The Angkara Murka
The Book of Tri Deshi Chapter Twenty Six
Affandi turned out to be hooked also with the logic built by his brother. He rubbed his daguny and weighed what Kardiman Setil had said.
"You're sure you saw him carrying a kris?" tanyakanya.
"Tucked in his back waist, Af!" kardiman Setil replied.
"But, brother hasn't said anything yet" Affandi said hesitantly.
"Ah, you are, Af. He's meditating, looking for clues. While he's doing that, we might get him now. What difference? We help Marsudi not without cause and reason. We believe there is a mysterious force that governs all of this, from the supernatural clues Marsudi received, to the clues I received. We are here as part of all this. Yes ‘kan, Af?"kardiman Setil reassured Affandi.
Affandi thought for a moment.
"What should we do?"sama later.
Kardiman Setil hits her thigh a sign she is excited and happy because Affandi finally shows her sense of trust.
"We follow the man. We ask about the keris, either well or with violence. We buy it if we need to. If he doesn't want to give you his keris, we force him. That means there's something with that keris."
"If it turns out that kris we get and brother says it's not the heirloom he's looking for?"
"Yes already ‘kan? What's the loss anyway? You never rob what? Or is the kindness of the imposter Obong village making you flabby? Thinking that there are good people in this world?"tease Kardiman Setil.
"Fuck you, Kar. You deliberately provoke my emotions and self-esteem," Affandi felt annoyed. "Well, we'll take that keris. Be careful if you see it wrong or you just want to look for a way to get the woman" threatened Affandi.
Kardiman Setil chuckled then walked off the bench, figuring out where the young man had gone.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
It seemed that the young man was also after traveling far away. He apparently headed to the public bathroom across from the restaurant and the inn. That means the man didn't stay and booked a room here. If so, of course he just went straight to his room, thought Kardiman Setil and Affandi. Both followed the man.
"Kar, if it's true ... If it's true that the person you saw was carrying a keris, he might not be just anyone. At least he has martial arts. What's he carrying around all ‘kan keris for?" affandi whispered as they walked in the back following the young man to a wooden building reserved for toilets and bathrooms.
Kardiman Setil chuckles back, "Now you're serious" he said satisfied. "I've been thinking, so it's better we just rob the guy, don't use all talk, we'll spend a lot of energy."
Affandi was silent, but he felt his pair of carambits.
...ΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩΩ...
Although wooden walls, it turns out that the long building toilet as well as the bathroom is quite clean and relieved. Soemantri Soekrasana did not know that there were two people following her. He was not aware that the keris Mpu Gandring tucked in his waist was sticking out and visible to the eyes of Kardiman Setil. He himself already felt itchy all over the body, wanted to take a bath and give himself.
Soemantri Soekrasana opens the bathroom door, locks it and worships gratitude as cold water flowing from the mountains washes away every inch of her naked body.
Kardiman Setil signals Affandi to guard the door of the toilet and bathroom. He was able to wash his hands and face. Affandi looked out and saw no sign of anyone coming. He went to the toilet standing up and peeing.
Kardiman Setil feels his skin is so fresh. He promised himself to take an all-out bath after seizing this keris and could get praise from Marsudi.
Suddenly from the reflection of the mirror he saw a body figure standing in the corner, behind the door. The figure was behind him. His clothes were red and he wore some sort of jar or cloth that wrapped around his lower body. What makes Kardiman Setil rather surprised is that the figure has a female-like appearance, including curves and hair that is partially as shouldered. After all, he understood very well how the shape of a woman's body. However, this is a male-only toilet, he thought.
His vision was a little blurry, watery, like a windshield of a raining car. Understandably, he had washed his face. Moreover, the situation outside and the lights in the toilet room is equally dim. He had to blink both eyes. That figure is still there. He immediately returned his body.
That figure wasn't there.
Nape is goosebumps. The feathers on his body stood up, bristling.
Slowly she put her body back and looked in the mirror. The body looks back. Kardiman Setil widens his eyes. His breathing faltered and his heart raced as he watched from the reflection of the mirror, the figure turned around, very slowly.
He turned the body quickly. That figure wasn't there. He didn't see anything.
He turned around again and found a woman's face in the mirror. His face was pale, as white as cotton. His eyes were wide, and blood flowed out of his eyes.
Kardiman Setil is surprised not to play. To his surprise, his tongue was muffled and he fell on the floor.
Affandi is now surprised to see his adoptive brother in such a position. He looked in wonder and half a whisper said, "Kar, what's wrong with you?"
Kardiman Setil saw it with a look of horror.
Affandi approached him, "You why, Kar? Don't mess around. We'll get this over with immediately" Affandi half-whispered.
Kardiman Setil still looked at Affandi with horror, but this time his index finger was pointing towards the back of Affandi.
"What's? What are you, Kar?" affandi said that he was increasingly confused and upset over the behavior of Kardiman Setil who thought it was strange. But still he turned around and looked in the direction that Kardiman Setil showed.
An ordinary wooden wall. There is a female figure in a kind of red kebaya dress. He stuck to the wall like a lizard, with his head down and his face looking up at him. His face was unusually pale and both eyes were draining blood. The figure slowly crept down like a slithering beast. Arriving on the floor, he crawled to Affandi who now fell down due to shock.
Affandi and Kardiman Setil held each other and tried to stand with difficulty. Only a few more times the red kuntilanak managed to touch them, both managed to get up and run out like two captives who escaped from prison.
