Handsome Ghost (Medium in Revision)
"Lia, be the bait?"

Jerremy Mahanggara, a middle-aged man whose age is estimated to be around 45 years old. The owner of the Bumi Pertiwi High School foundation threw a newspaper on his office desk, containing news of Ratna's death.

The news was already widely spread to make Jerremy frustrated. Again he had to be faced with a strange situation, many parents of the students protested about the terror of death at this school, even making him lose many students and leave 30% of 99% there were many students who had previously attended school there.

Even some parents whose children become victims do not accept, but the case is always adrift, and always never complete. and the foundation always insists that they are not responsible for what happened because there is not enough evidence to blame the foundation for this case. The foundation has always insisted that the deaths of the students are beyond their responsibility. The parents of the victims were forced to surrender prematurely.

Jerremy's already faltering, he'll lose it all. He had even lost his mind how to make the image of this school clean as before the beginning of this foundation was established.

"How is this sir? we have lost many students and even the good image of this school has faded, "Pak Anjay spoke, but only a heavy sigh could be heard from Jerremy with one hand massaging his temples that felt dizzy.

"We can not cover many cases like this anymore, everything has been widespread" continued Mr. Anjay again after a few seconds paused.

Jerremy stood awake from his previous position, putting both hands into the pocket of the black material pants. He was seen walking back and forth trying to think hard what he should do.

"We have to find the culprit first, if it is still hanging around of course it will be a boomerang." said Jerremy finally.

"There's not much we can do, sir. Because there are no fingerprints left by the perpetrator anywhere. The deaths of Cyra, Larasati, and Ratna are also difficult to solve, and for Andra I think he is also among the victims who have been targeted, not because of slipping on top of the school building according to rumors circulating. And I feel like the killer's in this school environment."Mr. Anjay spoke confidently, while Jerremy immediately looked at him with a narrowed gaze.

"And I think the cold-blooded killer was ingenious, he was able to remove the CCTV traces. Which means, he has access to and out of this office."Jerremy added that Mr. Anjay agreed with his head nodding strongly.

"According to my colleague Nasuttion as a police officer who went undercover to check the school environment, he did not get any evidence, it seems the killer is very professional. And he knows everything." continued Mr. Anjay who made Jerremy sigh fretfully and hesitantly.

"You asked Nasuttion to stop investigating for some time, I still have other considerations. I also must not be rash, considering this cold-blooded killer is labeled a snapper class."command Jerremy and Pak Anjay just nodded in understanding.

Andra walked back and forth in Lia's room, after school Andra had persuaded Lia who sulked and finally Lia also, and forgave Andra's words while in the library.

"The only way we have to bait him is to catch him" Andra replied after a few minutes he dissolved in his own mind.

"Your magsud?"Lia immediately stood right in the hadaapan Andra.

"I'm sure you'll understand" Andra said and cleared her throat as she felt her throat instantly dry, finding Lia's expression looking at her suspiciously.

"Ah, I understand what your magsud is. So, I should be the bait?! oh, no. I don't want to risk that much to put my own life at risk, your thinking is very narrow, "Lia spoke sarcastically, refusing to go straight.

"But, maybe that's the only way to solve this case. Only you know the story, and Semmy wants you too" Andra said, clutching Lia's cheeks. Lia immediately clucked, throwing her face and her hands side-by-side in her chest. Signs that he is upset with Andra.

"Does your magsud Semmy want me?! Aish, even I'm not interested in her at all, you idiot."Lia glared sharply.

"Are you really trying to help me or not, Li? I'm so confused about you."Andra spoke again with a long sigh.

"But, not in the way I became a decoy!"continued Lia quickly while looking at Andra sharply.

"I'll make sure I'll always take care of you, Li. And you'll be fine, trust me."Andra immediately held onto both of Lia's shoulders with twinkling begging eyes, while Lia was still on the verge of being worried.

"So, what's your plan?"lia asked after a split second of silence.
