In the next day.
At 12:00 p.m.
Central Police Station.
In accordance with the message that Prawira sent to him via mobile phone. Berlin came to the Central Police Station to meet Prawira. Actually he came not alone, because there are friends who come. But Berlin ordered them all to monitor from outside and around the police station. Berlin also could not take Nadia with him.
When we arrived at the police station. Berlin was welcomed by several police officers on guard, with some even appearing to salute him. Of course that respectful attitude confused Berlin.
"Please enter the lobby, Mr. Prawira is waiting for you" said one of the police officers standing right in front of the entrance. The police officer also opened the glass door for Berlin.
"Thank you" said Berlin, glancing suspiciously and then walking into the lobby of the police station.
While in the lobby, Prawira immediately welcomed his arrival and walked up to him. Berlin could not see Garwig in the lobby of the police station. He only saw Prawira who was waiting for him.
"Not with Nadia?" cetus Prawira after shaking hands with Berlin.
"Can't, he has to rest after having surgery yesterday" Berlin replied.
"You really came alone?" prawira asked, raising one eyebrow not sure if Berlin had come alone.
"No, it's just that I told them to monitor from a distance, and also they don't want to look too flashy" Berlin replied.
Prawira could directly understand what the last words Berlin meant. He immediately took Berlin to walk towards the back steps, and headed to the roof or helicopter runway of the police station.
As they climb one by one ladder. Prawira can feel and see the cold attitude of Berlin that has always been seen from the past. His expression also seemed so flat.
"Calm down, I didn't forget the payment from the contract I made with you guys" Prawira glanced at Berlin who was walking beside her.
The eyes of Berlin are really sharp, it is sharp as usual and has its own charm.
"Your cold and silent behavior is like that, it is not wrong if there were enough girls who were lured to you" Prawira joked.
"Whisper! They all really make me uncomfortable" said Berlin so uncomfortable when remembering himself as a teenager.
"Haha ..!" Prawira chuckled at such a response, "women are like that, Berlin. On average, they are attracted to mysterious men. And I think .. That's also one of the reasons why Nadia is so interested in you" he said.
.
"Other than that, I noticed. Now you've changed better, huh?" he continued when he reached the roof and returned to glance at a boy beside him, Berlin, which had once been his responsibility
But Berlin ignored Prawira's last words, and continued to walk toward Garwig who was waiting to lean on the helicopter runway barrier.
...
Garwig appears to be carrying an appendix of notes in her hand, "how are you, Berlin?" answer to Berlin.
"Okay" replied Berlin.
"According to our previous agreement, I will directly fulfill your payment" Garwig said.
.
"And your payment is here" he continued, giving the attachment he had previously brought to Berlin.
Berlin received the attachment of the note. He did not really understand what the contents of the appendix were now changing hands to him.
But after opening and reading and knowing the contents. The payment given is certainly very satisfied Berlin, and he believes his friends will also be very satisfied.
"Thank you very much" said Berlin shortly after learning all the contents of the appendix. It looks like Berlin is very happy and relieved after getting paid according to his wishes.
The contents of the annex of the note containing the payment to be received by Berlin, is a record of bleaching or cleaning the good name of all bad records about crime. All the names of his friends including himself are on the record, which means that now Berlin and his friends are free from any criminal record they have ever done.
Besides about that good name cleaning. Berlin also gets a nominal amount of money for which it pays. Nominal received is quite fantastic, even it will be quite enough if used to buy more than 14 units of a simple house.
"The money recorded there has been sent through your account, Berlin," Prawira said.
"You know my account?!" Berlin was surprised, because he never told Prawira about it.
"Of course, all the data about you is in my hands, besides I have been your responsibility since childhood," replied Prawira a little explanation so as not to misunderstand.
"Berlin, may I ask you something?" garwig Sela.
"Sure, I will answer it depending on the question" Berlin turned his head and looked seriously at Garwig, as if he was ready to talk about what Garwig was going to talk about.
"Do you know anything about the Clone Nostra group?" ask Garwig.
Berlin was stunned to hear the question. "Why are you asking?"
Garwig explained briefly why he asked Berlin this question. He also explained his assumption about the disappearance of Nicolaus from the scene associated with the Clone Nostra group.
After hearing that brief explanation, Berlin understood and replied according to his capacity.
"Clone Nostra is a fairly large criminal group, even bigger than Mafioso. They were synonymous with white, whether from clothes or uniforms, vehicles, and even until the weaponry they had was identical to the silver color whitish."
