THE PSYCHOPATH'S SECRET
WHAT HAPPENED IN 1863?

CHAPTER 5

After the murder last week, Keanu paused for a while to avoid a police search. Although he was sure no one would be able to find him as the main culprit.

Justright.

Two years passed safely, the news of the murder that befell Gun's wife also did not get a bright spot. Because there is not the slightest evidence or fingerprint of the perpetrator left in Elissa's body. According to the police, Elissa's killer had planned everything in so much detail that he was able to hide himself and evade the investigation from their side very neatly.

Did Keanu just stop there? No. gabe. He was just waiting for time to get back into action.

On a sunny day, he was looking for work back at some store near a campus. Actually, he had been looking for work in several places for the past two years, but no one accepted him.

However, because he was lucky, Keanu got a chance to work as a waitress at a fast food restaurant that day.

At the restaurant, he will get enough salary for him to eat for one month. And because the owner has agreed to it, he is allowed to work from today.

And....

Keanu as a waitress restaurant ready to work. He does anything for his job. Such as cutting meat, washing it, then burning meat, and also washing the necessary baking utensils.

One day after a few months of working in a restaurant. On the night when the restaurant was almost closed, two old men came to the restaurant owner.

They were chatting casually about their lives now. Keanu who was preparing to go home was called the restaurant owner.

"Ken! Bring us grilled meat and two bottles of drinks!" exclaim the owner.

"Yes, boss!" sahut Keanu's.

He quickly prepared the meat he would serve. Slicing it thinly and arranging it neatly in a serving tray. Then he made a sauce out of the soy sauce and some secret condiments where they.

Once everything was ready, Keanu brought his boss' order to the front desk. Just when Keanu came, the three men were talking about the death of a married couple 15 years ago.

They were silent for a moment when the dish came. After asking Keanu to leave, the restaurant owner and his friend continued the chat.

DEG

Keanu's heart stopped beating. The death of a husband and wife? 15 Years ago? Is it about his parents?

Keanu was curious. While posing for a few restaurants, he tried to listen to their chatter.

"Well, you know what? Listen, the mayor's son-in-law killed someone by beheading him. And the head was deliberately left in the trunk of her husband's car."

"Are you kidding me? How could anyone dare to do such a thing to the mayor's family?" restaurant owner.

"yes too. You know for yourself, anything against them will lose their lives" replied the other.

"But, actually I still feel bad for Julian. He we sacrificed to save our lives from the mayor. Unfortunately, they also killed his wife" one of the men choked.

"Hush! Lower your voice, someone will hear!" whispered friend.

The owner of the restaurant poured the drink in his friend's glass.

"drink. Clear your mind. We cannot keep talking about the past that has passed. If anyone hears it and misunderstands it, you'll get in trouble."

"Yes. Just be grateful, we're alive now."

Keanu gulped with difficulty. He hears everything. And it all has to do with his father and mother. Julian and Levy. He nervously poured water into his glass. Then drink it with trembling hands.

After cleaning up, Keanu said goodbye to the restaurant owner.

"Emm, I'm done with everything, boss. I'm going home now" he said.

"Yes. Go home. Tomorrow don't forget, leave at eight" his boss replied kindly.

As Keanu stepped away, he heard a man ask about himself to the owner.

"He's your new employee?"

"Yes. The job was very good, so I immediately accepted it to work here," replied the owner.

"Ooh, good then. Young people today, rarely work hard. They only know to ask for money from his mother and father" said his friend.

"Yes. You're absolutely right."

...----------------...

Keanu was still thinking. What's with his parents. Why did the people in the restaurant mention his father's name. What does this have to do with the mayor?

While thinking hard, he walked back and forth in his room.

"I have to find out what exactly happened. Why do they call the mayor in the murder case of father and mother?"

KREGG....

The sound of the door of the room that had not been touched for a long time was opened. Keanu stepped in fearlessly for nearly 15 years, but he did not open the door.

Step by step his presence in the room was blocked by spider webs created everywhere. As civilians, both of his parents were quite respected in their village. Even they became village heads because of the wishes of the residents. Until the election of the mayor came, the residents also agreed to nominate his father to be their mayor.

However, for some reason on the day of the mayor's election, his father did not come as one of the candidates. Even a few months later, he was found dead in an accident with his wife. Whether it was intentional or an accident, at his old age, Keanu still could not understand.

For years, he heard from people's mouths that the deaths of his father and mother were purely an ordinary accident.

Until that time, the mayor of Jordan served as mayor without a vote. Because there is no other candidate to be chosen. Early in his career, Jordan Gun's father, tried to take the hearts of the population by spreading money as bribes.

SRETT

Keanu was looking for something that he himself did not know what he should look for in that place. Lots of stack of files and thick maps. Wiped the pile of files slowly. Very dusty.

"Huffff," Keanu blew it so the dust flew.

While dragging his eyes, Keanu hummed. A song his mother used to sing before she went to bed.

Opens the desk drawer. Many stamps. Then he saw a note. Apparently it is a record of the daily activities of the father. In the note, his father wrote that on December 26, 1862, he had received a dinner invitation from Jordan. Mayor now.

And after dinner, apparently his father and mother began to disappear. On March 26, 1863, their bodies were found in a ravine and in their car.

"Is this a coincidence? If it's true the mayor committed the murder of father and mother, Gun would know about it all. So she must have deliberately courted Rula just to get her wish."

Keanu thought again. He had to find out about his parents' case files first at the police station. He wanted to know if there were any other suspicious signs at the scene.

Before the afternoon, Keanu arrived at the police station. He met a policeman who was on guard.

"Sorry sir, may I ask you a question?"

"What about?"

"File the results of my parents' investigation first. Murder case, oh no. The accident in the ravine occurred in 1863. Can I see it?"

"Past investigation? 1863??"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Hm. That was 17 years ago? It doesn't seem to be able to. The file can't be given to just anyone."

"But I'm their son. What still can't? Please just... Can you, sir? I just wanted to see it, "Keanu tried to beg.

"Hmmm... Just a minute."

The policeman stood up and approached his friend. Then they talked with a soft. And after talking to his friend for a long time, the police approached Keanu again.

"alright. I'll get it. But promise. Just to see it."

"good. I promise."

Shortly thereafter, the investigation file was in Keanu's hands. He quickly checked the irregularities recorded there. But several times repeating his reading, there was nothing he could find.

"No suspicious signs? Did they kill mom and dad the way I thought?" thought in the heart.

After he finished checking everything, Keanu returned the file to the policeman sitting in front of him.

"Thank you, sir. I'm done reading it."

"What exactly are you looking for?"

"Aah. There aren't. I just want to know the story of their deaths. Because they both left me when I was a kid."

"Hm. Alright. I get it."
