhabited by humans at all. No one dared to go near the island.

    "Yes .., like that .... Anyway I was just curious, what exactly is inside the island, I want to uncover, find out, why the people around the island of Berhala are afraid to enter the island." so answered Podin who certainly gave words as if this Podin was indeed an expert, a Professor, a person assigned by the college in carrying out a mission to research the Island of Idols.

    "Frankly, sir .... I was amazed by the Father who wanted to try to see the contents of the island. I hope you will know what is really inside the Island of Berhala. So that we can speak the truth, not just be frightened by mystical stories." so said the shipbuilder who would also want to know what exactly is the contents inside the Island of Berhala.

    "Do you want to come to the island?" podin asked the shipbuilder.

    "Well, Sir .... If I don't dare, sir .... Mending the Father who entered the island. I'll just wait by the edge, sir .... I'm afraid, Mr .... Frankly, I did not dare to set foot on the island. Even this alone is actually I am also worried, Sir .... I was afraid to cross the waters to get close to the Island of Idols." so said the shipbuilder who actually he was also worried, he was also worried, he was worried, and he was certainly also afraid to go to the island which the public was forbidden to approach it.

    The ship continued to go to the island of Berhala. Pudin was happy. Podin was happy. In his imagination, Podin will bring many treasure chests that he will take from the palace of Pulau Berhala. And of course the big ship, will later be able to load many treasure chests. Even Podin was able to estimate how many crates he would drag. Especially when he remembered, that in the past, he had also dragged two crates that he had left on the beach of the island. Of course, later the crates will immediately he lifted back up, and he immediately put it into the ship. Moreover, seeing the shipbuilder fat, must be very strong to help lift the crates that will be dragged later.

    But when the ship was approaching to the island of Berhala, suddenly the boatman felt there was a strange on his ship. He sensed something was holding back his ship. He also felt someone dragging the ship. And a moment later, the motor engine attached to the back of his ship suddenly died. The engine cannot be run. The engine makes no sound. That machine really could not be used to run his ship. As a result, the ship stopped in the middle of the ocean.

    "Waduh .., sir, the ship's engine is dead" the ship's builder told his tenant.

    "Well, how can you? Maybe the gas ran out? Didn't you see the gasoline?" so said Podin who was certainly a little disappointed, because the ship stopped in the middle of the ocean.

    So the shipbuilder also checked, seeing the condition of the ship's engine. Sure look at the fuel.

    "No, Mr .... The gas is still full .... I just filled this." replied the boatman.

    But suddenly, from the edges of the ship, came the hands of men, who were holding the fringes of the ship. Not only one, but there were dozens of hands that were invisible to his body. Only the hands came out of the water, and stuck out on the body of the ship. It certainly scared the shipbuilder. Including the Podin.

    "Sir ...!! Mr ...!!! Look, Mr ...!!! There are hands holding our ship, sir ...!! I'm scared, Mr ...!!" the shipwrecker said very scared. The ship was really starting to get scared. Will this be a disaster for him who dares to violate the rules of society there? Will this be a punishment for him who dares to approach the Island of Idols?

    Not long after, the hands that had been holding the ship, suddenly lifted the body of the ship from the water. Then, the ship seemed to be thrown by dozens of hands that lifted it, until the ship floated, like flying in the air and fell into the middle of the Island of Idols.
