Murder In The Old Castle
309. Lily's Plan
Early in the morning it had begun to colonize the surface of the earth, as an army of thin fog enveloped the universe. All the police who carried out the investigation have returned to the city. Some residents chose to sleep on the front porch, not daring to return to the room, while waiting for the morning. The discovery of writing in the mirror was soon an interesting topic of conversation. How not? The writing seems to refer to the horrific incident some time ago, when there was a murder of a number of writers in the same castle. At that time, the murder was masterminded by a young woman named Tiara Laksmi. Is it possible that the murderous spirit came back to demand revenge?
Rumors are growing among residents. Even Maya Larasati did not want to go into the room that Tiara had once occupied. He felt traumatized by the discovery of bloody writing in the mirror in the room. He sleeps on the couch, waiting for the morning. Nadine is too. He also deliberately sat for a long time while waiting for the morning. All are gripped with nightmares, and begin to believe that there is currently an evil force at work behind Lidya's murder.
In the reading room, Ammar and his colleagues were processing the temporary data they had collected. Ammar took out a diamond ring from his pocket. The ring was found by a police officer at the scene. He put the ring on the table.
"We wait, does anyone feel like they're missing this ring!" ammar.
"female ring? The killer ring or the victim's ring?" ask Reno.
"This is what we still have to do. Mariah also told me that she found two gold bracelets bearing the names of Lidya and Aditya, wrapped in blood-soaked newspaper. Tulian de Javu means repetition. What is repetition here?" ask Dimas.
"If it is associated with the blood writing in Maya Larasati's room, it seems like someone is deliberately scaring the occupants, as if this Tiara spirit is returning and demanding revenge. But I really don't believe all that shit! This must be the actions of one of the castle's inhabitants!" furious Reno.
"A little while in the morning. There were two policemen standing guard outside. I hope nothing bad happens after Lidya's murder. We have to be aware of all the possibilities" Ammar said.
"I've requested data from the police about the identity of anyone who lives inside this castle. Maybe some afternoon the data will be sent through the expedition service. I wonder about the background of each of these residents, whether there is a connection with each other or not. Especially Lidya. Is there a specific motive behind the woman's murder?" said Dimas.
"Lidya was initially swimming with her husband, somehow suddenly the husband went inside to pick something up. When the husband returned he did not find his wife in the pool, so he looked around. It was then that he found Lidya in a terrible fit in the pool toilet" Ammar said.
"Later to see the results of his autopsy," continued Reno.
"Now let's act fast. This afternoon too, I will interrogate them one by one!" said Dimas.
"Maybe we need to schedule another interrogation. They're going to the waterfall this morning. Maybe we shift the interrogation at night" Ammar said.
"What did they do to the waterfall?" sergeant Dimas.
"They want to have fun. That's what they came here for!"
"Happy leading to death?"
"No, as long as we apply strict escort to them!"
Dimas. He will not dispute anymore.

After the early hours, Mariah had prepared breakfast for the other residents. He had not had time to prepare the schedule of anyone who would cook breakfast, so he had to prepare. In fact, Mariah is not very good at cooking, so she only makes simple types of food and does not require much processing.
"You're going to the waterfall?" amar asked, bribing food.
"We're here to have fun Bang!" firmly Lily.
"Okay, we don't forbid you from having fun. However, safety remains the main thing. Yes, this incident surprised us. So it's not wrong if we try to protect all of you. Do not think, the waterfall is secluded place, and you need to know that in the waterfall there has also been an attempted murder of several young people. I don't want anything to happen to you at all" said Ammar.
"Okay, Bang Ammar doesn't have to worry. I've been to that waterfall. It must be safe!" said Lily.
"We don't trust Lily, but you don't know the condition around here yet. Today let two police officers escort you. Just to make sure that everything will be okay" said Ammar.
Lily was silent while shrugging her shoulders. Meanwhile, the other residents can only be silent.They just obey what was planned by Lily. This morning, all are scheduled to follow, as Lily will be taking photos together at the location of the waterfall. He had even tucked away a small banner. All the plans were prepared by Lily carefully, no wonder that she was so determined that the reunion event could run perfectly.
"It's a shame minus Lidya" complained Nadine.
"Already, Nadine. Don't let it ruin your mood!" rosita Tegur.
At exactly eight o'clock, they were getting ready to go to the waterfall, just waiting for two policemen who were about to escort them. The weather this morning looks bright, so it is appropriate to explore in the open. Paras the residents seemed enthusiastic about the plan to go to the waterfall. Jokes of laughter began to sound, as if the death of Lidya had just passed. They just want to have fun that day. Aditya, Lidya's husband, apparently also came down to enliven the event. His parents were not very happy, but he seemed to have been able to control the mounting emotions.
"Over a long time those cops! Huh!" lily grumbled while looking at the circular watch on her left arm.
"Maybe they're getting a briefing from Bang Ammar, or something else is being done" Ryan said.
"How about we go first? Later the police will follow?: proposed Stella while looking up to see the sun that began to blazing.
"Do they know the way?" ask Rosita then.
"Well, they're cops. You know the way if you get lost. They have weapons and equipment. We're going yuk! Hot hunt. Bang Ammar said that we should be back before night, because after dinner there will be an investigation. Later we are little if not immediately leave!" Stella gave her opinion again.
"How about the others?" lily asked while throwing a glance at all her friends.
"I agree with Stella. We're leaving now. I'm sure it's safe, without those two cops. It's gone bad!" complained Ryan.
"But what if .... " Nadine is speaking.
"Silence Nadine! We don't need your opinion right now! Don't let that ridiculous opinion of yours ruin this show!" cut Rosita.
