Rio saw the graffiti on the white board in front of him, Tony had already compiled some clues to their case, the photos of the victims and the evidence, only the face of the unknown killer, arranged in such a way as to facilitate their research.
"So it's all like serial murder huh? Interrelated like that?" Tony asked, Rio leaned his shoulders towards his chair.
"Heh it could be, but, what is Irsan's relationship with the first two victims, if with Rika there is indeed little connection because of joining the same country club, which is the same, but what does that have to do with the package that was sent for him?"
Tony observed a piece of receipt paper that was put into the plastic of the evidence in his hand now.
"This is from Jodi, this man was found dead last month while fishing in the middle of the sea, he said anyway because of heart disease, hmm"
Rio took a deep breath.
"These people are related, but what is the relationship? That's what's missing"
"Tomorrow morning you try to go to the Jodi victim's residence, find out what they know about the package sent to Rika, who knows they know it" Rio continued.
Tony nodded "okay, it's just accessories here" he pointed to the receipt paper in his hand.
"Well, I suspect something is bigger than accessories, where there are people who will kill just because of ordinary accessories"
Hearing Rio's words, Tony seemed to wake up, he looked at Rio who was already staring at him with big eyes.
"You mean, it could be.."
Rio nodded "well who knows"
While the two were still busy guessing and thinking, Anna approached with a sheet of laboratory paper.
"Rio, the result is out" the long curly-haired sweet girl handed the paper over to the hand of Rio who had already stuck out in front of her, shortly after reading it, submitted the report to Tony.
"This is what Rio?"
"That sparkle, somehow but according to Cody that more than half of the bag is not all real diamonds, and it's true"
Anna continued.
"Fifty grains there are only five that are real diamonds, each diamond there is a trademark of the seller and guess who owns it"
Rio and Tony looked at Anna closely, waiting for the sweet girl to continue her words,
"Just shut up, let's guess"
Rio stared intently at Anna and touched the young girl's forehead "let's not make people wait"
"Aww Rio's sick"
Anna pouted, Rio was indeed a bitch, she thought as she could not make her comrade follow her game.
"You guys aren't cool, Rio you should have guessed donk"
Rio raised a pile of files about to slap on the girl's shoulder but Anna dodged the quick "ichh"
Anna smiled amusedly "hehehe, this" Anna handed him a piece of card that had been in the pocket of her lab coat ever since.
Rio and Tony looked at the card at the same time.
"What'sthis? Glow and Shine co? What'sthat?" Ask Tony.
Anna held her breath looking at the two young men in front of her, she was a bit annoyed actually, both of them should have said something more than what the word was, why could it not know? Or just pretend? He frowned his forehead.
"You'll never have a boyfriend so don't know what Glow and Shine Co is"
Rio and Tony looked at Anna, both of them shaking at the same time.
"Here's a pain" Anna.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*
Cody walked behind Rio, he just finished class that afternoon and Rio took him out to find information about their case.
"I'm khan is not detective Rio why invite me all, you are" his face looks a bit annoyed with the furrowing eyebrows because Rio invited him even though there is no new case, they entered one of the large malls in the city center.
"Nothing Cod, said Gus can invite you you also have finished college khan? I know it's gonna be a day off from idling at home"
"Who is unemployed, I know a lot of activities" protested Cody, both of whom stopped in front of a luxury jewelry store, Glow and Shine.
The shop that is very sparkling from the outside is in accordance with its name, the exterior and interior decorations are luxurious immediately visible even from a distance though, if you do not have a thick wallet, no one would dare to go there just looking around, not such a place.
A doorkeeper of the luxury jewelry store did not want to open the door for Rio, but when he saw the identification sign that Rio showed, the young man inevitably widened the door for him
"Please sir"
Rio smiled cynically "thank you"
A few shopkeepers looked at Cody and Rio with wary eyes, two people with very ordinary looks alone, their second clothes were also inconspicuous, at all.
Rio realized it until he flicked his hand to clean his jacket that was slightly dusted when he sniffed the copet this morning.
"Ach should've changed his clothes earlier" he whispered.
Cody with white t-shirts, jeans torn slang like a young man in general "he you didn't say you were going here earlier" whispered Cody back.
Rio stopped in front of the counter, the two beautiful women behind the counter greeted him kindly, saying, however, the store that is very famous for its very classy and expensive goods Glow and Shine co must show their maximum service, even though the customers who come are Rio and Cody though.
