The Asmara Jugar the Mafia
Dead Town

After resting for a day while recovering Coco's condition, they resumed their plans to head to the Black Tower. During the trip, Adriano seemed to think about what Ertan said yesterday. However, his determination has been unanimous to find the figure of Nenad.

“Are you sure, Gentlemen?” Ertan again asked the same question for the umpteenth time. The man's hand was agilely holding the steering wheel and deflecting it according to the direction of the road.

“Take it easy, Ertan. I'm not afraid of dying. No one will cry for me. Nor Francy,” Coco's sounding voice is getting weaker. Between pity and amusement, Adriano smiled and turned to the window. As much as possible he did not respond to the turmoil of Matteo's late friend.

“Who is Francy?” ask the Serbian driver again.

“Nobody, Ertan. Please, focus on driving,” admonish Adriano slowly.

“Alright, Gospodin. But we are almost there. You see that big wall up there?" point Ertan. "It was a border sign between Zlatibor and the Black Tower,” he explained while continuing to drive.

Adriano lowered his head a little, then looked intently at the wall building that extended to a dozen kilometers away. Likewise with Coco who was amazed. “What's behind that wall?” muttered.

“I don't know for sure either, gentlemen. However, many scary issues circulating around the dead city,” beber Ertan.

“Oh, yes? What like?” Adriano who began to be interested, immediately leaned his body towards the driver's seat.

“You probably won't like what I said,” Ertan started to hesitate.

“It's okay. Just say,” urges Adriano reassuring.

“Nobody ever knew what it was like in there, Gospodin. Whoever enters, never looks out again,” Ertan explained with a paled face. “It looks like I should stop here too. I can't take you any further,” Ertan hurriedly got out of the car, then opened the trunk and took out two backpacks belonging to Adriano and Coco. After that, the passenger door was opened. Ertan threw the backpack that she had just grabbed onto Adriano's lap just like that.

“Hei!” coco Protest.

“Already, it's okay,” Adriano raised one hand as a gesture to keep Coco calm.

“I can't be seen around here, or my face will be on their surveillance cameras. You should know, gentlemen. They will monitor anyone entering or simply approaching the Black Tower area. They must have tagged anyone who looks to be around here. No one should know the situation of this place. Now, please get out of my car,” the door while cupping both hands in front of the chest.

“Good, Ertan. I won't push you any further,” with a smile, Adriano got out of the vehicle and grabbed something from her pocket. A banknote in the form of a Serbian dinar he gave to Ertan without burden. “Your reward is in no way deducted from our initial agreement,”.

Ertan was wide-eyed and slightly trembling to receive the money. “I-this is too much, Gospodin,” he said staggered.

“It's okay. Use it for your kids' school needs. Your wife also seemed to be about to give birth,” replied Adriano lightly, making Ertan back in tracksiap and stunned for a while.

“Da-where do you know about my family?” cold sweat began to drench the guide's forehead.

“That's how I. Everyone I work with, I'll investigate his background first. You seem like a clean person, never dabbling in the black world. So, I can get information about you easily. Another case if the people I work with are people who are both dabbling in the black world. It will be a little difficult for me to scratch his background,” Adriano said with thoughts fixed on Don Vargas.

“Ka-you? Who are you exactly?” Ertan stuttered when she realized that Adriano was no ordinary person.

“Black Tigers?” rework Ertan.

“You'd better get out of here soon, because we're moving closer to the Black Tower,” tell Adriano still with his tone that looks so calm.

Without waiting for long, Ertan rushed into the vehicle and turned the wheel. He drove it at high speed, with Adriano and Coco in his eyes.

After the car was not seen again, then Coco observed the surroundings. The highway that was wide enough was indeed very quiet. Not a single vehicle was seen passing through the area. Coco thought for a moment. It made sense to him, because the position of the highway seemed to split the wilderness.

On the right and left are tall, dense trees, typical of sub-tropical cold forests. Coco checks her phone and sees the temperature detected by her. The temperature there ranged around ten degrees Celsius. He who was then wearing a t-shirt and denim jacket, had to close his clothes. “We are in the middle of nowhere,” muttered Coco.

While Adriano preferred to watch over the great wall that ran across, several hundred meters in front of him. The wall made of stone filled with moss just cut the big road, as if the highway was a dead end. “Nenad built his palace in the middle of the forest,” Adriano said slowly.

“How now?” Coco ruffled her waist and stood beside Adriano.

“There is no other way but to return to the city of Zlatibor, or to continue to advance through that wall,” replied Adriano flatly. “Did you bring your equipment?”

“Sure!” Coco opened a backpack that was larger than Adriano's backpack that she had been waiting for. He took a very small drone and showed it to Adriano. “This is my own assembled drone. Second to none in the world,” Coco said proudly while grinning widely.

“Then, where is the remote to move it?” ask Adriano.

“I don't need remote. All are available on my phone,” Coco raised her phone and returned to grinning. “Drone as small as this will not attract attention. They will think that this tool is just an insect,” chirp while operating the object.

Coco took the phone seriously for a while and linked it to the mini drone until the tiny spider-like object flew around and twisted above it.

“We wait for him to map this place. Sit there for a while,” Coco invites Adriano to pull over to the side of the road. They stepped a little deeper into the forest, then sat down on a large rock.

Coco then pulled out the laptop and turned it on. “Laptop is already connected with the drone earlier. We will be able to see what is captured by the drone camera through the screen,” he explained with a much more serious facial expression.

“Alright,” patiently Adriano waits until something appears from the screen. The drone was seen hovering among the trees, then moving down until it almost touched the ground. However, many times the drone stopped before drifting again.

“Is there an error?” Adriano was a little worried.

“No, Amico. In addition to the camera, my drone is also equipped with a mini metal detector. When he stops, it means he is finding objects with metal content or other types of metal in very high levels,” explained Coco enthusiastically.

“You mean?” Adriano was doubtful.

“It looks like Nenad is laying mines in every inch of this forest,” replied Coco.
