Murder In The Old Castle
294. Case Analysis
The afternoon was so fast approaching, as the residents of the isolation house relaxed, waiting for dinner to arrive. At lunch, Reno announced that they would be gathered on the front porch. Hope the anxiety happens again. Usually if Reno gathers in the front room, he will interrogate or announce important things.
The anxiety was so pronounced, even Riky had to go back and forth to the toilet many times to urinate. This is common when she feels tense or depressed. If there is Widya, usually the girl always calms her down. However, this time it could only save her own anxiety. While Thunder looks calmer, chugging the black coffee he just made in the kitchen, while enjoying the afternoon air.
Henry could not be said to be calm either. He was indeed silent, but from his face stored a deep sense of nervousness. He took a chocolate bar from his pocket, then chewed on the chocolate. Meanwhile, Rianti snorted at her husband's bad habits. Sometimes Henry did not finish the chocolate he ate, then put it in any place, so Rianti was forced to clean up the remnants of the chocolate. She always reminded Henry that eating too much chocolate would make a distended stomach, but her husband seemed unwilling to listen.
When dinner arrived. The dinner was held quickly, without any meaningful conversation. Reno again reminded them to immediately gather on the front porch. In the dinner, two police officers were also seen yesterday was paralyzed by a mysterious person, namely Toni and Hardi. They were indeed asked specifically by Reno to keep the situation conducive. Learning from the previous case, when Ferdy held Adinda hostage, this time the residents were checked before entering the front porch, to be sure not to carry any weapons, or any suspicious tools. In addition, the two policemen guard all access out, so that the suspect who has been set is not easy to sneak.
After dinner, everyone had gathered in the front room hoping for anxiety. Their parasites were not calm, as if waiting for the court's verdict. As usual, Reno, Dimas, and Ammar entered the vestibule authoritatively. They were not friendly and were smiling as usual. The policemen looked so serious.
"Bo-can I go to the toilet for a second?" chirps Riky suddenly.
"Isn't this the eighth time?" said Dimas.
"I-yes, Sir. But .. I can't stand it!"
Dimas signals Riky to go to the toilet. To rule out any possibility, he was escorted by a police officer. After running, Riky went to the toilet. Reno will start talking, but wait for Riky from toliet. Before long, Riky returned from the toilet, but her face still looked tense,
"You ready?" ask Reno.
Everyone present in the front room just nodded slowly. They understand, maybe now the data obtained by the police is complete, so it can be said tonight is the night of proving the data. They were hoping to be anxious, waiting for Reno to immediately reveal the facts he had.
"You know why I gathered you here again. So look, Dimas has returned with new facts that are accurate. So, we're here already bagging one name. Whoever it is, you may reject our charges, but of course you must prove your innocence. Well, so we'll start soon!"
Dimas gave a map of dark blue to Reno. In this map is listed chronologically event after event, and of course the results of the analysis of the police. Everyone was feeling tense, seeing Reno unblinking and holding their breath.
"Okay, let's start with the first event. The death of Daniel Prawira shocked everyone, even the entire city. He is known as a successful director in every film he worked on. No wonder, he is among the richest directors in the country. Daniel's body was found in a cable in the toilet when he just came out of the bathroom. The first person to find the body was Riky. Right?" said Reno while arranging tajm towards Riky.
Riky simply nodded, without daring to look back at Reno. His heart was pounding, waiting for Reno's next revelation.
"We found no clues to the murder, not even fingerprints. This killer worked very neatly, leaving no trace. We didn't find anything strange except a new lead that leads to the next killer. From Daniel's own office, we found a multi-billion-dollar insurance policy, as well as a birthday card with the initials Re in the card. What is clear, the card is not from the late wife of Daniel. later we will reveal who the actual maker of the greeting card," Reno explained.
The anxiety soon crept back. Even at a loss for words. Their minds focused on every word Reno spoke.
"Not to mention that we have solved the first case, we have been terrorized with the second case. The victim this time is Anita Wijaya, who later we know that Anita is very dear to Daniel Prawira. Even the name of Anita was changed to Margaret Prawira, to make it look like they were related. This name appears on Daniel's insurance policy. Unmitigated, tens of billions of treasures he bequeathed to Anita. Anita's body was found hanging in Daniel's own durian garden, in terrible conditions. Inside the girl's mouth was a new lead that led to her next murder, Ollan. After we researched, it was Ollan who was the next target. At the scene of Anita's murder, we could barely find any evidence except for this chocolate pack!"
Reno took out a brown-glass wrapper with the Silver King, then showed it to the rest of the inhabitants of the isolation house.
Henry, Laura, and Thunder raised their hands. The taste of chocolate is delicious, so many people like it.
"Sorry, of course, this chocolate cannot be used as a benchmark that who likes this brand of chocolate is definitely the killer. Chocolate can come from anywhere, so not necessarily you like the chocolate, then you are considered the killer. Not like that, because there is still more corroborating evidence" Reno said.
The three chocolate lovers breathed a sigh of relief, but they were still curious about Reno's words.
"Wrap the chocolate can be just a distraction, because this chocolate brand can be obtained in supermarkets or even other stores. There are indications that this chocolate pack was deliberately placed by the killer to be found by the police, so that the police consider it an important evidence, but of course the police cannot take it for granted." Reno continued.
"We're proceeding to the attempted murder of Ollan! I know you're impatient. Ollan could be said to be very lucky, because we came just as Ollan was about to be finished off in his room. The location of the attempted murder was in Henry's Pale Yellow Villa. Someone apparently knew that Ollan was quieting his mind here, so he almost got killed in that place,"
