The Tippingback of Rania's World
Episode 125 - Covered Case

Two days before Rania stays with Qiandra on the night of the full moon.

"What did you say?" qiandra asked in an angry tone.

"Based on young people do not know manners. I said earlier, if this hit-and-run case can not continue. The evidence is very little," said the thick-bodied police.

"Less evidence? That black box car's there. There is also CCTV footage. What more evidence is needed?" Qiandra's up against a cop named Namrud's.

"Which parent, after all, gave his son the name of the cruelest king in history?" thought Qiandra inwardly.

"Yes, you think to yourself. The CCTV at the corner of the road was just recording vehicles that were traffic. Indeed, at that time the suspect's car through the road, but it does not record the incident directly," replied the Police Officer.

"Continue recording the black box was also unclear. They hit something. But there were no screams of pain from someone being hit. Does that mean he hit a girl?" namrud.

"Whenever he fainted or was seriously injured, sir," Qian said, holding back his annoyance. If only they were the same age, Qiandra would have slapped the man from earlier.

"You want to do a CT scan? If indeed you have been hit, your body must have a scar. Anyway, why didn't your family report the hit-and-run case? Though you are a great man" replied Namrud.

Qiandra let go of her breath with her anger. He must remain calm, so that the authorities will continue the investigation of this case.

"Sir, from the beginning I reported a hit-and-run case. Who thought that they wanted to kill the Austeen family's only daughter, but it was wrong. I still have a complete copy of the black box, the recording you have must have been cut into pieces" Qiandra explained undaunted.

For a moment, the police face looked pale. But then he could master the atmosphere.

"How can we believe that the footage you've got is real from the black box. You can edit it yourself, right?" satirize the police.

"Geez!" grumbled Qiandra in heart.

"Where did the police and investigators handle this case yesterday? Who told you to cover up this case?" yelled, Qiandra was upset.

"Bad bastard! Hey, take care of your attitude. This is the police station" Namrud ordered.

Actually, absolutely no one bribed, so that the case was covered. The police officer named Namrud just wanted a big case that dragged the Austeen and Ansley family to be finished soon, and he got an award from the police agency.

"Excuse me for a second, sir," a young, low-ranking policeman, came to see Namrud.

"Yesterday we received a report of a missing child, an old High School named Rania Putri. It happened a year ago. This corresponds to the reports of this hit-and-run case. And just entered the report again, if Rani Putri has been declared dead, but her school data is still active until now" reported the young police.

"That can't be evidence. They can make their own data" replied Namrud.

Qiandra clenched her hands at Namrud's words.

"But, Sir. Some intel has been investigating the alleged TKP site. On the night of the incident there was heavy rain, so if there was an accident, the blood of the victim must have been carried immediately by the water," said the young police officer.

"But from the results of the investigation using special materials dripped onto the asphalt road, it still shows the remnants of human blood left there. Maybe we can check his DNA to find out who the victim is. So far, we have not found the body of the victim" the police said.

"Hmm. interesting! This young policeman can't just be ruled by his boss," Qiandra thought.

"Yes... Yep... Just continue the investigation. Make sure that this is not engineering" Namrud said in an annoyed tone.

"Sir, there's another new report" another young policeman exclaimed, carrying an envelope with files.

"What else?"

"One of the lake guards, claimed he saw the collision, while searching for the missing scout victim. He used to make the report, but then the case was closed just like that" replied the young police officer.

"Yes, finally. I just have a good lawyer to deal with this matter" Qiandra thought.

...🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺...

"Did you still not find Mr Gregory's whereabouts?" ask Qiandra.

"No, Miss. Reportedly, he and his wife fled to England, since the case of bribery to state officials was exposed" Wilson said.

"Police must cooperate and have permission from the British consulate to investigate this matter" Felix added.

"Ah, so Qiandra is also investigating her family," Rania muttered inwardly.

"What's wrong, Miss Rania? You kept looking at me" whispered Felix.

"A, anu. There's nothing."

Rania turned her face in shame to be caught watching Felix who was increasingly glow up. The young man is now increasingly smiling and wearing casual clothes.

I don't know why Rania's heart was a little envious. Without mom and dad, Qiandra is much more successful in managing her home and company than she is. Though he knew, the Qiandra had also fallen.

"Rania, tonight you accompany me to the gala diner with the tourism investors, yes. After that you stay here. Remember, right? It's a full moon tonight, you know."

"All right" replied Rania.

As per the agreement, after returning from the gala dinner, Rania was staying at the Austeen family residence with her father's permission.

"Rania, you brought the bracelet, right? Is there no special ritual for the magic spell to escape us?" qiandra asked while wearing pajamas.

"I-I don't know either. The one reading the magic book is you" replied Rania.

"Then, how about we light a lavender scent candle, then read the symbol on the bracelet before going to bed. Don't forget, the bracelet will be worn later" Qiandra suggested.

"By, too," said Rania.

The two of them then carried out a simple ritual as they went to sleep. But somehow, Rania's feelings are getting more anxious. He sent an oesan to Audrey.

"If you want to know more about the world of black magic or occult science, Mikko is the right person to ask. Because Mikko's late mother, was also dabbling in such a world" Audrey replied again.

"Eh?" Rania was surprised to read a reply from Audrey which was so unexpected. "Why did Mikko cover this up?" thought.

But the drowsiness that attacked Rania, made him forced to stop the online chatter.

By midnight, the full moon is illuminating the dark side of the earth. Everyone is asleep too.

"Uh... Uh...Aeckk!"

Rania felt someone strangling her very strongly. Still half sleepy, Rania also fought a figure she had not seen clearly.

"Who are you? Get your hands off my body" exclaimed Rania while focusing.
