Jessi and Nich saw in the lower part of the statue there are three figures, with a lotus flower symbol on it. The two looked at each other while frowning, thinking about the meaning contained within. Is it just a number and a symbol? Or is it a clue to their search?
"What is this, Sweety?" ask Nicholas.
"Of course." Jessi shook her head slightly, thinking of the possible possibilities hidden within.
If it only looked like this and was discovered by someone else, perhaps they would think it was just an ordinary number. However, what makes Jessi surprised is the lotus flower symbol on it.
The lotus flower with the shape of a symbol like a necklace given by his mother. If it was also in this statue, could it be that everything was just a coincidence.
"The statue of Themis is a symbol of justice, according to the work of the father. But, the lotus flower that was engraved here?" Jessi paused her sentence to think. "Darling, why did you also carve a lotus flower here?"
She looked at her husband's face fixedly, as if asking for answers to the questions raging in her mind. However, the husband pulled out his hand, stepping out of the room. "We'll make sure we're at the other statue! That day I saw the statue of Themis in my father's study."
They stepped down again, towards David's study on the first floor carefully. Upon arriving in the room, the two men again spread their eyes. Tracing where the other statue of Themis is.
"Here!" Nicholas rediscovered a statue lying on the floor. Without wasting any time, he rubbed the stain on the object in the same way. Before long, a symbol and a number were again visible at the bottom.
"Sweety, this." They juxtaposed the two statues in different positions.
Both hold the height of a scale. However, the sword he carried was of different shapes. One looks taper and sharp pointing down, while the other is blunt at the end and towering up. Though it should be, the sword is double-edged the same, thus symbolizing justice in a judiciary.
The sword is sharp down, meaning the law is unfair. They hurt the lower middle class, while the blunt rises to the top, meant that the elites were granted leniency in a trial.
The bottom of the two statues is then juxtaposed, inscribed with six figures with the same two lotus flowers on it.
"We asked Uncle Alex." Jessi immediately pulled her husband's hand out of the house, carrying both statues in her hand.

On the other hand, a middle-aged man was also enjoying a holiday at his home. However, it is not relaxing, but rather unsettling what happened before. The source of two-edged income is already known to others. That certainly made him worried, so he asked his errand dog to investigate the matter.
"What did you get?" Jerry stared at the man in front of him. A man who has been raised like a obedient dog will obey all his commands.
"This, Sir." A picture of Jessi and Jackson while in the hospital was given to his master. Somehow the guy got it, but he had an even better performance than Johnny. Therefore, the man was retained next to Jerry, becoming his spy.
A smrik's smile was on his wrinkled face, looking at a man with the same face as someone. Jackson–the son of Detective Pannacotta is alive.
He squeezed the photo to shreds with sharp eyes and a horrible smile. "How dare Barron trick me!"
Yes, at that time he got word from Barron if the Pannacotta family had been all but wiped out. Fortunately, Jerry still keeps someone who can be used at a time like this.
Jerry looked at the man in front of him fixedly, the dog he had grown up with. However, against his parents. He was not a law or police worker like his father before him.
The man was Jackson's younger brother who was still in the stomach at the time. However, Jerry manages to educate her without understanding her origins. Not expecting if the baby in the womb will be very useful at a time like this.
"Find out everything about Brian's ex-wife!" Slowly Jerry took a photo in the drawer, writing a small message behind him. Then, put it in a chocolate envelope. "Give this to the man drawn it in secret!"
He received the envelope, bowed respectfully and left without saying a word. The flat face results from Jerry's upbringing makes him a human-shaped robot. Without a heart, feelings, expressions, even thoughts because his brain is set to obey all the commands of Jerry Morning a.
"You're playing around with the wrong people!" Jerry's gaze sharpened with patterned eyes due to the tempestuous emotions. The good day is over, the beginning of a new battle will begin.
Jerry then took the phone on the table to contact someone, until a while later, began to sound at the end of the connection.
"Yes, Sir." I heard the answer from a woman there.
"What is the condition of the woman?" ask Jerry.
"It's still the same as before, sir."
The man nodded. "Keep it as usual. Don't let him die before his time. He's an ace I'm gonna use."
"Good, Sir."
The phone connection is turned off. Evil laughter began to roll across the space. He did not expect that the woman would be useful for now.

Another Jerry, another Jessi. They go to Damien's apartment, after returning from visiting the old house of the Alexander family because Uncle Alex during his time in N Country only stayed at his brother's place.
Worried about the safety of his two nephews, the aged man chose to watch from a distance. His twin face is very similar to David can lure enemies to recognize him, while he himself does not know for sure who his brother's enemy is.
The couple visited Alex with two statues of Themis. They sat three in the living room of the apartment because Damien was still taking care of the ongoing project.
"Uncle Alex, does Uncle know what the arrangement of numbers means here?" Jessi held out the two statues to Alex.
Alex's two hands received the object, then squinted at the ranks of the numbers at the bottom of the statue. He was trying to remember all six numbers. Not the date of birth of one of Alexander's families. Not the date of the wedding.
Repeatedly the man flipped through the statue and thought for quite a long time.
"Ah, I remember. This is the date on which your father first worked as the Executor's Attorney." Alex is very fond of remembering that day because the time coincided with the time where his brother proposed to the idol–Samantha. It was also a day of heartbreak for himself.
His twin brother's mission is to eradicate the crimes of the officials. For this reason, he was dubbed the God of Justice for the community because he was able to reject the lure of bribes from state criminals.
"Did you carve it here just for the memories?" Jessi starts to bow her head, feeling her discovery might just end up deadlocked again.
However, the unexpected thing was that the uncle shook his head. "It's not just a memory."
"I mean, Uncle?" Jessi looked at her uncle with a twinkle of hope in her beautiful eyes.
"He always keeps important documents in the safe deposit box of a bank. I've been looking, but I don't know which bank your father used. You need a password to open it." Alex handed the statue to his nephew. "Maybe with this you can search and find a little clue to past events."
Safe Deposit Box (SDB) service is a treasure or securities storage box rental service specifically designed of steel materials and placed in a sturdy and fireproof treasury to maintain security of stored goods and provide a sense of security for its users.
Usually, items stored in SDBs are high-value items where the owner feels unsafe to store them at home.
Thirty years ago there was no data storage as it is today. Everything is still manual and done by humans, including documents and storage. So, those papers might still be somewhere. Waiting for the owner to come back home.
