Bram focused on figuring out a way to perfect the evidence for Jaret's case by starting to focus on Parikus. He had found an easier entrance. It relaxes his heart. Now all he had in mind was to hold Parikus to wave and explore everything related to his leader.

He will wait and see if any new orders are revealed with regard to his decision against Paricus. If the leader wants Parikus to keep working outside, it means he is doing something outside for his leader.' That was the initial detection that Bram was thinking about to determine his next policy to Parikus.

Bram had seen the attitude of Parikus who kept his mouth shut, not saying he was working on something outside. From Parikus' attitude and way of keeping his mouth shut, Bram realizes there is a secret between the two of them. So that the former leader of Parikus who Bram replaced, could not be firm against Parikus. Not even a problem or not to reprimand him, if out without permission in office hours.

As the officer named Hendra stood in front of him, Bram realized something was wrong. "What are you dealing with?" Ask Bram without further ado. Hendra immediately replied stammeringly, unable to focus on what Bram was asking.

"You go out and call the officer who's holding the list of cases you're all dealing with." Bram said seriously and firmly. He didn't want to talk to Hendra for long. For Bram, it's just like wasting time with people who can't focus on their work. He realized Hendra was already on drugs.

This is what Bram is worried about, so it does not allow Raka to follow him to serve in the narcotics section. If you are not strong-hearted and want to try to taste the drugs seized, it will end like Hendra. Cannot concentrate on performing the task at hand.

Hendra saluted and then came out calling a co-worker who was meant by Bram. Not long after, Bram's office door was knocked, and Bram told him to come in. After the officer in question entered, saluted and handed over the list of cases being dealt with, Bram could only take a deep breath. There are many cases, but the progress of the investigation is very slow.

Bram so understand the conditions that are in his part. He did not need to speak to Parikus' former superior again for confirmation of the truth of the reason Parikus did not handle the case. Why did Parikus not report to his former superiors, but to Bram's leadership. Because the name of Paricus is not in the list of names he received.

Now Bram is more and more open about the situation that existed before he was transferred here. The leader before him, did not give Parikus a case, there are many causes. It was indeed an order from the superiors not to give work to Parikus, or he did not want to deal with Parikus to be safe from the rage of the superiors. Or he was also an accomplice of their leader called 'big boss', so he begs Parikus.

All possibilities begin to mount in Bram's head. He will check the progress of the case handled by matching the name of the newly accepted officer with the name of the officer given to his leader to become a member of his team. From the two pieces of paper containing the name of the officer in his hand, he will find out how much % of the officer who is proffered by his leader.

"Let's get out...!" Bram took the officer out of his study to meet the officers outside the room. Bram did not want to linger, because the officer who came to submit a list of names had tasted drugs. Although Bram served in the investigation department, but he often encountered drug users. So one look, he can already judge people who have used or are using drugs.

After being outside the room, the officer returned to his desk. Bram saw one by one the officers in the room. Seeing the firmness of Bram's serious and cold attitude, the officers so panicked and stood with a ready and swift attitude, including Parikus.

"You all go home and rest. Tomorrow morning there's been a report of all the cases you've handled on my desk. You too, Parikus... Get home and solve your family problems. I'll have your report tomorrow morning." Bram said firmly and seriously. He saw a hint of pleasure on the faces of some officers, as he ordered Parikus to make a report. Bram ignores that and goes back to his study.

On the other side; after Elly's lawyer had left, Mama Jaret immediately approached her husband to ask what he had brought back. Papa Jaret took his wife to the room to show what she was carrying, so there was no need to ask a lot of questions and explanations.

"This is my safe deposit box that I took from the bank, because Jaret's deposit has also been frozen. For a while I would keep it to myself just in case, lest the investigation creep into the treasures we have." Papa Jaret explained and then poured the contents of the two bags onto the carpet.

Mama Jaret was surprised, because she did not expect her husband to keep a lot of dollars and gold bars in a safe deposit box. There were also a few extravagant hours among the various documents. "Do we have to secure what's on us, too?" Mama Jaret started to fret and panic. She thought of her SDB as well, which was kept without her husband's stature.

"You don't understand what I said? Secure what we can secure. It's not just Jaret, it's what's on us. It could be that the investigation is targeting us, if Jaret's source of funds is investigated." Papa Jaret said seriously.

"Why didn't you say it clearly? No bank is open 24 hours. I hope there's still time to hide that can be hidden." Mama Karet is getting panicked thinking about her SDB.

"Tomorrow don't you move your money in the bank to any account, or withdraw cash. Don't draw attention to what you're doing. All that money in savings and deposits, it's legal. I've reported it and it's on our list of riches." Papa Jaret said seriously, seeing the panic on his wife's face. He was worried, his wife fiddled with their savings in the bank with the intention to hide.

"Well...!" Mama Jaret nodded in agreement with what her husband said, but her mind could not move on from everything stored in her safe deposit box. 'Why didn't I think about it when I went to the bank?' Mama Jaret rebates, in between the panic and regret.

"That's what you want to keep here?" Ask Mama Jaret when she saw her husband was reinserting all the gold bars, dollars and other money into the bank bag he was carrying.

"It can't be here, because the safe doesn't fit anymore. I'll take him to store it somewhere else. Ready for dinner, I'm gonna take a shower and go get this." Papa Jaret said quickly, then left his wife to the bathroom. He knew his wife would ask or protest about his actions, so rush to the bathroom.
