Ghost Hunt: Panic in the Country
Vol. 0: I Lost | 15. Go home

Astan sighed after he finished reading the letter, but he turned his head when he heard the noise. Astan sharpened his hearing and looked for the source of the sound, until it was in front of the closet made of wood. Astan was silent for a while, listening to the noise of people in the closet. After being satisfied to hear, Astan opened the closet door quickly and found three figures standing. Astan looked at them alternately. Within seconds they disappeared without saying a single broken word. However, they came back when Astan asked for it. Astan sat on the bed, as well as those who stood in front of him and were reluctant to show their faces.

“What is the contents of this letter right?” Astan asked by showing the brown letter. For a while no one spoke, until the figure of a 16-year-old woman replied. It made the two male figures continue to grumble to the woman.

“So, you guys did a contract with him. Surely he was killed no,” said Astan.

“I think you're stupid,” chirps female figure.

“No, Brother. Rei wrote it here.” Astan again showed a letter that was only replied by the nod of the female figure.

“Here, Brother. Rei says ‘If suddenly there is news of suicide, don't believe!’ that's what he said,” said Astan.

After hearing that, the three of them stopped making a fuss themselves and stared fixedly at Astan. Astan who feels awkward from getting a gaze can only put on a smile. This made both male figures put on serious faces and full of questions. Astan again listened to their commotion until one of them walked a step. Staring with the face of Astan. A few seconds later, a faint smile was painted on his face.

“You have grown up, my name is Riano, I am 20 years old, and my strength is pisik.” Riano smiled very broadly by extending his right hand.

Without hesitation and a smile, Astan returned a hand from Riano and introduced himself. The other two are Emily and Hugo. They also do not forget, tell me everything. This includes what happened to Bena. After finishing Astan was silent for a while until the door of the room opened. Appears to Rui who is preparing to return to her residence. Astan drove Rui to the front of the apartment and walked back in, looking at the entire corner of the apartment that felt empty.

He rushed to clean himself, not how long Astan returned in a nightclothes. Sitting silently watching the invisible figures in front of him. They start a conversation about Rei and when they are done, Astan falls asleep until the sound of chicken cigarettes echo throughout the room, Astan searches for his smartphone. Instan quickly turns off the phone alarm and does the morning routine. Afterwards, Astan rushed to work. On the bus Astan just sat quietly along the road until a lot of invisible figures approached him. Astan who feels uncomfortable standing up from his seat to move. 

However, Astan undoed his intentions as everyone stared at him. He sat back in silence and ignored the figures surrounding him. Astan reached into the pocket of his right trousers and picked up a smart phone, looking through the Digital Newspaper, but the news homepage was filled with about his brother. Astan, who was upset by the news, turned off his phone and kept it. Not long after the bus stopped, Astan went out through the crowded streets. He had been in the office and was preparing for work, but all the rooms had looked clean.

As he headed towards the living room, Astan saw Endra lying on the sofa. He crouched down in front of Endra and woke her up slowly. Astan gave a small smile as Endra sat down rubbing his right eye. Astan sat down right next to Endra and started asking, “What are you doing cleaning all the offices?” ask Astan.

“Yes, I don't think you're coming. So, I'm asking permission to replace your job today. It's been through a deal and we'll take turns, until you get back to work. Why are you directly in for work?” answer Endra by asking a question back.

“Where did you know?” ask Endra.

“Kak. Rei, he told me everything in the letter made to me.” Astan answered by looking at the wall in front of him.

“Sorry, I lied to you. Rei also tried hard to protect you, me too. Our goal was for that, but Rei refused and wanted to protect you alone. And so, we recruited you. Rei didn't know that we were participating in that job fair,” Endra replied with a level explanation.

Astan who heard the explanation just nodded in understanding. Astan stood up from his seat, but before leaving he gave a few words to Endra and at once asked for permission to go home. Without thinking, Endra agreed and followed Astan who would take the backpack. Astan left the office and had been on the bus to return to the apartment. Arriving at the apartment, Astan headed for the room, changing into work clothes with t-shirts and long black pants. Not forgetting that Astan was also wearing the black jacket he got from Rei. The five of them were astonished by Astan who suddenly came home and changed his clothes. Cakara quickly threw the question to Astan and was answered quickly by him.

“I want to Banlau, you want to come?” ask Astan.

Glad they nodded their heads, Hugo also asked Astan to bring something that belonged to Rei. After Astan went to Rei's room to retrieve it and it turned out to be a sword that Rei used to work. Astan, who still does not know the intricacies of the work, asked to be explained. After listening to Riano's explanation, Astan nodded in understanding. Without waiting, they left the apartment. With a black backpack and a rectangular bag containing items. Including Rei's sword that would not be seen by ordinary people. But for those who have the ability of darkness and light. They can see energy like that is very easy.

Now that Astan was inside a medium-sized ocean liner, he was just sitting on a chair. While Cakara with the others was seeing the view of the sea and sky out there. Astan walked up to the pantry table which had a medium size, greeted and ordered some snacks. After getting what he wanted, Astan returned to his table and ate the small meal quietly. However, a woman's voice pierced Astan's hearing. Astan looked up and saw a long black haired woman standing in front of him.

The woman asked permission to sit in front of Astan and show him her ticket. Astan who understood, answered quickly and returned to focus with food at the table. None of them interact with each other. They just focus on each other and look very awkward. Not long ago Astan had consumed all the food he ordered. When he was about to stand up, the words of the woman made Astan undo his intentions and sit back.

“What do you mean?” ask Astan.

“In your bag there is a sword no, it is only visible to people like us. When you arrive at the port, you must register the item. If not, there will be a forced check.” The woman replied by looking at Astan's confused face.

“Are you not a member of an organization?” ask the woman back.

“What do you mean a kind of G-Hunt organization?” ask Astan and get a nod in response.
