" If so, we will trace the trail of Ki Jarong's, Ki Demang, does Ki Demang know of his whereabouts,?" ask Jati Andara.
" To this day, I do not know of his existence, it has been a very long time since he left this Kedawung,!" replied Ki Demang Kedawung.
" Did Nyi Demang know her whereabouts , ?" ask Jati Andara to Ki Demang's wife.
Nyi Demang just shook his head, without saying a word, his face was bowed staring at the floor, on the face that still visible lines of beauty despite being middle-aged, on the face, there was a stroke of sadness there.
" Well then, if no one can give us a clue, we'll start from Kedawung's pedestal, so we say goodbye to Ki Demang, because it's still daytime," jati Andara said again.
" Please, Ngger, we hope that many Anggers can find our daughter, safe," said Ki Demang.
" Hopefully, Ki Demang," said Jati Andara.

" What's up, Andara,?" ask Japra Witangsa.
" Look at that, " said Jati Andara.
While pointing to his right, Bekel Kenanga's son told him something.
" What, sis,?" ask Dewi Dwarani.
" You didn't see her, did you,?" ask Jati Andara back.
" No, we didn't see anything" replied Sari Kemuning.
" Look at the obvious, what's that hanging thing, then,?" ask Jati Andara again.
" Yes, Kembang Kedawung, because there are many Kedawung trees here," replied Dewi Dwarani again.
" Ahh, you all suck, that is a long cloth, belonging to a woman.

He took a long cloth that belonged to a woman, from a shrub under the Kedawung tree.
" Does this cloth belong to , Savitri Ki Demang's daughter,?" ask Jati Andara.
While the other three people just looked at the long cloth with various questions.
" We should not go back to Kademangan Kedawung to ask this," said Japra Witangsa.
" It should be so, we go back to Kedawung first to question this, only then do we continue this search," said Dewi Dwarani.
" We should not continue again, who knows in front of us get another clue" said Jati Andara.
" We should indeed question this cloth to Ki Demang only after his we continue the search again.
Finally Jati Andara relented and the four men returned again to Kademangan Kedawung .
Arriving there, Jati Andara immediately asked about the long cloth.
" Does this cloth belong to Savitri, Ki Demang ,?" ask her.
" Hehh, where did Angger get it, right,?" ask Ki Demang.
" In the pedestal of Kedawung, Ki Demang," replied Jati Andara.
" Right, Ngger, this cloth belongs to my daughter, Savitri, duh Gusti, where are you Nduk," said Ki Demang Kedawung.
He hugged his daughter's cloth while kissing her.
" Alright Ki Demang, if the cloth is indeed owned by Savitri, we will continue our search again, hopefully, tomorrow we have gotten a bright spot about the existence of Ki Demang's daughter,". jati Andara.
" Hopefully , Ngger," said Ki Demang .
Back the four people continued their search to find the existence of Savitri Ki Demang's daughter.
When the footsteps of the horse had left the courtyard of Ki Demang's house, and were walking on the streets of Kademangan Kedawung, suddenly the party was intercepted by a woman .
" Wait a minute, Ngger, auntie wants to say something" he said.
It turns out that the one who intercepted Jati Andara's entourage was Ki Demang Kedawung's own wife.
Ki Bekel Kenanga's son got off his horse and was followed by his three friends.
"Look, Ngger, actually auntie knows where Kakang Jarong is, '". said Nyi Demang Kedawung.
" Hehh, is it true Bi, why didn't you tell me back then,?" ask Jati Andara.
Looking left and right, Nyi Demang Kedawung said,
" Actually aunt was reluctant to say it in front of Kangmas Demang, aunty was afraid she was jealous," Nyi Demang reasoned.
" Alright Bi, now try to tell me where Ki Jarong is , Bi,?" ask Jati Andara again.
" While the aunt does not believe that the perpetrator of Savitri's abduction was Kakang Jarong, but here the aunt wants to say where she is" said Nyi Demang Kedawung.
" Yes bi, if indeed the aunt knows her tell us, let us look at the place, we must try to find the aunt's daughter" Jati Andara said again.
" Well, because according to the characteristics that have been mentioned Kawit, it is possible that it is Jarong's brother," said Nyi Demang.
He was silent for a moment, only then continued his speech,
" Now Jarong's brother lives in Mount Pandan, in the Matahun area," he explained.
" Hahhh, Mount Pandan, very far away it's , Bi,!" yang Jati Andara.
" It is a long way from here" said Nyi Demang Kedawung.
' Alright Bi, we'll be leaving soon, pray we can find Savitri as soon as possible,!" jati Andara said again.
" Aunty pray, Ngger, that you may find my daughter, save the way,!" nyi Demang.
Teak Andara and the others immediately jumped on the back of his horse, they immediately moved towards the east.
Indeed, a considerable distance must be passed by four people from Kenanga village.
Same distance if they have to go back to Pajang.
But the distance is quite far it does not dampen his fourth intention to visit Ki Jarong's residence.
The four of his horse spur quite fast even though the day has come late afternoon.
