MYSTERY OF TWO LODGES
CHAPTER 211 (STORE RENTAL )


They're still in Gemezzz's shop, Dogel's already shutting down the store's harmonica door, but they're still waiting until Ali, Novi and Saeful are done with their activities wasting their entrails.


“How are the kids, are you better? if it's better let's just go home”


“Kita find food and warm tea first sir, pity the three of them, can catch a cold with the contents of the stomach that has come out all pak”


“Ya true to Dogel”


After waiting for a few minutes, the three people who vomited vomited got into the car.


Dogel directed the car towards the town square, because there are usually still some food stall sellers who are still open.


“Let's eat first, fill the empty stomach of the three of you”


“After this we go back to the house of the princess only, tomorrow morning until noon we see what happens in Gemezzz nak”


There was no answer from the three people who were now in limp condition as a result of their vomiting earlier.


*****


The morning was sunny after the five of them were able to sleep well even if only briefly, they were in the living room of Princess Dogel's house.


“Today me and one of you are monitoring the state of Gemezz, I want to know how the opinion of the residents whose homes around Gemezz are children”


“We have to know why the people around there are not bothered by what happened in Gemezzz, though we already know for ourselves how rotten what is in the Gemezz is the children of”


“Sama Novi only sir, it's better in the morning, because usually mothers if the morning is outside to just shop and sweep” said Novi


“Ya is now, let's have Dogel, later Dogel will wait in the car parked a little far away. We will be there again in the afternoon and evening. Anyway I want to know the state of Gemezz before we go into it”


“Nak Ali and son Saeful wait at home first while the three of us see how things are in front of Gemezz”


Dogel's car runs into Gemezzz's shop, and they are shocked to arrive around Gemezz's shop because what they see is not what they think it is.


“Lhooo how can that be, how can in front of the Gemezz store so the market is shocked?” novi


“Wuih there are about eight cycling traders who bring various raw materials to masak”


“Hihihi there is even a tarpaulin pack, hehehe” said Dogel


“Wah it's strange that children, uh we better go there, just to buy ingredients and ask a little about the store that closed it” invite mr. Tembol


The front page of the Gemezz store changed its function to a startled market, a startled market that is usually there in the morning. The market is shocked which is usually to cater to buyers who are a bit away from the big market.


The shocked market in front of the Gemezz is crowded with shopping mothers.There are even those who are sitting on a porch with a ceramic floor in front of the harmonica door.


“Heheheh means that the footprints that are there belong to traders and buibu who are there nak”, Mr. Tembol told Novi


“Different pack, shoe soles that Novi portraits are expensive shoe soles, meanwhile traders and mothers mostly use flip-flops only pak” timpal Novi


“Can also what nak Novi said is true, let's mix son, buy some groceries that can be stored a little long nak hehe”


Finally, Mr. Tembol and Novi mixed with the traders and buibu who were bidding for the goods they bought from the merchant.


After some time they were both there, Mr. Tembol gave a sign to Novi to end their activities at the market shocked in front of the Gemezz store.


Novi brought some cassava skewers that he looked like he would boil or fry, while Pak Tembol only brought some tempe boards wrapped in banana leaves.


The two of them are now in the car, to discuss what they experienced when they were at the market in front of the Gemezz store.


“The first and most prominent one does not smell around there sir. there is absolutely no foul odor, there is only a fishy smell from the fish that the merchant brought it” said Novi


“Iya right Novi, there is absolutely no smell of carrion there son, how can it happen?” ask Mr. Tembol to astonishment


“Wait sir, Novi curious about who is there, it's good Novi should chat with buibu it pak”


“Ya have tried to ask questions with them about Gemezzz store it”


Novi got off the parked car a little bit far away, He walked back to the Gemezzz store yard.He had to ask some people who were there about what was really going on there.


Novi approached a vegetable merchant who held merchandise right in front of the Gemezz store's harmonica door.


Novi squatted in front of the female merchant who was serving the buyers of some buibu who was choosing the vegetables he was titled.


“How many are these tomatoes? kok still a lot of tomatoes bu” asked Novi pointed to tomatoes that still look a lot of stock


“Tomat again expensive cah ayu.. ndak no one wants to buy tomato hehehe”.


“I bought it bu, one kilo how much?”


“Sekilo twenty-five thousand cah ayu. kulake price is expensive once” said the mother traders.


“Sekilo can how much bu?”


“Most if not five yes six seeds.


“Yo wis I buy two kilos only bu”


“Alhamdulillah.. penglareeeesesss... penglarees” said the greengrocer.


“Eh cah ayu this person where to, why have I never seen around here?” ask the seller


“I am from Mjsr bu, I want to meet the same who has this store, who knows can be contracted. do you know the same mother who has this store?”


“Waduuuh if this store is rented lha we can not sell here again dong cah ayu?” ask the merchant


“Ya can to buuu. My plan is to open a food depot that is open in the afternoon until evening only.the market here is not the morning bu hehehe”


“Iya cah ayu. but I don't know who owns this store.maybe it's Warjito's bu, he's his home at the back of this store”.


“Which Warjito bu is?” ask Novi


“Lha is cah ayu.. who is choosing chicken, monggo I call ya” first.


Vegetable traders whose tomatoes have been in line Novi then stood up and approached the old woman who was choosing chicken at a merchant who specifically sells cut chicken.


An old woman named Bu Warjito then approached Novi accompanied by a vegetable seller.


