Edward immediately ordered all his men to pursue Bayu who had been brought by the police. No matter how, it was clear that he had to get the man right now.
"Good, Sir!" answer all of Edward's men at the same time. They all then immediately went using the dirt bike to chase the police car, also passing the cut road in order to catch Bayu.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry" Hemson said.
Edward's breath was wheezing as he held tightness in his chest. He then told the old man to leave, and forget what had happened. However, he did not thank Hemson for the information he had provided for being disappointed by the man's silence all along.
Ryder who was still there approached Edward. "You may punish Bayu, but don't kill him with your own two hands."
"No. I will definitely kill him, I will kill him like he killed my son" Edward said sharply
Ryder speechless. He could not let Edward do that or later the man would be imprisoned, then Bayu would just die without feeling the punishment for his actions.
He took a picture of Edwin on the table and showed it to Edward. "See your son, sir. Look at her sweet smile and her smiling face. I'm sure if he definitely doesn't want to see your hands covered in blood."
Edward remained silent. Both of his originally burning eyes now appear to hang cloudy. "No, he would have calmed down if his father had already taken revenge on that dog*an. That's why he showed up and gave us a clue about the room." His voice began to shake.
Ryder shook her head. "Of course you have to take revenge on him, but that doesn't mean taking his life." He spoke sharply. "If you kill him, then he will instantly die without feeling the suffering that your son has done. And he also does not feel how the pain that you have been feeling. Do you want it like that?"
Edward gasped, Ryder's words instantly made his chest rustle and felt like a slap that made him wake up.
"Punish him with pain, and let him languish in prison for life. That's what he deserves" Ryder said.
Edward nodded his head. He then approached Ryder and hugged the man's body making Ryder gasp in shock.
"Thank you, Mr. Ryder. Thank you for making me aware, I owe you a lot" Edward said softly. He then let go of his embrace and patted the two shoulders of the man with gratitude.
Ryder nodded. "Don't thank me. You once said that you consider me to be your own son, right? That's why I also consider you as my own parent."
Edward's two eyes glazed over, he was moved by what Ryder had said. He hugged the man again gratefully.
Meanwhile, elsewhere, Vano and Via are watching a viral video at the moment, which is about the arrest of a criminal and also the discovery of a human skeleton in a factory in the village of Halyu.
"Have you contacted Yara and Zafran, Mas?" ask Via anxiously. His feelings became worried when he saw what was happening in the village where his daughter and son were.
Vano shook his head. "Later I'll call them, I hope they're okay." He also felt anxious.
After watching the video, Vano immediately contacted Zafran to ask how his son was doing. Do not forget to ask the news of Yara and Ryder as well, as well as the creepy events in the village.
"Hello, Zafran" said Vano when his phone call was answered by Zafran.
"Assalamu'alaikum, Dad. It's me Yara."
Vano heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Yara's voice, he then turned the phone call into a video call.
"Wa'alaikum greetings, dear. How you doing, are you okay?" ask Vano.
"Thank God I'm healthy, Pa. How are you and Mom?" ask Yara later.
Vano then said that he and his wife are fine and Zayyan is out of the house.
Not long after, Via came and joined them. He immediately asked the news of his two children with anxious faces, also about the problems that occurred in the village.
"Mama and Papa don't have to worry, thank God we're all fine" Yara replied. He then told me about what was going on in the village at the moment.
Zafran who was also beside Yara just smiled looking at her parents. He also advised his brother not to tell their parents about his current situation.
Yara then said that Ryder was busy taking care of the case that was involving him, even involving the man's factory. He was certain that Ryder would be very tired by now.
"Your mom talked to Ryder's mom all night, and she said she'd propose to you when you got back here" said Via with a bright smile, and Yara also smiled when she heard him. "Have you talked about this to Ryder?"
Yara nodded. Then he told me about everything Ryder had said about marriage, and he also said that the man was ready to get married as soon as possible.
Via and Vano were thrilled to hear Yara's story. Now they believe that Yara really loves Ryder and is ready to marry her.
After finishing telling a long story, their video call stopped because it was in Maghrib time. Yara rushed to invite Zafran to enter the house to be able to perform prayers, after which she will only return to treat her sister's legs.
At the same time, Ryder also reached the place and was immediately greeted with a warm smile from Yara. His tiredness instantly evaporated upon seeing the woman's smile, then he rushed inside the house as it was called by Yara.

In the evening, Ryder and all of them are seen gathering at the house that Yara is occupying. Tonight was the last night the medics were on duty in this village, and their last day was filled with events that deeply shook everyone.
"I definitely won't forget what happened today. How could there be such an evil human being?" screeched Lewis in an inexhaustible manner. "That means the one who chased you that night was him too, Zafran?"
Zafran. "really. If I hadn't escaped that night, I might have been buried with the skeleton."
Yara directly hit Zafran's arm when she heard his sister's words. "Don't say that, Zafran!" He stared hard.
Zafran directly whinyesan. "Sorry Mom, I'm just kidding."
Yara shook her head while sighing heavily. He then remembered the Director's message that had to be conveyed to everyone.
"Oh well, the Director called me and said that tomorrow will come to pick us all up. Tonight he said he and others had departed from the city so early in the morning had arrived here. He had also heard the news about what happened in this place, so he decided to move quickly to pick us up" said Yara.
Everyone nodded in understanding. They are happy because they have completed the task well in this village, although they feel a little sad because they have to part with the villagers.
"He also advised us to be careful with what happened, and not go anywhere before he arrived in this village," continued Yara later.
The people in the hospital were also worried about the problems that occurred in the village, because if something happened to the medics they sent, then they were the ones who had to take responsibility.
"Then come back tomorrow with Yara, Zafran. All the problems are done, so go home and rest until your wounds heal" Ryder said.
Zafran smiled as he nodded his head. "Then, what about you? Aren't you going with us?"
"No, I have to sort things out here first. After that we just went there" Ryder replied.
Zafran and the others nodded in understanding. Ryder has a lot to solve because of the problems, but thankfully the criminal has been arrested.
"Go back first, Yara. I have to get the job done here, so that when we get back here things will improve and there will be no more similar crimes."
