SURVIVORS
Chaptre 235. Itinerary
"All right, I'll talk to him tomorrow."
Widuri responded to Dean's request from the City Chief.
"Tomorrow we go into town" Dean nodded.
"Then how do we get to the city of the dead?" ask Robert.
He and Kang spent the night at Dean's place tonight. Tomorrow is the time for treatment.
"I can drive Kang, "sunil bargained.
Robert nodded. Although he wanted to come, but no one else could take him there. Alan obviously had to standby at base camp.
"So what about the continuation of the information of the city of Rawa?" ask Dr. Chandra.
"Yet there is no addition. Tomorrow I ask again. Alan, tomorrow morning start taking the fish in the sea. Women can start processing fish for long trips. We'll put in storage space to keep it fresh."
Dean gave some other instructions regarding the cruise plan, if so departing within the week.
"We'll prepare!" marianne Sahut. He heads the kitchen without having to be appointed. Ordinary women follow his orders.
"But we have to prepare enough grain for this trip. I think it's important to prepare granola bars that are more practical and also healthy for emergencies" Marianne said.
"alright. Tomorrow I ask Yabie if we can harvest some of the wheat in her field, in exchange for our wheat fields that have not yet entered the harvest."
Dean thought quickly to overcome some things that were very important to their journey.
Kang touched Robert's forehead to say something.
"Said Kang, you can take some of the wheat harvest yesterday. There's also still enough buckwheat to share" Robert said.
"Can. But, give just one third of what he plans to give. Kang must have enough stock until the next harvest. He may also still have to help the starving Vivian group." Dean nodded.
"Robert, about Vivian and her group. Is it not dangerous to let him know about us here? he must have told me about the operation at the time." Michael couldn't get that thought out of his head.
Kang touched Robert's forehead.
"Kang's already erased his memory of that." Robert said what Kang said.
"What?!" yell at everyone.
They looked at Kang in disbelief. He has that ability too? Robert laughed at the surprise of his friends. He had been made to fall asleep several times with just one swipe. I don't know what spell Kang read. But Robert said nothing.
"Well, good then. At least, Vivian and her group won't be anything, either" Dean said.
"What do you mean?" asked Robert astonished.
Finally Dean says how Yoshi and Yabie reacted after Vivian's operation. How they got away and didn't want to interact with Vivian anymore.
"So Kang, my feeling is that you have to be careful of them. I don't know what Yoshi's keeping. But I think he knows something. And that might not be a good thing."
Dean conveyed the thoughts he had saved some time ago. He knew the City Chief and Yoshi as good individuals. So after seeing Yoshi's reaction, even if it wasn't said, Dean could tell something was wrong about Vivian and her group.
"From our interactions that were only a few times, the group was quite cunning. His mother even traded Vivian for food. He told the girl to help us. But Kang refused. He doesn't want any spies in his place" Robert said.
"So Kang had noticed it too. Thank goodness," said Dr. Chandra.
"But what about his family? They must have remembered that your Vivian was brought in for treatment" Indra asked.
"Yes Kang. What about the other women there?" ask Robert.
Kang touched Robert's forehead again.
"You erased their memories too?" ask Robert unconsciously.
Kang nodded without any hesitation. He still believes in his duty to guard the tomb. Letting Vivian's group freely pass through the valley and come to its place, it was tantamount to giving the other party a chance to know his secret
???
The others looked at Kang with all sorts of thoughts. Didn't expect the dragon man to be able to do such a thing. What if it was done to them? It's hideous! It's better not to offend Kang like this.
"Forget about it. Kang has it handled." Robert turned his attention.
"Now what has to be decided is, do you agree that we follow the ship?" ask Dean.
Niken wanted to answer, but Dean was arrested. His hands were raised into the air, asking everyone not to speak first.
"Learning from your experience of sailing the sea, I will not force anyone to come along. After all, living in this city was not bad either. I'll set up some arrangements, if anyone wants to stay."
Dean finished his words and lowered his hand from the air.
"I want to stay!"
A voice surprised everyone. No. not his voice. Because it was clearly Nastiti's voice. What was surprising was his decision. So they looked at him in wonder.
"You sure?" ask Marianne in disbelief.
"Ohh, if you don't go, how boring this trip will be. No more friends to argue with" complained Alan.
"You don't like to argue. You like to make trouble." Knock Michael.
