Zack managed to shoot Ferdad's car glass several times until it broke. Ferdad avoided the shards and turned to the side chair. He shot again and managed to hit Zack's shoulder.
Mark stopped shooting, he hit Ferdad's car again.
"Damn it!" Ferdad shot towards Mark.
Suddenly a car drove up the stairs. Ferdad snorted in annoyance. "What else is this?"
The car hit Mark's car. The man gasped and turned to the newly arrived car. Apparently Marla.
Ferdad shot Mark's car glass. Feeling cornered, Mark drove his car away from the place. Marla got out of the car and approached Ferdad.
"Sir, are you okay?" Ask Marla.
Ferdad kicked the windshield and came out through there. "There's someone on the roof of the building. Looks like I managed to shoot him."
They both went to the roof of the building. There's nobody there. There's only blood.
"He must have escaped" said Marla.
The police evacuate the bodies of two traffic policemen at the post, while Andy and Bayu come to the location of Ferdad and Marla. Bayu scratched his head that did not itch looking at the door of Ferdad's car that could not be opened.
"It looks like there's an iron and magnet over here that's causing the door to the car to not open, but I don't understand how it works, why it's like this" Bayu said.
Ferdad remembers when Zack called him. The man took the opportunity to install iron and magnets to trap Ferdad in the car so he could not get out.
"They're very intelligent" murmured Andy.
"I've taken a blood sample from the roof, please give the sample to the Lab." Marla hands the blood sample she found to Andy. He switched to Ferdad. "I'll take you home, sir."
On the way, the two engaged in conversation.
"I was really off guard, a few times I let them go and let them go. I don't know why they're so hard to catch. They are different from other criminals. I think I should resign from this case." Ferdad looks sad.
"Don't give up, sir. We have a strong team now. If I'm honest, I think Mr. Septiawan is expecting more from us. He should have known we'd have trouble handling it. The criminals are right, ARN alone cannot catch them, let alone us" Marla said.
Ferdad felt the same way. "She's been weird lately. Did he deliberately accept this mission for a promotion?"
"If so, he's cruel. We are the ones who have been promoted," said Marla sarcas.
Arriving at the apartment building, Marla looks at Ferdad. "There's something I want to say."
Ferdad who was releasing his seatbelt and going out also undo his intentions. He looked at Marla.
"I like you, Senior."
Marla's words did not surprise Ferdad. He knew it long ago, only he didn't want to hurt Marla's feelings, because after all he only loved his late wife, Rayna.
"You're a good girl, Marla. You can find a better man than me out there" Ferdad said.
Gaining a subtle repudiation, Marla pecks Ferdad's cheek making the man freeze for a moment. "Thank you for taking care of me as your junior."
Ferdad smiled faintly then rubbed Marla's hair gently.