"Clone Nostra also belongs to a criminal group that is quite sadistic, cunning, and cruel. In fact they can be more sadistic and cruel than what I did when I took out one of the perpetrators who was caught at Shandy Shell Police Station yesterday in the chaos."
Hearing Berlin's explanation is enough to let Garwig know who she and the police might face.
"Do you know about the entry and exit of people from them through the border of the Southeast sea?" asked Garwig again trying to dig deeper into the information about Clone Nostra.
Garwig finds out that Berlin doesn't seem to be so eager to answer his last question too far. Hatred and resentment were especially evident when Berlin gave that answer. Could he know a lot about that? And what did he know that made him so upset?
"Well, thank you, Berlin." Garwig quits his questions.
...
"Other than that, I want to talk to you about regular work" Garwig said later after questioning Berlin about many things.
"Fixed work?" berlin's murmur twitched his forehead and was confused by his intent.
"I'd like to offer a permanent job for you, or rather for Ashgard ...!" garwig said directly at the core of the no-nonsense talk.
.
"Of course this is another job that you usually do for me, because this job will work directly with the police," he continued.
Berlin glanced sharply after hearing what Garwig had said to him. A job for Ashgard? That question had appeared in Berlin's head. But he can immediately understand the intent of Garwig.
"I see the potential in your group" Garwig said.
"So you want to recruit Ashgard for the police force?" berlin's chirps twitched his forehead trying to guess Garwig's mind.
Garwig is stunned when Berlin may have managed to guess what he was thinking. "Yes, that's how it is" he said.
.
"I don't want you guys constantly having to be in that dark world of crime, and I don't want to keep seeing you get involved in criminal cases either. But all those decisions I give back to you, Berlin," he continued.
It is true what Garwig said. Berlin lived his life for about five years in that dark world. Ever since he was 17, Berlin has had to be in that dark world of crime. Even then it may only be a teenager who is brave or maybe even desperate to plunge in the world.
Berlin also repeatedly had to be involved in cases of criminality, or maybe even he made some cases deliberately. Garwig and Prawira have been monitoring and looking at all of that, even as the two of them have continued to monitor since Berlin was deliberately kept away from the Gates family.
The Ashgard group that Berlin founded, is the only criminal group whose members have a fairly young age.
"Berlin, if you love Nadia, I want you to think about this!" prawira said he had given Berlin an attachment to a contract of employment.
.
"Honestly, I can't if I have to constantly watch you get involved in criminal cases" he continued.
"It's true that we're both the ones who got you involved in that dark world. So we want to make amends for our offering to you, Berlin." Garwig said it in a tone filled with regret.
"Well, I'll think about it" Berlin received and looked at the contract paper Prawira had given him.
.
"But I still have to talk to my friends, because I can't make decisions without hearing their opinions" he continued.
"You are a good leader" Garwig said, embracing Berlin and smiling at him.
"Whatever your answer is, I'll appreciate it. But I still hope that you will accept it" muttered Prawira, looking hopeful for Berlin's answer.
"Oh yeah, because I can't talk to Nadia here. Will I be able to come see him there in the afternoon?" cetus Garwig to Berlin.
"of course! Maybe Nadia will be happy" replied Berlin.

After finishing with all his affairs at the Central Police Station, and at the same time talking more with Garwig and Prawira. Berlin is leaving soon and wants to go back to the hospital. He walked to his white sedan parked in the police station parking lot.
"Boss, is it over?" cetus Asep asked over the radio that Berlin left in his car.
"It was, and I got the pay. Time to get back to our place!" answer Berlin.
Before Berlin returned to the hospital. He first returned to his private workshop with his friends. There he plans to directly share the proceeds from the payment he receives.
...
During the trip to his personal workshop. Berlin is still thinking about the permanent job offered by Garwig for his group. Berlin himself thought that the choice to accept the job was the best, and there was no harm. He also thought maybe Nadia would be happy to hear it if she accepted the job.
Drrt ... Drrt ...!
Suddenly his phone vibrated which signified an incoming message.
"If you're still confused about the job, then if you don't mind I'll explain it next time we meet." The message came directly from Garwig.
Berlin replied to the message by typing, "can we meet tomorrow to talk about this?"
...
Moments later, Berlin finally arrived at his private workshop and his group. There Berlin immediately informed and shared about the payments he received for his group equally and fairly.
Not forgetting, and at that moment. Berlin also discussed the offer of a permanent employment contract with the police to his friends.

Seriate.