"Good day, how can we help you?"
Rio smiled, issued his identification mark "We are from the central police station, em, you guys, selling diamonds in the form of granules too well?" Asked directly without any trite ado, the two officers momentarily looked at each other confused by Rio's question.
"Em, what does it mean sir? You want to buy diamond granules?" Asked the woman in front of Rio.
Rio looked at the attendant for a moment, until he reached into his jacket pocket and took out a small clear plastic containing a small diamond.
Before long, Rio and Cody were already sitting in the manager room, a peer man with almost all-whitened hair, not because of his age because Cody still thought the man in front of him was not too old, he was dapper and the fragrance of his imported perfume clearly dominated his study, he saw a diamond with his magnifying glass carefully.
"Well, it's our company's, but, I've been a branch manager for two years, nobody's ordered a diamond grain like this for as long as I'm working, ' he said, and from the design it could be that it's been a while, we've had to look at our files to find out who ordered them"
Rio smiled, the man from his identification tag named August seemed to know what he wanted.
"He, you know our purpose here well?"
August smiled broadly, the man became the manager of such a large company was not without reason if not for his skill in recognizing people, especially customers who came to his store, he glanced with his large round eyes the appearance of Rio and Cody from toe to top of head.
Rio was an officer from the police force whose salary was no greater than a lower level supervisor private employee, he thought, and Cody, who seemed to be a student who might be so smart as to rely on scholarships, was, the young man even let his brown hair fall just like that on his forehead without any hair oil, his second appearance was very simple, it was very unlikely that the two of them would become one of the customers who would buy his jewelry, she said, which is where the price of their jewelry ranged from ten months of the young policeman's salary, he thought.
"Emm"
Rio flicked his hand, he understood what the man's gaze meant.
"OK okay don't be too clear that donk, so when can I ask for the ordering data, which you think already exists before you take office"
August frowned thinking.
"Emm, I have to ask my boss first, maybe he will allow, maybe not, you have to understand our client is from the upper class, even some important officials, he said, and from the beginning we had a policy of not giving personal information about who our customers are, this our business has a code of ethics each"
Rio looked at the old August, it seemed like the man was serious about what he said, even considering that he had brought the duty of a policeman there.
"You, no khan joking, we're from the police, and this isn't kidding either, we have a duty letter and everything, indeed you think we are carelessly heading to your place, you know, that's what it means?" Ketus.
August smiled broadly.
"Hehe's sorry sir, but I'm just an employee, all this belongs to our big boss, we're just running errands, please understand"
Rio looked at August again, long time ago, but he could not do anything, he and Cody looked at each other for a moment, until Rio took out something from behind his jacket pocket, his business card.
"Okay, all right, please well sir, call your big boss, and tell him that we, the police, need information, and then please, call me yah"
August received Rio's business card, he stood up as Rio and Cody stood towards the door, pointing at Cody who had been silent since.
"Who is this sweet child?"
Cody turned his back, smiling at August "eh I'm Cody Had.." a little forgot, Cody just changed his last name since the op had put his name on the family card, he was confused now whose name was.
"He, I'm Cody Gunther"
August frowned, although he could hardly believe it but he knew the name, knew it very well, swallowed his saliva roundly looking at Cody with big eyes "uh what? You, Cody Gunther?"
Rio pulled Cody's hand when the man had not yet let go of his hand, though he did not want to admit it but Cody made him anxious, he was anxious because Cody's charm could attack anyone anywhere, moreover, the man was a bit suspicious, he thought.
"Eh, come on, Cod, let's not stay on business for long"
Arrive at the parking area,
Rio opened his parked car not far from the elevator. He and Cody moved into each side, Cody could still feel Rio's eyes staring at him.
"What?" Cody asked, Rio stood up after opening his car door, looking at Cody while frowning his forehead.
"I remember your last name wasn't Gunther, when you proposed so it doesn't seem like it?"
Cody ducked in, before long Rio caught up with him and turned on the engine.
"Well how else, I don't really want to dispute the last name either, but it seems opa insisted, he had changed everything slowly, through his assistant sister Nina he changed all my documents, savings, savings, insurance, hmmh.." after thinking about it made Cody tired himself.
Rio smiled widely, turned the steering wheel of his Baleno sedan vehicle out the parking area of the building.
"Hehe to a person like your op, who seems like a very influential person, that last name is very important Cod, so having to change everything well, is really troublesome sich"
