EIGHT TARGETS
56. In Nisan Araka, Lu Tianfeng's Revenge Plan

“How does the Captain judge the child?”  Bianca asked, handing the captain a cup of coffee.

“Well, he's a good boy.  I think it's impossible that he was the perpetrator of that serial murder.”  The Captain replied, sipping warm coffee handed over by Bianca.

“Wah, whoa, whoa!  What is this Captain?!  You just met him today and your mind has changed?  So where did the Captain once say that a sense of subjectivity should not interfere with the investigation?!  Isn't it obviously strange that the victim clasped a photo of Kaiser at the end of his life?!” Dono, who heard the captain's reply, shouted furiously.

“But to me, rather than being angry, Araka looked sad at the end of her life while holding the photo.  It was not an expression that should have been addressed by the person showing the dying message.”  Bianca added with a sad expression on her face that seemed uninterested in serving Dono's sentiments to Kaiser as usual.

“Whatever it is, of course everything must be based on the results of the investigation.  It's important to keep an eye on the suspect Kaiser disclosed and it will be your duty, Bianca.” The Captain tried to end the subject by giving his instructions to Bianca.

“Good Captain!”  Bianca replied quickly on the orders of her captain.

The Captain then continued, “But we must not ignore that the perpetrator could have been an assassin, so we still must not ignore anyone who has a motive of vengeance to the victims.”

“There is also a possibility that the person Kaiser saw and the serial killer who killed Araka was a different person, isn't that so Captain?”  Bianca quickly cut off her captain's talk.

Before the Captain spoke, Mono responded to that.

“But the description given by Kaiser yesterday fits perfectly with the estimated traits of the serial killer based on his tracks in the CTF.  Most likely both are the same person.”

“Lantas if so, Kaiser is certainly very great can corner it in a fight.”  Bianca gave her response.

“Heh, he could have been a hit man sent by his family without knowing it.  Of course the hit man couldn't hurt the family of the person who paid him.”  Dono shared his comments coldly.

“It could be.  If so, the most suspicious person would be his uncle, Mr. Arkias, or his grandfather, Mr. Lucias.  Mr. Lucias and Bu Nana themselves are shrewd and sometimes cunning, but they are both very straight people so it is hard to imagine that they can get to hire a hit man.”  Unexpectedly, Bianca gave her support for Dono's cold comments.

“If I thought, there was a chance that the serial killer himself knew Kaiser and all this he did for Kaiser's sake.  If so, this all happened not because of the bullying case, but the anger of the perpetrator because of the victim who harassed Kaiser?”  Mono issued his opinion.

The three of them were jolted with Mono's opinion.  They tried to weigh this and also suspected it could happen considering Kaiser has a lot of fanatical followers without realizing it in the underworld.  If so, it could get more complicated.

They had all this time only been able to hear the rumors, but clearly they existed.  At least they know Fan’s Club Kaiser under the leadership of Ratih.  There were also rumors of the existence of another more extreme Fan’s Club, but they kept their secrecy so much that both the names of the members and their numbers were unknown.

This rumor is based on the number of people who deal with Kaiser always end up having bad luck for no reason.  Therefore, many high-ranking rulers preferred to avoid dealing with the boy and dubbed him as ‘the untouchable poisonous prince’.

“For now, we should focus on protecting potential victims.  Oh yes, Mono, how about the development of Jingmi search?”  The Captain then changed the course of the discussion.

“No development Kap.  Hong Kong does not want to cooperate.”  Mono replied with a disappointed look.

“It's quite troublesome.  Plus other potential victims no one wants to cooperate.  Forced we can only watch them from afar.”  Said the Captain in a lethargic manner.

The captain continued to give instructions.

“Do supervision especially for Dirga Isnandar and Tirta Wahyunusa who often leave the house and are also suspected as potential suspects.  I leave this to you Mono to work with another team.

For another potential suspect, Bianca, make sure to do enough checking and surveillance for now.  Do not make complaints to the police.  Work with the other team.

For Silva and Riandra, keep sculpting at their homes.  Let them know immediately that they're out of the house.  Dono, I'm handing this to you.  Work well with the other team and leave Kaiser's problem to the boy.

For Jingmi's matter, I will try to talk about it with the above-mentioned parties and for Kaiser's and his family's matter, no one make any moves before there is an order from me.  Understand?”

“Ready Captain.”  The three of them answered simultaneously on the orders of the captain.

[All of the following dialogues are in Chinese.]

“Mr Tianfeng, what will you do next for Mrs Melisa?”  Ask the faithful aide to his master.

“Without Araka, there is no point in maintaining it.”  Answer the Master coldly.

“So you will throw it away?”

“Of course.  There is no point in maintaining benalu.”

“Betul also, Sir.  So, how will you treat the child of Shinomiya's subordinate family?”

“Kaiser Dewantara yes.  Honestly, I don't really care about him.  I also doubt that what is rumored on the internet today is true.  But, I certainly can't let it go free for my good name in the mafia world.”

“So, what will you do?  There are rumors that Kaiser has a very dangerous back-up secret.  Many who dealt with her ended up ill-fated so she was nicknamed ‘the untouchable poisonous prince’ in the underworld.”

“If it is true that he did this to Araka, or the mysterious person who supported her in secret, she or they must be at least an F level cultivator.  I will hire 2 E level cultivators to execute that kid.”

“Do you need to get to as fast as Sir?  Wasn't the cost incurred to hire 2 high-class cultivators extremely expensive.  What about our company budget?”

“It's worth it if the child can be removed so that no one else will dare to go against the Lu family in the underworld of this country.  Of course the bigger profit will flow by itself.”  Said Lu Tianfeng with a savage sting on his face.

“Lantas how about the Shinomiya Family?”

“They will not dare to act without proof.  We'll kill the boy in secret.”

“Good idea, Mr.”

The adjutant also gave praise for the brilliant idea of his master.  However, suddenly Lu Shou came and interrupted them.

“Dad, Dad can't do that.  If you care about Araka, then stop the evil intentions of that father.  Araka herself told me before her death not to touch Kaiser.  To him, Kaiser must have been a precious friend figure.  Otherwise, there was no way Araka would say such a thing.  If Dad hurts Kaiser, this is the same as Daddy hurting Araka who is in nature there.”

“Paaak!”

But what awaited Lu Shou was a loud slap from his father.

“A useless child like you should just shut up!  Guards, quickly drag that useless child away from here!”  Shouted Lu Tianfeng furiously.

“Dad!”  Said Lu Shou with a clear face to his father, but the Father did not touch him at all.

Two of the few bodyguards escorting Lu Tianfeng dragged Lu Shou away from his master.  Lu Shou was clamoring and clamoring, but he remained unmoved.

[This time the chat is back in Indonesian.]

Away from the crowd of visitors to Araka's funeral, a young man appeared to be calling someone.

“As you might expect, he plans to attack Young Master Kaiser.”

Fahrul Prabuwija, Kaiser's friend in the same class as Junior High, and also in the same school as Kaiser currently in High School despite the different classes, araka's former subordinate who now somehow supports Kaiser in the underworld.
