Murder In The Old Castle
361. Dimas Investigation
The sun began to shift moment by moment towards the western hemisphere. Dimas started the investigation session in the field. He deliberately visited one by one family of four names that he suspected. He started from the residence of Rosita, whose house is still inside into the bustling city center. Rosita's residence is in an upper-middle-class residential complex, close to a busy trade and business center. Unfortunately, the two-story house looked deserted. Dimas had knocked on the fence that was almost two meters high, but no one opened it.
He was about to leave the house, when suddenly a middle-aged father approached while looking at him suspiciously. After a brief chat, the father explained that the owner had moved away, so the house was left empty. Unfortunately the father did not know where the owner moved, even according to him, the owner of this house is rather closed and rarely hang out with neighbors, he said, so he did not know about the new address of the owner of the house.
After saying thank you, Dimas glided to the second location, the Mayan family residence. The location of the Mayan family home is a bit far away, sliding into the suburbs. The Mayan family home is quite simple when compared to the Rosita residence. It also comes from lower social strata compared to Rosita. The house is not too big, dull-walled, without a striking exterior. The house was in a pretty crowded village.
When Dimas visited the Mayan family residence, he was greeted with the sound of the cries of a young child about two years old who was in the arms of a matted-looking mother. He also saw some children running around the house. The atmosphere of the house looks messy, with clothes scattered, mixed with children's toys scattered. The tables and chairs looked out of place, like a broken ship.
"Sorry sir, my son has a fever again" the mother said briefly as she stuffed a bottle of pacifier on the child she was carrying.
Dimas felt disinclined to continue his research. But there he saw a teenager who met him. Dimas immediately wondered to the teenage boy who was still a dozen years old. Apparently he was Maya's sister. Apparently, Maya has four younger siblings, while she herself is the eldest. When Dimas asked the whereabouts of the father, the teenager just shook his head while saying.
"Father is gone and not back .... "
"Died?"
The teenager shook his head once more, without saying anything. Apparently he was reluctant to give a statement, as if his father's departure was a bitter memory that did not want to be revealed. Dimas can't force. At the very least, he knew a little about the background of the Maya family which did look messy.
After finishing with the Maya family, Dimas returned to the car and saw the two remaining names. Like he could not investigate the Lily family, because the woman was a migrant from the opposite island. His family lives on different islands, while Lily herself contracts a house in this city. Dimas crossed Lily's name, hoping to find more accurate information about this woman.
He immediately glided to the residence Nadine whose home location is not so far from the Maya residence, only three kilometers away. Nadine's residential house is also fairly simple, such as houses in the village in general. When Dimas knocked on the door, it took him about ten minutes until someone opened it. A middle-aged woman opened the door, but did not let her in. Dimas immediately knew this woman was Nadine's mother, because their faces were so similar. Equally beautiful.
After introducing herself, Dimas made small small talk, saying that he knew Nadine and her husband. Instead of getting a lot of information, Nadine's mother apparently did not give much information because she felt less well on that day. Dimas tried to see who was in the house, but it seemed to be quiet at home, only the sound of classical music in the 70s was heard from a gramophone instrument.
"Who do you live with?" ask Dimas.
"When Nadine gets married, I live with my husband and my daughter. There's my daughter inside," replied the mother shortly.
"Mother husband?"
Dimas only mangosteen. She wanted to dig deeper into the family, but Nadine's mother didn't give Dimas a chance to go deeper into his personal life. Dimas had no other choice. After feeling enough with the information, he immediately returned to the office to process all the data he could.
He was surprised, because the facts on the ground showed that the four names he traced had complete parents, and there was no problem. Perhaps only Lily was left unturned due to the parental position outside the island. He will soon coordinate with the police on the opposite island to look for this related information. While the residence of Rosita's new parents will also continue to be tracked, because the old address only leaves a house empty.

Krieet!
Ryan opened the door of the slightly dark and stuffy old cottage. It seems like nobody is there. He looked around, but the cottage looked silent. It goes deeper, inspecting the rooms in the cottage. He hoped to soon find his clothes in the room, because he had begun to feel an unpleasant feeling.he wanted to get out if he just found his clothes and pants.
He examined the first room, a dull room, with scattered furniture. He entered slowly, trying to maximize his handling. Since he was in High School, he actually felt a bit troubled by his vision, but he ignored. Now he is forced to enter a room that looks blurred in front of him,
After searching, he saw his clothes and pants on a worn wooden chair. He was happy, and immediately he put on his clothes and clothes. It is no longer necessary to linger in the room of the cottage. After he put on his clothes and pants, he intended to go out of the room, then to the front room.
However, he came to a halt as he was about to exit from within the hut, a person dressed in all black stood in front of the exit. Unfortunately, he could not identify who the black figure was. However, he was able to see the gurgle of the figure, it seemed like he had no good intentions. In the hands of the black figure was clasped a glittering sharp object. Ryan realized, this was not a good situation to fight, remembering he did not sound anything in his hands.
Ryan didn't want to take the risk. Immediately he turned his body, went back inside the hut quickly, looking for a hiding place or something that could be used to survive. His heart's beating turned fast. At first glance he remembered his dead friends, such as Lidya, Adit, and Farrel. He won't go to the next list.
Ryan was confused as to where he should run and hide. The room was not a castle that had many hallways and spaces to hide in. He had to make sense in order to escape. He looked back, the black figure was moving towards him. There was no other choice but to fight or die being slashed by that sharp weapon!
