THE WEALTH SCAVENGER SYSTEM
EPISODE 11'S. STREET PERFORMERS

"Come fast! hand over your money, lest we lose our patience!" said Beno, the most feared thug in the market area.

"Please Bang! My mother is waiting for the medicine I want to buy, I promise after my mother is cured, I will definitely pay the deposit again" said Ahmad.

"Quick Togar! ransack his pockets, it's good for him, it's been three days still going free."

"But Bang Ben, pity too. Shouldn't we wait until her mother and sister are healed?" said Togar who still has compassion.

"What! Then, you want to replace him with a deposit every day!" togar.

"Isn't that also Bang? Where am I the money from? after all my income from Brother is only fitting for my family's living expenses."

"It's quick to ransack his pockets!" say Beno again.

"Don't Bang!" ahmad tried to run away.

But what is the power of Ahmad, only a 10-year-old little boy who does not have both hands pursued by two people who are large and muscular.

Ahmad was caught, he thrashed, trying to escape from the decapanTogar until finally he could be separated from Togar's decapitation which was not too strong because he still felt pity.

Then Ahmad ran again, screaming as loud as possible, hoping to meet Zero for help, but unfortunately, Ahmad fell down, his face and knees were rubbed by asphalt until bleeding and Ahmad sobbed.

The pain did not dampen his spirit to run, Ahmad then tried to get up and run again but this time Beni who managed to catch him.

Beni is angry that Ahmad is fighting and Togar is not working, immediately hold it and ask Togar to find a cloth or anything important to be able to clothe Togar's mouth and also ask Togar to find a rope to tie Ahmad's legs.

Hurry Togar! Lelet is you too! If you don't want to work anymore say! Let me find another assistant!"

"I-iya Bang, just a moment Bang, I'm looking for it first" said Togar as he ran.

Beni who was furious with Ahmad then said, "The brash snot! Don't try to run and fight me! You think you can run from Beni hah!"

"That bang, geez! please let me go, I have to go home, hiks..hiks," Ahmad heard crying again.

"Sick Bang, my leg hurts," Togar groaned as he rubbed his shoulder against his cheek to wipe away the dripping blood, while the wound on his knee also spewed a lot of blood but Beni remained unconcerned.

Togar returned with rope, cloth and betadine, and wanted to treat Ahmad's wounds. Togarpun wiped the blood on Ahmad's cheek to make Beni angry.

Togars! What the fuck! Instead of doing your job, clean the wound. Quickly tie him up!" beni said out loud.

"For a moment, Boss, see the wound is bleeding a lot, what if the wound gets worse and the infection is not cleaned" said Togar who continued his task of wiping blood on Ahmad's leg.

"Yes here are the rope and the cloth, from now on you I fire! Just work with him."

"No boss, I-yes I'm working on!" said Togar in fear while Ahmad was still grimacing in pain.

"Bang Togar, please don't tie me up Bang, pity my mother and sister," asked Ahmad to Togar who was a little kind.

Beni immediately gagged the mouth of Ahmad who had been talking continuously. Ahmad shouted before the cloth entered his mouth.

Zero heard the sound of a faint scream, he seemed to know the voice but Zero still thought who and why there was a voice of a boy screaming.

Now that Ahmad was helpless, Beni asked Togar to take him to the headquarters. There were some people who saw it but they instead went to avoid it out of fear.

Indeed, residents around already know and know the cruelty of Beni. He would not hesitate to hurt those who tried to fight him.

Beni actually has many men but today he happens to be traveling alone with Togar. Although only two but they also did not dare to help Ahmad.

Zero who had heard yelling tried to find by walking towards the origin of the sound, yes he was sure it was the voice of Ahmad, the screaming child earlier was Ahmad.

Running with his sack, Zero heads towards the dispensary but finds no one on the street. Zero also chirped, hoping to see Ahmad but still the same, Ahmad was not there.

Zero who was curious, continued to walk to the pharmacy, there he asked the guard and owner of the pharmacy, "Mbak?"

"Yes, how can we help you?"

"Sir, did a disabled child not have both hands, buy medicine here?"

"Oh...Dek Ahmad huh?"

"Yes, Ahmad."

"Today there is no Mas, two days ago he just came here to buy medicine for his mother. What is it you're looking for Ahmad?"

"So he said he wanted to come here, but why isn't there?"

"Maybe it's not Mas and maybe he went somewhere else."

"No, I'm sure he's going this way. Yes yes Ma'am, I will try to find him. Thank you, Mother."

"Yes, you're the same."

"Where are you Ahmad? why don't you go to the pharmacy? What the hell is going on with you? Hopefully nothing will happen to you" monologue Zero as he continues to step back into his place.

Suddenly his eyes looked at a sandal that was lying, "This is the sandal that was used by Ahmad?" monologue Zero.

Then Zero picked it up, she noticed the slippers again as her eyes looked around. Zero looked at the drops of blood on the asphalt, then he crouched down, noticing the blood was still fresh.

"Don't...Ahmad's hurt!" monologue Zero as her eyes looked around the place again.

Zero saw the pair of flip-flops he was holding lying in a different direction, then he picked them up. Inner Zero said, 'This is Ahmad's heart.'

"Ahmadis... Ahmadis! Where's you!" yelled Zero as he continued walking looking for her.

Zero asked the person who passed by there but they just shook their head. Then Zero saw that there was a tire patch at the intersection, then he approached him and asked, "Sir, ask? Did you see a boy around the age of 10, disabled not having both hands, being around here?"

"Oh...The Ahmad, the traveling peanut merchant Dek?"

"Yes sir, I'm worried that anything will happen to him. This is what I found there," said Zero, pointing to the direction where Zero found the sandal used by Ahmad.

"Biasalah Deck, if you do not pay the deposit, most are brought with you by Thugs Beni and Togar."

"What deposit sir?"

"All of us especially street vendors, hawkers and street buskers are obliged to make deposits to Beni and friends, every day. If not, do not expect to be able to sell or snack in this region again. If the fight will get punishment from them and the money will run out they will take the Deck."

"So you see, did Ahmad take them?"

"Yes Dek, but that's it, no one dares to go against them. Beni and Dek's ruthless men, we're afraid they'll hurt our family if they try to help the poor boy."

Zero shook his head, why would anyone not be compassionate towards a child like Ahmad. However cruel Beni and his herd, Zero is not afraid, he must be able to help Ahmad.
