I sat on the prayer mat after reciting after the prayer dzuhur. My mind feels fucked. The luxurious dormitory that was supposed to make me feel comfortable studying, even made me feel uneasy. My hobby of reading comics with the detective genre even ushered my life into the genre.
But, is an alleged sixteen year old like me right?? If the murder that was done was using ice cubes that were thrown into the head and body? Or how? Because according to me, ice cubes that are items of evidence can disappear by themselves due to changes in shape. So he didn't have to bother to get rid of the evidence. But still, ice liquid can be made other evidence.
Especially when Kun said about snow gloves, as if justifying my speculation, or was saying that we had the same analysis. I don't know, I'm not a detective or a cop. And our guess is not necessarily true. We're just snot boys who are pretentious detective-detective.
I moved while folding the prayer mat, then took the remote to turn on the television. Not as entertainment, but so that this room is not too quiet.
"According to eyewitnesses, the victim and the perpetrator did not know each other and there was no alibi whatsoever for the murder case that claimed the high school students in the Nur Adn dormitory."
I who was not initially interested in the spectacle on television, immediately turned my head when I heard the name of my Dormitory called.
"Certainly, the dead victim was killed by being hit with a blunt object. From swelling, freezing and blueing of muscles in the body, hands and feet, objects used are cold and hard. Police found gloves splattered with blood in the dormitory cafeteria. The gloves are used to hold the ice before breaking. According to the police, it could be that the tool used is a solid and hard ice cube."
"From CCTV footage, the perpetrator was seen heading to the kitchen cafeteria, then climbed back up to the fourth floor. It's just, it can't be seen clearly, what kind of thing he's carrying from below."
I cringe at hearing it. It turns out that my mind was right. According to the presumption and results of CCTV footage, such is how to kill him. But why should they speculate for themselves, as if they didn't get the perpetrator? They caught him, right? Just ask directly, how to kill and what the motive behind it.
"In the meantime, the perpetrator who killed the student with the initials D has died after trying to escape out of the dormitory while his arrest was being carried out."
Wha what??
I was immediately stunned to hear it, even my blood flow felt frozen so in disbelief by the news I heard. The perpetrator I was after with Kun... Dead already??
"According to the police examination, the perpetrator died suddenly from a heart attack while trying to escape. He fell down after jumping over the high gate of the dormitory."
I frowned, sitting at the end of the mattress with a tense body while leaning forward. My legs are mutually widened, I use to put two elbows on the knee, then my fingers triangular shape and I put it in front of the mouth.
I thought hard after hearing it. If he says fall, I don't think so. I was right in front of his eyes and I saw how he jumped. So, that's not possible. But, if he does have a history of heart disease, it is possible. Because I don't know his medical history.
To my confusion, he fluttered and then showed me the card in his hand when he was sprawled. Just like the body of a woman whose head has been scattered, why he who has been sprawled, can still move as if he wants to show the card as well.
But I don't need to worry, surely the police will also discuss and explain about the two bodies that hold the card. They certainly would not have missed it as evidence left behind by the two people who died.
And if they need to, I'm willing to be a witness to the card I got, too. The same strange card that belonged to both of them.
"For the time being, the family and some relatives and friends of the victim and the perpetrator will be questioned. A quick glimpse of info. Thanks."
I flinched while glancing sharply at the tv, the news just got there? Why not talk about mysterious cards?? Hadn't there been two victims holding the object, it should not be ignored.
Tok tok!!
Seriously watching the news, my room door was suddenly knocked. I turned my head before acting, thinking about who was likely to come.
Tok tok tok tok!!
The door was knocked louder, along with the words "I'm from the police!" I flinched and immediately moved. Why did the police come to my room? What is there to do with me??
I went to the door and opened it immediately, when I opened it, I was surprised by the arrival of a person who was carrying two plastic packages of noodles in his hand.
"Agaaam!! I have noodles!! Let's cook in your room!!" his jolt while entering suddenly, gawked past me just like that. His face was bright and smiling until his eyes narrowed.
He who is still walking in the place. "You didn't say anything. Besides, why is your face so pale when you open the door, you're afraid you'll get caught by the police?"
I turned her head, making her body turn to face me. I pointed to the door and said, "Get out again, and entered while saying assalamualaikum. If not, don't go inside!"
He immediately whined, "Well.. I'm already in."
"Get out or paint your hair with yellow pilox."
He grimaced to hear her, "Yes yes! So chatty. I want to paint in yellow. Fuck up! neighbor's grass!" grin while walking towards the door.
"Why the neighbor's grass?" many confused.
"When I come, you're grass. Because tai, always on the grass." he said with a face full of pride.
"Step a tai." I said.
He stood at the door of my room with two hands holding Indomie, preparing to take a cue to say, "Assalamualaikum!!" he said while looking at me.
I folded my hands to my chest while returning his gaze. "Vaalaikumussalam. Login." I said.
Kun immediately entered and gawked like before. "Well, now let's cook noodles in the packaging. Like the coolies of yesterday." he asked, making me raise both eyebrows.
"So.. You want to eat instant noodles like brothers yesterday?" I just can't believe it.
"Yes, I want to try it. How does it feel? Is it plastic?"
I grimaced at him. I took two packs of noodles in his hand as he passed by this boy. "Here let me be the masakin." I said.
He grimaced, trailing me who was walking to the table, precisely towards the electric stove. "By the way our hostel news is already on television" he said in pleasantries.
I filled the pot with water and said, "Yes, I watched it. But, the news is less. They should have investigated the cards held by the victim and the perpetrator. Who knows, it could be evidence."
The atmosphere of the room was silent, and I did not hear Kun speak my words. I glanced at him, looking at his confused face.
"Card? Meanin?" tanyakanya.
I was silent too. He didn't see the woman's body, but didn't he see the grandmother giving the woman a card? And did he not see the perpetrator holding the card?
"Lu saw this morning, the fallen offender held a card in his hand?"
Again, Kun gave the same reaction. "Card? I saw nothing in both hands. What card do you mean?" ask again, with furrowed eyebrows.
I'm speechless. Obviously the victim was holding the card while floundering, it was striking in front of us. And I think Kun saw it. But why does he seem to not understand?
Or maybe he can't see the card? Then why can I? My gut feeling, so a little bad.
Seriate....