"Well, more or less like that. But only he would argue with me in a crowd. If he stays, won't our team be more deserted?" asked Alan innocently.
Alan grinned his tongue, mocking Nastiti. Nastiti takes a spoon on the plate and throws it at Alan. But Alan laughed happily.
Their friends shook their heads and sighed. It was the two of them who always liven up the atmosphere.
"You sure you want to stay?" ask Dean.
Nastiti nodded confidently. He's looking down deep.
"Alright, I'll arrange for you to stay in the dead city. Or in the city. You just choose. I'll talk to Yoshi and Yabie."
"No. I don't want to stay there.." Nastiti's words are not finished yet, Widuri cut off.
"So you want to stay here?!" ask Widuri not to believe it.
"It's good here. But there is no water source. How can you live without water?" timpal Michael again.
Nastiti looked Kang right in her eyes. Asked through his eyes. Kang's face may feel hot because of that intense gaze.
Kang touched his finger to Robert.
"You want Nastiti?" ask Robert not to believe it. Kang nodded.
Nastiti smiled, then looked down.
"I'm staying.." her voice was soft.
Niken stood up from his seat. Nastiti approached her and hugged her from behind. Face's happy.
"We have to marry them off before we leave. Congratulations, my dear.." said Niken happily.
Their other friends, so dumbfounded, had no idea what was going on. Only Niken and Robert know how Nastiti feels. And Robert was so shocked when Kang said he wanted Nastiti. Robert thought Kang's feelings for Vivian were deep enough. Turns out he was wrong. Kang was even able to erase the entire group's memories of him.
"Are you serious?" Sunil could not help his astonishment.
But Doctor Chandra just looked at Kang with a serious mimic of a father.
"Kang, here I am the oldest. When you say you want Nastiti, it's like you want my daughter. So I have to ask you a serious question" said Dr. Chandra.
The others nodded in agreement with Doctor Chandra's words. They set their eyes on Kang.
Kang looks confused. He doesn't know what these people want. Robert looked at it with questioning. Robert eventually realizes the limitations of Kang's experience of hundreds of years of living alone.
"Kang, if you want Nastiti, then you should marry her. Like Indra married Niken some time ago," said Robert.
Kang nodded.
"You want to marry Nastiti?" ask Dr. Chandra again.
Kang nodded confidently. He looked back at Doctor Chandra seriously.
"Do you know what it means to marry? You must care for and love her forever. Especially since we're leaving. So he won't have any friends who will support him. You're the one who should be the main supporter" Dr Chandra explained.
Kang nodded. His expression began to soften. He can smile now. Thought Nastiti was still down. Kang could see tears falling from the girl's cheeks, despite being blocked by her hair falling down.
"Kang, I know Nastiti is beautiful and kind. He is very understanding and loving. But are you going to put up with her disappointment? He's a super duper baffle. Your quiet house will be like the atmosphere of a meeting RT. It's a lot."
Alan's chatter made the serious atmosphere turn weird. Everyone turned their eyes to Alan. Including Nastiti. His wet cheeks were no longer hidden.
"Your sentence is ambiguous. Are you praising me or insulting me anyway?!" nastiti gregetan.
"Remove that snot, just talk. I don't want to serve a snot boy," ledek Alan.
"You!"
Nastiti grabs the spoon on Widuri's plate and throws it at Alan in annoyance.
"Nothing to...."
Alan dodged this time. The spoon flew into the courtyard. Cloudy ran after the flying spoon and picked it up. The spoon was returned to Widuri.
"Already... already...! You broke what I wanted to say just now" said Doctor Chandra.
"So, after marriage, you'll take Nastiti to your place?" ask Dr. Chandra again.
Kang nodded again.
"alright. I agree, on one condition," said Dr. Chandra.
Kang nodded quickly. He listened seriously.
"You should take him out occasionally. He likes to swim in the sea. He likes young coconuts on the beach. He likes sweet apples in the middle of the forest. He likes to see the sights. He also likes to be friends. So you have to take him occasionally to the dead city, or to the city, buy some of his necessities. Can you?" doctor Chandra asked very seriously.
Kang smiled broadly. He nodded in earnest.
Although sad if you have to leave Nastiti, but his friends are happy if he finds his love.
"If you hurt her, I'll curse you from Indonesia!" niken said relax.
The others simultaneously turned their eyes towards Niken. Can't believe he would say such a thing casually.