“How can I help?” ask a woman named Bu Warjito


“My name is Novi bu, I am from Mjsr. I want to ask this store bu”


“Mbaknya this want to rent it means?”


“Betul bu, I want to ask first about the store that I plan to rent”


“Oh so,... then we chat at home just mbak.. come to my house first just” invite bu Warjito


“Mbok Darmi. matur nuwun yooo” said bu Warjito greeted the vegetable seller who had his tomatoes bought by Novi


“Monggo bu Darmi, I want to go to Warjito bu first”


“Oh monggo cah ayu, hopefully fit ya hehehe”

Warjito's bu's house turned out to be right behind Gemezzz's shop, should Warjito's mom know anything about the activities in the house.


“Monggo nak.. sit down first, I want to call my husband first” said bu Warjito then enter his house which is located just behind the Gemezz store.


Not long after that Bu Warjito came out with her husband who also looked old as well.


“This is my husband Nak Novi, my husband is handed over by the store owner to work on the store it”


“Sorry sir I interrupt, uh my name is Novi , I am from Mjsr, it happens that several times I passed here see the store is empty”


“Me and my husband have plans to open a food depot around MJkt, only until now has not been able to place it on the side of the main road”


“It happened to be the location of the store on the side of the road, but I did not know who to contact to rent the store, because there is no phone number at all”


“Begini mbak...”sata bu Warjito's husband who is definitely named Pak Warjito as well.


“The shopkeeper was very nice to us, he came here several times to meet with me, he is a rich man from S” city said husband bu Warjito


“He always told me to find a store tenant, and what makes me very sympathetic is that the rent is only for our family who already want to keep the store” said Mr. Warjito


“So the store owner is sincere if the rent money is for our family, provided we have to take care of the store as well as possible”


“So if this Novi mbak wants to rent a store yes monggo.mau annual rent monggo, monthly also monggo mbak” said the husband of bu Warjito with great enthusiasm.


“Oh so yes sir, wah very noble owner of this store sir, until he gave the money of rent to this family.”


“If you can know how much the rent is for monthly first, sir, because we will be very helped if we can rent monthly first” said Novi


“The month is only one million mbak, but if you want to rent one year pay is only next to million course”


“Hmm the price goes in anyway sir, or just gini sir, I will negotiate with my husband first, it happens that my husband is also looking elsewhere. but I am sure my husband Totok Saefulah will be happy with this tokok”


“Lho hahaha the name of her husband mbak Novi is Totok hahaha, kok is the same as the name of the owner of this store, wah may we mate mbak, may Mbah Novi so rent the store it” said Pak Warjito.


“Good father and mother Warjito, tomorrow I will bring my husband here, to chat with mom and dad all see the inside of the store” said Novi


 “Siaaap mbak Novi, we wait tomorrow ya”


“Wah earlier mbak Novi exhausted tomato bulk huh?” ask Mr. Warjito when he saw a large crackle of tomatoes that Novi was carrying


“Iya sir, I want Novi borong tomate mbok Darmi. Mesakke mbok Darmi sir, tomate ora payu, fortunately there are good people like nak Novi who want to wholesale tomate mbok Darmi” said bu Warjito


“Iya bu, Novi kan every morning must eat tomatoes, after all Novi pity see mbok-mbok that sell tomatoes, because the tomatoes have not sold”


“Ya already ma'am Warjito, Novi pamit first, tomorrow morning here again with husband Novi to talk further”


Novi left from the Warjito family home which was located right behind the Gemezzz store.  For the time being Novi feels there is a way out for in-store investigation by way of monthly rent.


For the money, of course, will be thought of together.


*****


Novi, pak tembol and Dogel are already at home, they are in discussion about what Novi was talking about with a husband and wife named Warjito.


“So the store was rented and the one in charge of taking care of the house was an old couple nak Novi?”


“Iya sir, and according to Novi the only way to get into me yes we have to rent the house was”


“Nak Novi, last time nak Novi was in the store, did not smell bad smell?”


“Not at all sir, was not the Tembol sir also there, and there is absolutely no bad smell right?”


“True children, last time I was with Novi, not smelled at all the smell of carcasses like us at night there” said Mr. Tembol


“So how are these kids, we have to rent that store in order to get inside freely. It's just that we are constrained by the rental fee of one million it” said Mr Tembol


“Do not worry sir, about rent let me handle it, I have a million rupiah pak” said Dogel


“I was so curious, is there still a foul smell in there when we will rent the store?”


“Or put it this way, Novi. it's good to have Novi there with son Saeful said that he had been there at night, but there was a bad smell around there. How?” said mr. Tembol


“Ya is already sir, so novi and mas Saeful tomorrow morning to there , but we say that the nights at 22:00 when we pass here we stop for a while, in front of the store, but we say that the nights at 22:00, and it turns out there's a carcass smell.. Is that so sir?”


“It's like that Novi boy, try to see how the face of the Warjito bu. But do not forget to say that Novi nak and Saeful nak have agreed to rent the store it”


“Oh yes sir, when Novi said that Novi's husband named Totok Saefulah turned out they were sumringah, because the store owner was also named Totok”


“They are happy because there is a similar name, then the husband and wife said hopefully a soul mate with the store because there is a similarity in name between the store owner with the name Totok Saefulah hihihi”


Renting a house is another plan from them, because there are things that are beyond their expectations, but fortunately they met the person who Totok told to rent the store.
