My Beautiful Lawyer

Fajri sat in front of his office computer. He checked out some emails and read them.

[I've checked, there are the rest of the foundation weakening medicine left on the sidelines of the foundation that is almost collapsed. This landslide was planned long ago. He's a professional, it's probably been done over three months]

Fajri sighed loudly reading the email that the construction man gave him that he sent to check the river side foundation.

Fajri closes his email and shifts his focus to the hospital CCTV footage sent to him.

Some he's seen, but nothing suspicious. The nurse, who was carrying anesthesia supplies, said she felt she didn't see anyone taking her medication. He doesn't remember anything at all. He realized the drug was gone after being told someone was abusing the drug.

When Fajri saw himself coming in from the front door of the hospital, he remembered a man bumping into him and saying nothing at all.

He remembered his face, he looked for it on the other tape. Re-examine everyone who came out at the same time. The man's face is not so visible on the tape as he looks down.

Fajri's eyes were red from exhaustion, he looked at Agung who came with narrowing his eyes. Great laugh to see it.

"Have you got anything?" ask Great.

"Not yet! the recording is not very clear, the level of sharpness is not good. Difficult enlarge. They should have improved the CCTV quality" Fajri complained.

"You're gonna ask them to do it?" Grand sat beside him.

He put a CCTV tape.

"What is Dad?" asked Fajri who put his head in his stretched out hand.

"This is CCTV footage of a car being installed on someone's dashboard. He sent it after knowing Nabila was a victim of rudapaksa. He came here yesterday afternoon. He said he saw Nabila was walking in a large housing complex there" explained Agung.

Fajri was immediately excited, he took the tape and played it.

"When was he called again, Dad?" ask Fajri.

"Sir, we're at work!" Agung rectifies Fajri's call to him at the office.

Fajri sighed with a smile.

"Ok, Sir. When will the witness be called again?" asked Fajri while looking at him.

"Tomorrow. Today we will go there to see the possible direction Nabila took after the turn" replied Agung.

"Ready Sir!" exciting Fajri.

Agung saw an article about the landslide. He raised both of his eyebrows out of curiosity.

"You're investigating about the landslide. Why?" ask Great.

"Yes sir, but Mr. Grace forbids me. I found an awkwardness. The water from the new upstream came while we were evacuating the victims and securing the location" Fajri explained.

Great to think hard. He thought the same thing with Fajri.

~If the water just came after the landslide, then what makes the foundation so fragile because of the flow of water?~ ask the Great heart.

"Tens of years sir, the foundation is decades old. Even so, it is not easy for the foundation to abrasion only because of the flow of the river. The monsoon rains with the wind also only started a few weeks ago. I'm still investigating it, the construction department says finding the rest of the drug makes it easier to dismantle the foundation of a building inside. He concluded that the drug had been used for the past three months. This was all planned sir!" fajri.

Agung who initially stood up to invite Fajri to the location, so sat down. His mind brought himself to accuse his adopted daughter. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

Fajri lowered his gaze. He thinks the same thing, but will find out more deeply so as not to interfere with all his thoughts.

At the hospital, Beno and two police officers waited at the door of Nabila's room to keep watch. Vishnu looked at his sister's pale face. Her bruises began to disappear, she was still grateful despite having seen her sister many times like a corpse. He tried to toughen up, especially now he had to be more vigilant. His sister is really being hunted by people who want him dead.

Hasna retreated and was about to leave again, but Vishnu saw her.

"Hasna!" Vishnu.

Hasna looked up and smiled in embarrassment. Vishnu approached, they sat together in a chair after Beno moved inside.

"I'm sorry, yesterday I..."

"It's okay, I get it. I don't know what revenge it is, I feel it now. I really want the person you call 'devil' to die in front of me" Vishnu said as he held tight to his chest.

Hasna held his hand to support him. Vishnu wept bitterly as he bowed and covered his face with both hands.

Hasna felt sad and angry. On the other side of his heart, he felt that he already had the support of Vishnu. He was determined to work harder to find all the evidence.

After talking a lot about what they had to do during the reporting and hearing, Hasna said no. This time he didn't have to hide anymore to come. Vishnu asked for his help as a lawyer directly to help him. He became more confident.

For two days Dudung did not visit his wife. He remembers hitting a detective at the exit. She was also hesitant to ask her in-laws about the state of the VIP room. Her parents can be suspicious, she won't take any chances. But he was very curious whether Nabila was dead or alive. He was very nervous about it.

Bima watched him from inside the house. He thought he would make Dudung admit all his mistakes and take responsibility for imprisonment. Bima thought he would hire the best lawyer so he could be punished with a light sentence.

Bima sighed, a newly working female servant came in and put her coffee glass on the table. He looked at the back of the maid until she disappeared back into the kitchen. Bima took a deep breath then smiled. He picked up his cup of coffee and drank it little by little then smiled again.

Fajri and Agung have arrived at a large housing complex on CCTV. They split up to check every CCTV footage installed at the compound.

Fajri asked everyone about Nabila. Some of them answered the same answer, they were working at that hour. Nobody lives at home. CCTV installed is only to go to the entrance of their house. No one put it on the side of the road.

The servants who worked said the same thing. They went home at that hour, because their work was done.

Agung checked the CCTV footage of the mini market in front of the complex. The recording only shows the back of Nabila who had walked far recorded after the car parked in the yard mini market left. He wanted to ask for it but had to wait for their manager's permission.

Fajri sat on the sidewalk and rubbed his head. He looked at one of the streets from dozens of streets from the housing complex. The housing is quite big. There are alternative roads connected to some other housing. He scratched his sweaty head, until the eve of the night, had not found anything. Fajri calls his father to ask his whereabouts.

"Where's dad?" ask Fajri.

"I'm in the mini market ahead" replied Agung.

"Oh my God, I've been around all day, but I haven't been out of the mini market since" Fajri lamented.

"There's Nabila on the CCTV footage, I want to ask for it but I have to wait for the manager"

Agung didn't realize his phone was turned off Fajri. He sighed when he saw his phone wasn't in the call.

"Brazed kid! Not finished talking already obeyed" upset Agung.

Fajri ran towards the mini market where they parked. He saw the tape and they repeated it several times. But still, can't guess which house Nabila went to.

Fajri and Agung stared at the entrance of the housing complex with narrowed eyes. They're tired already.

"HEY.....! When's your manager coming!" shout Fajri.

The mini-market employee was surprised and called back. Soon he approached Fajri and Agung and said that his manager would come tomorrow.

"Ahhhh..fucking!"

Fajri is hysterical because of his tiredness. Agung just kept quiet then stood up and pulled Fajri's jacket for him to get up and come home.
