Ghost Hunt: Panic in the Country
Vol. 0: I Lost | 25. Rounded Determination

Now the clock shows at 05:00 am, but Rui is still awake by staying seated to the left of Astan's bed. Looking at the face of Astan who was very calm in his sleep. Not long after, the door of the room opened and revealed Endra. He had a plastic bag in his right hand. Endra gave me the plastic bag.

“Go home, your family must be waiting. It's food for them, rest. Let me take care of him,” said Endra. After Rui's departure, Endra just sat by playing his smartphone.

Read a comic that has an action genre. Already several times Endra changed the reading comic, until the dawn had greeted. Endra turned off his phone and let the nurse check on Astan. When the nurse examined him. Slowly Astan opened his eyelids. Endra who saw her, immediately called Rui Akarina. After a few minutes, Rui arrived together with her little family. Looking at Astan who was sitting by looking at the window curtain. His eyes looked empty and uninspired.

Astan could hear, but he did not want to retaliate at all. Now Astan again remembered the words of Sakhasi when he found himself. ‘Now, you know how big of a difference you are with them. Many are waiting for you, one more thing. If you want to repay them, increase your strength again. Don't run.’ That was the word that now pierced his mind. Makes Astan think hard for what to do until he hears Rui's voice. Who started sobbing back when he saw the state of Astan.

"Don't cry, I'm fine." Astan decided to make a sound, making Rui smile with tears still flowing.

They spoke until the sun was over their heads. Astan asks to visit Rei Akarina's funeral. Of course Rui quickly agreed to it, but they would go there after Astan had gotten better. Hearing this, Astan agreed and he spent several days resting. Three weeks after Astan rested completely and his condition has been very good. Including his mental self. Now Astan is sitting in the hospital corridor chair, waiting for Rui to finish the Administration. As Astan was looking around, he accidentally caught the familiar back of him. However, Astan dispels those thoughts when Rui is done with his affairs.

Afterwards, they left and headed for Rui's residence which was in District A-1. A luxurious district and a place for the elite. No need to take long from the hospital where Astan was treated. Arriving, Astan looked at the room to be occupied. Instant check the wardrobe, table, bookshelf, even the gaming table.

"They brought all my things" Astan said. Afterwards, Astan came out of the room. Approaching Rui who was preparing lunch. Astan asked about Rei's stuff. After hearing the reply, he immediately headed for the warehouse that was on the lower floor.

Inside the warehouse, Astan found a rectangular box and as he opened it. All the items that Rei used to work as a ghost hunter, were neatly stored away. Astan smiled and brought the stuff. Keep it right under the bed. Rui's voice called out to him, making Astan immediately reply and descend towards the dining room. They had lunch in silence, until it was all over. Rui just let out a voice, saying some things to Astan. Give him a choice, stay here and quit as a G-Hunt member or vice versa.

"I haven't decided, after the funeral. I will give my decision" said Astan walking away from the dining room and preparing himself.

After everything was ready, they immediately went towards Rei's burial place. There, Astan just silently stared alone. Meanwhile, Rui with her small family was waiting at the entrance.

"I've chosen this path, so, I have to keep going. Sis. Rui also gave me a choice, but I stayed on my path. What Brother. Rei is also one thought with me?" ask Astan who smiled a little. After he finished speaking all his heart and mind, Astan walked out of the cemetery.

Upon arriving, Astan simply shut himself in the bedroom. Sitting in front of a computer that was on, Astan just stared at him silently. A few minutes later, Astan opened a software for typing. Astan sighed softly and started typing quickly. Instant click the enter button and exit the white paper with black ink on it. Immediately pick it up, fold it neatly and put it in a small white envelope. Afterwards, Astan wore all-black clothes. Astan left the district with a bag containing his belongings.

Strugglingly, Astan has been in a luxury taxi. Passing through the crowded night streets, even though the clock has been above 10:00 p.m. Now that Astan had been in District A-5, he was looking for a cheap inn and rested. Five hours later, Astan reopened his eyes. Get out of the district, before the brother looks for him. After passing through many bus stops, Astan has been in District C-4, where Endra lives. As Astan walks out of the bus, he sees Endra waiting for him. They immediately left the bus stop and headed for the apartment where Endra lived. When they arrived at the apartment, Astan just sat quietly by staring at the glass filled with water.

"Drink, don't just look at it that way." Endra broke the silence in their midst.

"I'm sorry, I'm thinking a lot" said Astan, sipping the water.

"I know, it's hard for you. But, this is life. Everyone has their own difficulties" Endra said. They chatted so many things that the sun had risen brightly.

Now they are in the office. Astan was in his superior room. Sitting quietly listening to Rui's babbling who was already very pity.

"This is my choice. I'll take care of it myself, brother. Rui don't have to worry and don't call me. Maybe it will endanger Brother and family" Astan said with his head lowered.

"Say that again face-to-face!" rui said with emphasis, he just wanted to make sure of Astan's decision. Although he wished that Astan would stay with him.

Astan happily followed what Rui said. Staring at Rui's eyes and face, again said a few words. After seeing Astan's earnestness, Rui understood and left the lawyer's office. After the incident, Astan focused only on himself. Practice improving with the teacher, working hard. Lastly, try not to contact your brother. Although Rui always took the time to visit him while working. It was impossible for Rui to let go of her only family.
