THE PENANCE: THE PEBINOR
TP - 16

Nalesha and Zael were sitting by the pool in the backyard. Their feet went into the water. Both seemed serious.

"I can only see human memories while they are on the verge of death. By touching them, I know everything" Zael said.

"So you don't know for sure who the killer is?" Ask Nalesha.

"Actually the dead suspect two people close to him. He was very confident that the two men got him killed" Zael said.

"Who?" Ask Nalesha curiously.

"His wife and younger brother" Zael replied.

"They did that to get the inheritance? My guess can't be wrong. All humans are crazy about money. They even killed their own families." Nalesha turned her gaze in annoyance.

"I'm not too sure, but in the man's memory, there seems to be an affair between his wife and his biological sister. Maybe that's why the two men killed the man so that the two of them could be together forever" Zael said.

"Your thinking is very old-fashioned, maybe the affair is just a small part of the reason they killed. Still the main reason is money, I guarantee it" Nalesha said.

"But the man still loved his wife and loved his sister even though he had known the affair for a long time. Even after the two confessed, the man still forgave. Is the human race that good?" Ask Zael.

Nalesha seemed to think. "Not all men are good, nor are all men evil. You'll find all kinds of people in this world."

"There is a saying that once he cheats, he will continue to cheat. Either having an affair with the same person or with a different person" Zael said.

Nalesha folded both hands in front of the chest. "I agree with that saying. If I were that man, I would never forgive them."

"What if we act a little?" Zael looked at Nalesha.

"Acting?" Nalesha seemed to think.

After Farhan's death, Faidan took over Gumelar Group two days after his brother's funeral. The employees looked at each other as they saw Faidan enter Farhan's private room and sit in his great chair.

"It's so sad, that night we all had dinner with him at the restaurant next to this building."

"Oh, yeah." Febrian nodded his head. He recorded all the reports.

"But, Sir...." Ripan seemed to want to say something in doubt.

"Tell me, sir. This is to solve the murder case we are investigating" Febrian said.

"Actually I'm not good at saying this, because Mr. Faidan has just taken over the company, but Mr. Faidan and Mr. Farhan often fight," Ripan said.

Febrian. "There again?"

Ripan. "That's all I know, sir."

Febrian and Ripan shake hands. "Thank you for the cooperation."

Febrian wanted to see Faidan, but she had to make an appointment first.

Irfan looked upset. "Miss, we're investigating the murder of your late superior. You should be working with us, as well as your new boss who is his own younger sibling."

The woman looked sad. "I'm sorry, Mr. Police. I'm just following my boss's orders."

Febrian pulls Irfan's arm. He nodded his head to the woman. "Thank you for the cooperation, Miss."
