EIGHT TARGETS
144. Kaiser's Assassination Plan by the Leeches of the House of Devantara


That evening, Kaiser and Zion visit the hospital room, where Dios is being treated.  In Kaiser's hands, there was a document he held tightly.


“Kaiser, I'll be waiting for you outside.  You're here for a minute.  Looks like, you still need time to let go of your longing with Dios.”  Zion said to Kaiser while patting the fragile shoulder.


However, Kaiser said nothing.  He just nodded.


With Zion out in the room, Kaiser and Dios lie in a coma.


“Dios, why lately, I always feel like you and you are me.  What's wrong with my memory?”  Lirih Kaiser while tightly grasping Dios' hand with his other hand that did not hold the document.


“I have to confirm this truth.”  Kaiser said as he opened the map of documents that Zion had previously submitted to him.


DNA matching results of Zion and Iswandi Perdana.  At least that is what it says in the document.  But actually, it was Kaiser's DNA match test against his mother, Nana.


Kaiser slowly and expectantly opened the contents of the document.  And apparently, the result is positive.  Kaiser is undoubtedly the biological child of Bu Nana.  A look of relief behind Kaiser's facial expression.

At night, it was still the same day.  It seems to gather some young men and women who are descendants of the Dewantara family.  The Dewantara family was originally a family of assistant doctors from the Dutch colonial era.  The ancestors of the Dewantara family were in charge of looking for herbs in the mountains needed by Dutch doctors who settled in Dutch hospitals in Indonesia.


Long story short, after the independence, the ancestors of the Dewantara family inherited medical knowledge from the Dutch doctors.  Ducias Dewantara was the fourth of four children.  His father was also a doctor, but he did not inherit his father's talents and instead entered the department of international relations at the University of Indonesia.


Ducias Dewantara has 3 older brothers.  Her first sister, Syifani Dewantara, is a woman who married a Turkish businessman and went with her husband to her husband's home country.  After the death of his brother about 20 years ago, who left behind two children, Lucias has rarely been in contact with his brother's family in Turkey.


His second brother, Lukman Dewantara, is a doctor who has a high spirit of adventure.  But unfortunately, he died earlier than Syifani at the age of 28 years with the status of still single in the unrest in Congo in 1968.


As for his third brother, Malik Dewantara, is a high euphoric soul and is famous for being ignorant and drunk.  However, he was somewhat successful in the field of business compared to Ducias Dewantara.  But it only lasted until the 1998 monetary crisis caused by the rainbow disaster.  All his companies collapsed and he eventually went bankrupt.


But after bankruptcy, he turned into a good person and helped his sister's company, Ducias Dewantara, to success as it is today.  But Malik also 17 years ago has breathed his last by leaving a wife and 4 children, namely Karna (52 years), Arta (50 years), Dufan (48 years), and his wife, and the Scriptures (45 years).


However, it is the grandchildren of Malik who are now gathered to plan the assassination of Kaiser Dewantara, the sole heir of the Dewantara Group.


“Welcome, my beloved brothers and my cousins filled with brilliant talent.”  Said one of them who looked the oldest.  Thoriq (31 years old), the eldest son of Karna.


“So, why did Brother call us all here?  Which brother might call here to just mince words like that right?”  This time it is Lad (26 years old), Karna's youngest child.


“Hahahaha.  That is the nature of Thoriq.  But by the way Lad, where is Lydia?  I haven't seen him.”  He was Geri (30 years old), Karna's second child.


“Entahlah.  Didn't Sis Thoriq also call him?”  Lad passed Geri's question to his older brother, Thoriq.


“Oh, Lydia can't attend today's sick issue.  But take it easy, it will not disturb our schedule all today.”  Reply Thoriq.


The atmosphere was silent at once.  The eyes of the eight in the room were on Thoriq, who invited them all.


“I invite all of you today, none other than to talk about the future of our beloved Dewantara family.  As we know, our uncle, Arkias Dewantara is aging and can no longer be the peak of the backbone of the Dewantara Group.  Inevitably, he should be replaced immediately by someone else.”


Thoriq smiled widely.


“Yes, that's right.  He has humiliated our family by engaging in a criminal act.”  It was Idli (25 years old), Dufan's first child, who first welcomed Thoriq's provocation.


“He caused our company's stock price to plummet due to black joker's murder threat on him that.  Meanwhile, there was no sign that he would do anything about it.  He only relied on his uncle, Uncle Arkias alone to deal with it.  That's not a good businessman mentality.”  Another response came from Murad (24 years old), the first son of Aksara.


“That's why, I thought.  Wouldn't he, after all, be killed by a black joker serial killer?  So rather than waiting for it to happen that can have an impact on the decline in the value of company shares, then let's just speed up the process.  We kill Kaiser Dewantara and we throw all his guilt at the serial killer.  After that, we re-stabilize the company with our ability.”


“But Brother Thoriq, how?  Can-can be wrong to act, we can be involved in criminal acts.”  Lad also questioned Thoriq's plan.


“I agree anyway, but I don't want to get involved because I'm afraid of the risk.”  Syilfi (23 years old), Dufan's second child also spoke up.


“Same.  I also agree with Syilfi.”  The same thing, also apparently thought by Duan (20 years old), Dufan's third child.


“Take it easy.  Everything will be safe.  I have requested the cooperation request to the Peng family from China, as well as the Takeuchi and Minamizawa families from Japan who are the rulers of the underworld in West Java.  All we need to do, is to raise money to pay for their services. That's why I gathered you here..”.


“Paaak!”  Unfinished Thoriq spoke, Garnia (27 years old), Arta's first child, suddenly broke down the table.


“You're all crazy, right?  For the sake of treasure, you will take the life of your own cousin!  Adlan, let's go home!  We can't hang out with these scum for long.”


Saying this, Garnia leaves with her younger brother Adlan and leaves with him.  However, before leaving the door of the room, he once again spoke.


“When our grandfather went bankrupt, it was Grandpa Lucias who gave his helping hand to our grandfather so that Grandpa could rise again.  Thanks to that, both his children, and us, his grandchildren, can still live in the midst of wealth.  If it wasn't for Grandpa Ducias, all of us who were here would have been vagabonds.  Please keep that in mind before you all make a decision.”


Thus, Garnia and Adlan left the room, leaving 7 people in the room.


“I also backed.”


“I also.”


“It seems, the risk is too great than fortunately.  I'm also backing down.”


Garnia and Adlan's move, followed by Syilfi, Duan, and Murad, left 4 people in the room.


“It seems, only the four of us are left in the room.  Then, can I draw a conclusion that everyone in this room agrees with my plan?”  Thoriq seemed to be losing his composure.


“Lantas, what about the five of them who came out just now?  They could have leaked our plan to the management of the company.”  Lad raised his concerns.


“Or could one of them take advantage of this opportunity to use us to eliminate Kaiser, then ensnare us with criminal acts as his killer, then advance as heroes by revealing our plans.  Murad is most adept at doing just that.”  Idli then commented.


“You guys just calm down.  Surely the five of them had lost their lives outside.  I have ordered the guards outside to kill anyone who comes out of this room without my permission.”  Thoriq replied, giving a terrible evil look.


However, it was precisely what happened on the outside, opposite to the shadow of Thoriq.  The Black Joker suddenly appeared and slaughtered and killed all the Thoriq guards outside who gave Garnia, Adlan, Syilfi, Duan, and Murad the opportunity to escape from the place.


And with a slow step in the sound of the shoes lying down, the Black Joker entered the room where the remaining four of them were.
