DEATH WARRANT
SECOND NOVEL

''His first work!'' shock Riko.

''So, the five mystery novels mentioned in the Anggita video are true?'' sahut. The reaction of the two of us was so shocked to hear a fact that we did not expect.

Nanda nodded. ''We have secured the five novels, ''' Nanda held up the novel of the Queen right in front of her face. ''Did you ask if your case is related to Amelia? Answer yes. The five novels he wrote were like sequels to the first story....'' Nanda cut out his sentence. ''This book is not the original book, it tells the story of a couple who died tragically! Unlike the other books, this book is published and marketed in general. I didn't know if they were reprinting the book or not. This book has been published for a very long time.''

I picked up the book he had just put down. Even if I had held it before, I again noticed the plain cover without a picture. ''The author's name doesn't exist? How can this book be published!''

''I've found out who sent the manuscript to the publisher, Erlangga, a student. The editor said Erlangga did not want his name written there, there is no harm while the original data of the author is on them,'' answer Nanda.

''Is he still alive?'' tanyaku carefully.

''Erlangga? Of course he killed her, Erlangga was found dead by suicide after this book was published a month.''

''I thought he must have killed her, so what does that have to do with me?''

''The main character in the book you hold is the younger sister of the mother of the parlour.... Kirana!''

My eyes suddenly heard it. How could he know that far. ''Nayla, she told you?''

Nayla nodded then told me. ''Long before this book was given by Amelia's sister, Kirana's mother had told her of her sister's tragic death. And when I read the book, the story is almost the same just the name of the character and the place is different.'' Nayla took a breath. ''I will tell you a little about the contents of the book, Bu Kirana's sister named Hendra was rejected by Indri who eventually became a partner in the story. However, because his parents did not like him pairing with Hendra. Hendra who knew it decided to go to the shaman to lure him, he felt his parents would bless them if Indri was crazy about him. As you already know, the shaman requested that Hendra give both of them blood to perform the ritual he requested, mentioned in the book... Sipakasih, Nayla stopped her story. ''In essence, both Indri parents still reject their relationship, even though Indri has almost gone crazy because of the curse! Indri who had already fallen in love decided to commit suicide if his parents still insisted on refusing. Hendra who did not want that to happen asked the shaman to cancel the Sipakasih ritual. He had accepted their love destiny would not be united, the shaman asked that Hendra burn the paper planted in the yard of Indri's house.... I forgot, Nayla suddenly smiled. ''When the ritual was first performed Hendra was asked to plant a note written by a shaman in the yard of the house of Indri. To eliminate Sipakasih, maxdku so that Indri's heart is not bound anymore... The shaman asked Hendra to burn him! But unfortunately, when Hendra went there, Indri was found hanged himself... What ending? Hendra also hanged himself.... It's over!'' Nanda smiled at Nayla's explanation. While me and Riko are still dumbfounded. ''Sekian,'' closed Nayla.

''How? Did you find the answer?'' ask Nanda.

I nodded slowly. I finally understood why the night Jara died there was a fire in front of the old house.

''So, undo the curse by burning it?'' many ensure.

''Yes, we continue the second book, when Amelia first left home to meet the invitation of her agency, Amelia hit the woman in the middle of the road. The woman is the main character of the second book. I've handed the book to the superior, Nanda holds her chin. She seemed to know I was going to ask her the book she meant. ''I don't really remember the story, which obviously was just a connector for the third book.... Amelia Earhart!''

''Was the woman killed by Amelia?''

''No, his death from going to Tugu Tiga hospital, in the book was written he died from the stress of losing a chess match. But, actually in his book it says he drank a deadly poison. The doctor who handled it was unable to detect the poison. That's all! That is not what matters.Every victim who died because of being recorded will certainly appear strange writings on his body. That's what distinguishes between sheet records and books. I'm sure you already know!''

''Yes, when I met Vishnu's personal assistant, he said like that, are Hendra and Indri the same?''

''Should have. But I haven't confirmed it....''

''Tu-tungu means that Jara is also the victim of the curse of the book!'' I cut the explanation.

''Yes, as you saw that night! It's full of strange writings, right? I think it's the effect of the ritual he's doing! And that's the reason Amelia Earhart's body burned.

''What's he hiding that for?'' Riko asked sure.

''Come on, to hide the facts maybe... Or he has a plan after who knows, I mean when the police know there's a female victim in that hospital. I'm sure he's aware that sooner or later the police will check on the woman Amelia hit, I think he's trying to hide that he can curse someone using a book.''

''That is to say, until we meet he does not know that you actually already know that he is capable of cursing with books?''

''You mean he's not there?''

''Yes, he just wanted to ascertain whether the police already knew the curse other than the record or not... He felt like there was something the police were hiding from you... Therefore he offended Amelia's book!''

''Doesn't that endanger him!''

''Sometimes you have to dangle your legs to make sure of the shark, '' Nanda replied. ''He's not that stupid, Misya. if if the police already know in fact he is able to control someone without a record. Sure, he'll change his next plan. I believe it was just a trick, following his wishes. I told you not to go look for him in Bali. You know why?''

''To convince him that the police did not know about the book!''

''Yes, more precisely to buy time, he wants to convey I am currently in Bali.

Knowing that, will the police be silent? The police should have been looking for traces there. I who from the beginning was sure it was just a trick would not go looking for him there.''

''I don't really understand what you mean... How can you consider it a trick?''

''Didn't I tell you the trick in manipulating, thrust out a little fact to make it real! He didn't give you the book. He only told Amelia the location as if from a book! That'sallthatis. Try to re-analyze your meeting with him!''

''I got the book from the hotel receptionist then read it...''

''Who sent the book?'' sela Nanda in the middle of my explanation.

''He said from an old friend of mine. However, it turned out that the receptionist of the hotel was Jara!'' I waited quietly for his response.

''Forward!''

''Knowing the contents of the book, I immediately looked for Jara, because I was sure the friend that the receptionist meant was Jara. At that time I did not think Jara was the receptionist of that hotel! I mean, he must have followed me. While looking for it. I rested at the cafe where I met even though I did not see it...''

''Try directly on the odd part!''

''You mean, why did he take the book back?''

''No, when at the cafe the employees did not come near, right?''

''Yes, Jara said because she had already cursed the people in the cafe!''

''Besides, there is a family sitting in front of you?''

''Yes.''

''Then you wrote some of Amelia Earhart's book stories before she took back the book?''

''Yes, what's wrong? Where's weirdness?''

''You haven't noticed the trick yet?''
