Murder In The Old Castle
XCYX. Analyzes
Reno stood before the other castle dwellers. The light of the candle was dim, reflecting his shadow. The candle's wind was blown by the night wind. The atmosphere was still tense, as Reno promised to uncover all the secrets stored in this castle. After catching his breath, Reno continued her analysis.
“The key to this case is actually the familial relationship between Anggara and the perpetrator. Anggara is the father of this perpetrator with his first wife named Anjani. As soon as he married Anastasia, Anggara immediately threw away his babies. So after we tracked down the missing baby, it turned out to be in a parlour. The twins were adopted again by a woman. They grew up together, but one of them harbored a burning hatred. He envied his sister's success as a novelist, and became obsessed with her. On one occasion, his brother was murdered while with his girlfriend in the apartment, and he ran away, pretending to be his sister he killed,” Reno said.
The residents were still silent, not interrupting a word. Reno's story sounds interesting, at the same time horrible. They were very curious as to who exactly Reno meant.
“He then took advantage of an invitation from Anggara to go to this castle to complete his revenge with Anggara, and met his mother who is said to be under this castle. And the interesting thing is that Helen also helped the action, no matter what they planned. We know that the perpetrator was female...” Reno's speech stopped.
“Tiara! Definitely Tiara! I was expecting it!” peekot Maira's.
“Let me continue, Maira. This girl is very smart to pretend in front of you, unfortunately once you are off guard she can do anything. We searched the room this afternoon. In her wardrobe, we found a photo of her twin being doodled, as well as an astonishing object. It was an axe covered in blood that had dried up. We suspect this axe was used for a previous crime,” Reno continued.
“Surely the axe was used to slaughter Yoga!” murmured Michael.
“We also found a pendant decorated with roses, in which there is a photo of a woman” Reno said again.
“Photo who?” ask Hans.
“Photo of a famous author. Karina Ivanov. From the note I requested from Maira, that writer had also been slaughtered in the tea garden. And who knew that Karina was in the tea garden only two people, namely Cornellio and him. No one knew where Karina was going at the time. Does this analysis make sense?”
All present are mangosteen. The murder of Karina Ivanova is one of the most horrific events ever experienced. How could I forget?
“The self-styled author continues to launch his action. He steals Michael Artenton's novel, then duplicates the methods of murder in the novel, in order for Michael to become a suspect. We also found Michael's lost novel in a scissor-scissors state in his wardrobe. Unfortunately we're not that stupid. Not only that, he also tried to slander Adrianna by stealing her perfume and put the perfume bottle in Maira's closet. To cover up his suspicions, he pretends to be friendly with Adrianna. He also managed to terrorize many other residents, including young children who were camping near the waterfall. Not only that, he also damaged the car so that access to the city was completely cut off. Even he also damaged the brakes of the car driven by Ammar, so it plunged into the ravine,” said Reno.
“Lack of you! I'd love to finish it off with my own hands!” Hans seemed to be holding back anger.
“You still want to fuck her? I'm sick of seeing the mask of innocence!” maira Cibir.
“I'm very worried about Elina's situation,” worries Aldo.
“You just calm down. Elina was hurt when I met her last underground, her neck was hurt by the perpetrator, but dr. Dwi has handled it!” said Dimas.
“Gosh! I must see his condition immediately!”
“Quiet, Aldo! Don't act silly!” prevent Michael.
Ammar was silent. Previously he had discussed with his two colleagues, so he was not too surprised by the exposure of Reno and Dimas.
“We are not without proof. Before deciding that this girl was the culprit, we had discussed it before. Everything leads to him. The problem now is, even though we know the name of this perpetrator, he is also not easy to find. With the help of Helen, he mastered the intricacies of the castle and the dungeon. Dimas said Anjani, the mother of the killer, had been held in the basement for years. But all this time he was helped by Helen to stay afloat,” Reno said.
“So how do we step? We are ready to help bend him!” michael is excited.
"We need a strategy. Can't be rash!" reno.
“Takdeniably, the perpetrator of all this chaos is Tiara Laksmi!"

Helen staggers as her arm is pierced by a bullet while wrestling with Hans in the dining room. Blood is shed, causing pain. He entered one of the rooms in the basement, after escaping through a secret door in the reading room. In the room, Tiara Laksmi was waiting in a state of disarray.
“I'm shot! I quit all these games. I don't want to die. All plans have failed. We must have been caught. I won't help you anymore, Tiara!” said Helen.
“You fool, Helen! You shouldn't be careless about attacking Hans while in the dining room. Because of your actions, everything almost fell apart. But I'm sure I can still get away with it after all this. No need to kill them all, but now I'm focused on killing the goddamn doctor who killed my mom!” furious Tiara.
“Doctor Dwi is alive?”
“Yes! Even he saved the fool Adrianna. Soon they will unite against us. Well, I have one idea for this. We're gonna lock all the castle doors tight, then we're gonna burn this castle, get them toasted alive. After that we fled to the city in that police car!” sermon Tiara.
“No Tiara! Enough already! That's too dangerous! I killed one of the young men, and kept the body in the bathroom. I don't want to do anything else!” reject Helen.
“You rejected Helen?” tiara asked furiously.
“Iya Tiara! I don't care about the gold. Because of all that I almost died getting shot by the police. Just do it yourself! I promise I'll shut up!” said Helen.
“I think they already know my identity, because the police from that city brought a lot of facts and evidence. But I'm not just going to give up. I'm not a coward, Helen! I'll get away with all this!”
“No Tiara! I don't want to!”
“Stupid! You are useless!” Tiara was angry, then thrust a sharp object into Helen's stomach.
Jem!
The old woman did not expect that Tiara would do that. He felt it stab in the stomach, accompanied by excruciating pain. Not to mention that he was aware, Tiara had already stabbed his body many times. Helen collapsed like an old tree. Blood is on the floor!
“Mamp*us you, traitor! Don't think me weak. No one else can think of me as weak or demeaning! I will still be the winner. You hear that, Helen?” tiara said to Helen's body that no longer moved.
“This time your turn will arrive. Everyone has to die. All must be punished!”
Tiara stood up, put on her robe and mask then chuckled. The blink of an eye, he came out disappearing in the dark of the passageway.
