Murder In The Old Castle
214.Tracking
After coming out of the toilet, Niken took a moment to look at the large mirror that was installed above the sink. He observed her reflection, and silently admired her own beauty. If only there were no phone calls from Anita, of course he still reflected in his self-reliance. However, because Anita had called, she immediately stepped into the parking lot located behind the restaurant building. The lighting is minimal, so it is a little dark. However, there were two ticket guards standing guard at a small post. Their job is to attract parking money for guests who come to visit the restaurant.
Niken walks towards where Anita's car is parked, but suddenly her steps come to a halt. The car was no longer in its place. Didn't you think a few minutes ago Anita called? The time he left her? The feeling was not good for a moment. He picked up the phone and tried to call Anita's number, but apparently the young girl's phone could not be reached.
“Oh, God!”
Niken panicked, but then tried to calm down. He took a deep breath. If anything happens to Anita, she is certainly the most responsible. He only went to the toilet for a while, but why did Anita disappear so quickly? He circled around the parking lot, but could not find Anita's car.
In a panic, he immediately went to the front to meet a ticket officer who served in a post while listening to the radio there . The ticket keeper was a fairly aged man, his face seemed indifferent to the presence of Niken.
“Pak ... Sir! Did a silver Honda Genio sedan just come out of this parking lot?” ask Niken quickly.
“Sedan silver? There are some mama. Sorry, Whose mom?” the officer asked suspiciously.
“I am a cop, Sir! My friend was in the sedan and it was likely that someone had done something bad to him. I have to chase the car fast!”
Niken felt it was a waste to talk to the ticket officer. He ran to his car, then immediately drove out of the parking lot, then drove towards the highway. However, he was confused. Where is he going? He had no shadow of where he was going.
While driving, he kept trying to call Anita, but the answer was always the same.
The number you are going to is either inactive or out of range.
Niken was depressed with such a condition. Soon he coordinated with the traffic department to check the license plate of the car on behalf of Anita Wijaya. Within minutes, traffic sent Niken the license plate number.
“Please every police officer on duty to patrol and find the car with the license plate of this car, because this car is suspected of being run by people who intend evil. Please all to increase vigilance, as these criminals are dangerous and armed!”
Niken immediately spread the message to the police number to be forwarded to each section. He really hopes that his efforts this time will bear fruit. His mind was currently very chaotic. It just goes around in circles not knowing where, up to a saturation point. He gave up, parked his car on the side of the road, and started crying. He could not forgive himself if anything happened to Anita.
Suddenly his phone vibrated. He hopes to get good news, because it comes from the police number. He immediately raised the call.
“We got a report from the police officer that a silver car was hurtling at high speed towards the plantation area on the south side of the city. We have deployed several officers to track the car!”
Hearing the report, immediately the spirit of Niken rose. He immediately started the car engine, then drove following the instructions from the police report, which was to the south of the city, to the plantation area. He hoped that the police would not misidentify him, and he immediately got the hunt.

Reno had just been sipping coffee while enjoying a television broadcast when she heard a police report saying that artist Anita Wijaya had reportedly disappeared after dinner at Paragon Restaurant. He hurriedly put the coffee back down, and immediately rushed over wearing a black jacket.
“Outdated situation?” reprimand Silvia.
“That's it, Sil! An artist disappeared, and I had to intervene because I was handling a case that had something to do with this,” Reno said quickly, while hurriedly snatching the keys of the car hung in the place of the keychain.
“Dear by yourself, Ren!”
Reno immediately fled the car to the south of the city, according to a police report that said that they tracked the existence of a silver car that drove fast towards the plantation.
In the car, Reno is still thinking about Anita's safety, and he is also inexhaustible how Niken can be helped. He regretted that he should not have assigned Niken to watch over Anita. However, Niken is a new cop, although he has said he has a lot of experience. Now, Reno is in suspense with Niken.
From a distance there were sirens of police cars roaring. He thought, maybe the siren's roar would make the kidnapper Anita aware that he was being followed. He immediately drove the car. However, several times other police cars preceded him. Obviously the cars are tracking the whereabouts of silver cars.

Tied to her hand, Anita opened her eyes slowly. Apparently he was in the back seat of a car speeding through the dark path of the plantation. The car was already off the main road. The driver deliberately slowed down the car, because it passed through a dusty dirt road, with a stretch of trees on the right-left side.
Anita began to cry in fear, but she could not move because she was tied up. He can only scream.
“Let me go, please let me go!” anita pinta.
However, Anita's whining was not digubris. The driver of the car got further and further into the quiet and dark garden. Anita doesn't know what the kidnapper really wants.
“What ... what do you want? I'll fill it. Please let me go!”
“I just want you dead, Nita!” the kidnapper was firm.
“But ... but why do you want me dead?” ask Anita again.
“Anyone close to Daniel Prawira deserves to die!”
Anita could say nothing more. Her tears are flowing. Now he resigned when the car turned into a log cabin located inside the plantation. The cottage was like a long time not used, there was not even electricity there. Dark and quiet atmosphere.
“Sorry, Anita. Maybe tomorrow the city will be surprised by the discovery of the corpse of a girl in the durian garden. Well, this is Mr. Daniel's durian garden. You didn't think Mr. Daniel had a garden? But I do know. Maybe this is your last chance to see the world tonight. Tomorrow, it might be a different story!”
“Please! I don't want to die. Let go of me!” anita pinta.
The figure just shook his head and smiled.
“This time I cannot grant your wish. So get ready, Anita. Your time is not long!”
The figure turns off the engine and car lights, then pulls Anita from inside the car. He encouraged Anita to walk towards the dark cottage, then pushed her body again to fall on the floor of the cottage which was only made of cement. The floor was so dirty and cold.
“See you later, Anita!”
