Revenge By Law's
ARTICLE 32

Roy's body was still trembling as he was tracing the corridor that would lead him to the rutan exit. Almost all the words that came out of Abi's mouth hit him. However, the last sentence became the heaviest attack and still ringing in his head.

“And I know, the root of that tree is someone very terrible. He was the conductor of the bastard system. Without him, you're fucked. And with him, you're troublemakers. I don't know who that guy is. But, seeing how scared you were whenever our side attacked at the trial, I'm sure he was there. Tell him, one day I will face him directly in the condition of knowing each other as opponents. I will destroy it so that my vengeance, that of uprooting the tree, can be paid off. Tell Mr. Jireh.”

Roy knows how terrible Mr. Jireh is. He never even mentioned his name. But Abi, who was a nobody and had nothing, dared to challenge the man. It turned out, the teenager he had once slandered a few years ago had grown into a monster and was now at a higher level than him.

“Sayang?”

A soft voice called out to him. His eyes that were already twitching were trying to find the source of the sound. It turned out to be from a tall beautiful woman that he was very familiar with.

“Honey? Why are you here?”

That woman is Regina. He held onto Roy's shoulder and tried to support him because it looked like the body was about to fall.

Meanwhile, not far from them, Indira and Rama whispered to each other.

“I didn't expect to lose they got engaged. Besides Regina looks smart and the prosecutor looks stupid, at that time she called Abi 'my husband' and they look very familiar. Yes, he is more suited to Abi than that stupid prosecutor.”

Rama smiled at the opinion of Indira. “The situation is very complicated, Brother. Everyone who knows the three of them knows that it used to be bang Abi love Regina and Regina love bang Abi, until the kunyuk appeared between them.”

“Abi ever loved Regina?” For some reason, Indira felt very disappointed.

“Conon used to be old friends, it seems like since SD. From the story I heard, they were almost dating. Unfortunately, it happened that made Bang Abi imprisoned and expelled from school. Though arguably the event occurred because bang Abi tried to protect Regina from Roy's abusive treatment. Funnily enough, after the Abi bang came out, Regina and Roy were dating until finally getting engaged. It's just, Regina instead looks more often spoiled with bang Abi compared to the prosecutor.”

Indira nodded as if beginning to understand the complicated situation Rama meant. Then, they were shocked when the prosecutor suddenly snapped.

“Why are you dressing up in this place? Even you never use the slightest make up when dating me or when meeting my parents.”

“Stop acting like a child. I always dress up if I want to meet Abi.”

Then Roy clasped Regina's right wrist tightly while looking at her sharply, as if his anger had already peaked. Although this was not the first, he would not have his fiancee treat the person who had just brutally attacked him with any special.

“Get your hands off! You must know that I have often beaten the criminals,” said Regina who returned Roy's sharp gaze with a gaze that was no less sharp.

“You mean, I'm a villain?”

Regina did not answer. He looked at Roy hatefully, before saying, “As long as you think so.”

They looked at each other long enough and without words. Indira and Rama feel awkward about the situation. Eventually, Roy lets go of his hand and continues on to the exit, leaving his fiancee.

“Journalists are waiting for you outside. Have fun,” said Rama half-whispering as the prosecutor passed them.

Meanwhile, Indira looked at Regina who was rubbing her right wrist. The woman who had always behaved tough in front of him, now looks upset and fragile. Unlike what Indira thought, the woman walked towards them with a gloomy face. He passed through Indira and Rama.

“Lho, what happen? Not so visit bang Abi?”

Regina gave no answer. It seems he did not hear. Indira pokes Rama and signals him not to disturb the police.

“No, no. We must go now,” said Rama. Indira showed a confused face as if asking the reason. Then Rama brought his mouth closer to Indira's ear and whispered, “Bang Abi just said that now we have to check something.”

Indira's face was now more confused. “When did Abi tell you?”

Rama showed me his cell phone screen and saw a message conversation. It is very clear from his language that the interlocutor of Rama in the conversation was Abi.

“Rama smuggled her phone two days ago.”

Almost Indira shouted to hear the confession of Rama. “How can? It was a pretty heavy foul on the rutan. If caught, he will get big trouble.”

“Rama already said the same thing to bang Abi. But he said, he really wants to make a big problem.”

Indira shook her head because she was not finished with the behavior of her clients. Since then, worries began to surround his heart, making him second-guess what kind of big problems Abi planned.

The mood of the rutans is deserted. No more sounds could be heard except for the steps of the several guards who were patrolling through each rutan room. The prisoners have been busy with their dreams.

However, one prisoner was still awake. It settles in a smelly, messy toilet. His eyes were carefully checking the state at all times. Not even his roommate was aware of his activities.

The prisoner was Abi. He pulled a brick that was previously attached to one side of the wall. During the rutan, Abi had realized the state of the brick, which was no longer firmly attached to the bricks around him.

In the last few days, Abi eroded the middle of one side of the brick until it formed like the letter u. The side faces inside the wall so that it is not visible from the outside. The result of his scrape was thrown little by little out of the field. Of course, he was inspired by the movie about the escape from the best prison of all time, The Shawshank Redemption.

Abi deliberately made a gap in the brick for his place to hide the cellphone that was smuggled by Rama. Since his body was confined within this rut, he needed a 'control' that would help him to carry out the great mission he had designed fifteen years ago.

He begins by accessing his cloud, which contains many important secrets from important people who have Roy, his father and the police who tortured and imprisoned him first.

“I will not make his position as public prosecutor in my case disappear. I want to play around even longer with her,” Abi murmured to herself. “How about his brother and sister?”

Abi opened several neatly arranged folders, ranging from alphabetical to the names of people who had been in love.

He found some files whose names are identical to Roy's brother and sister's names. Later, he pressed the button to share the files and then chose a number named one of the corruption eradication agencies and a number named NGO that specifically oversees corruption cases in this country.

“Bro, how long? Still alive, right? Cepetan, I'm kebelet.”

Abi is shocked to hear the sudden sound of Aben, one of his roommates. Then, he opened an app on his phone and pressed one of the buttons. Then there was a sound like people were passing wind and defecating.

“Sorry, Bro. My stomach is not right.”

“Yes, I'm waiting. But please accelerate, yes.”

Abi looked back at his phone. The file has been sent. Then he turned off the phone and put it back in the brick. I hope something fun happens tomorrow.
