Murder In The Old Castle
249. Case Review
Reno parked his car in front of Dimas' residence. He hopes to meet with his co-workers later that afternoon to discuss the contents of the fifth puzzle he received. They have two days before the killer executes his target. Reno hoped that this time it would get a bright spot. This case turned out to be not as simple as imagined, because it involves several people who have their own alibis.
He knocked on Dimas' door, but unfortunately the knock was unrequited. Reno didn't see Dimas' car. Most likely, his co-worker is out. He tried to reach us by phone, but Dimas's number was off. Suddenly he felt anxious. He knew Dimas was a little emotional and reckless. Feelings of worry arise just like that, just in case the co-worker acts out of coordination.
Reno walked back to her car feeling a little disappointed. He decided to return to the office immediately. Inevitably, he had to try to solve the mystery alone. Soon he entered his room, reopened the archives relating to the murder of Daniel Prawira. He began to sequence events since the first time the famous director was found dead in the toilet of the film studio.
He looked back at the photos of Daniel Prawira lying on the bathroom floor, with a cord around his neck. Forensic data revealed that the attack was carried out suddenly, probably when the victim had just come out of the bathroom. In Daniel's hand was found a piece of paper inscribed with a riddle, a clue to uncover who the next victim was.
Inside Daniel's office, an insurance policy worth hundreds of millions of dollars was found, as well as a strange greeting card that was not known who the sender was. During this time, it was known that Daniel was a widower who had no children. His entire estate fell into the hands of Margaret Prawira, who later became known to be a false name. Margaret Prawira is Anita Wijaya.
In the murder of Daniel, there are 10 people who still survive in the studio. Three of them were removed from the list of suspects, having already been killed, and one is still under police protection. Now, leaving seven suspects that he must examine one by one. He hopes to find clues from the remaining 7 suspects.
The second murder occurred to Anita Wijaya, a young artist who had a close relationship with Daniel Prawira. Reno suspects that Anita was murdered because of Daniel's high-value inheritance. The young girl died hanging from Daniel's durian garden in the city limits. The clue obtained from Anita's murder is the Silver King chocolate pack, just like the chocolate pack found in the previous murder. Inside Anita's mouth was also found a lump of paper containing clues about who the third victim was.
The third victim is Ollan, an artist manager whose name is also quite well known in the entertainment world. Ollan is the only survivor to escape the assassination attempt, as Reno and his friends move quickly. The gleaming man was in Henry Tobing's villa, when the killer infiltrated the villa to finish Ollan off. It seemed, the assassin already knew the intricacies of the villa well. Not surprisingly, because the villa is often used also for the party of the artists.
Ollan is currently hidden in a village famous for its awesomeness, Kampung Hitam. Here, Ollan is entrusted to Raymond Brothers, whose name is no stranger to the police. Since Ferdy's case, Raymond Brothers has now become a police partner, with the return of their old cases bleached.
The fourth victim was Renita Martin. The young woman died in her home, with several fingers cut off. In addition to being killed, apparently there were others who were also victims. To date, Rani, Renita's younger sister, and Niken, who is in charge of overseeing Renita, also disappear. There are no important leads on this case.
Reno glared at the archives of the victims as well as the suspects. He still has not found a correlation or common thread from each of these suspects. Each has a different personal life. The only common thread that connects brands is entertainment. Yeah, all those suspects are moving around in the entertainment world. Almost all of them are famous, except for a few names that do serve behind the scenes such as Widya, Riky, and Thunder.
Reno sighed. He had to put these puzzle pieces together from the beginning. The first step he did was to call the couple Rianti and Henry. This was the second time the couple had been called, after the first call regarding the villa where Ollan had come close to being finished off. In order to shorten the time, Reno did not take a complicated procedural path. He just called Henry and Rianti, then made an appointment at a place to eat, so that the atmosphere was not so formal. Reno needs to approach personally. Reno chose Alamanda Cafe, a cafe that serves delicious and contemporary food, visited by many people.
He immediately called Henry to make an appointment. At that time, Henry was driving to Kampung Hitam to pick up Ollan. Deringan mobile phone surprised him, so soon he picked up the call from Reno.
"Yes Sir!"
"Can we meet at Alamanda Cafe this afternoon? There's something important I want to talk to you about" Reno said.
"This fellow? Wow, very suddenly, sir. I'm sorry, sir. I have a job to finish this afternoon. How about shifting the time to 4 o'clock?" bargain Henry.
"Hour 4? Alright. But I hope you're on time!"
"Well Sir!"
After contacting Henry, Reno now intends to contact Rianti. He intended to talk about a threat paper that might be aimed at Henry and Rianti.
At that time, Rianti was in the salon to change his appearance. He deliberately dyed his hair and changed his hairstyle, so that he was barely recognizable. Rianti stared at himself in front of the mirror proudly while smiling to himself.
"What do you think, Jon?" rianti asked Joni, the hairdresser.
"Mbak Rianti looks ten years younger. Just beautiful, Mom!" praise Joni.
Rianti's phone was placed in a bag, so he did not hear much when Reno made calls to him many times. After being satisfied, self-nurturing, Rianti took his bag, finding the phone in the bag vibrating. He immediately raised when he found out that the one calling was Reno.
"Yes Sir. I'm sorry I didn't hear you when you called" Rianti said.
"Begin Mbak Rianti, can we meet this afternoon at 4 at Alamada Cafe? There's something important I want to talk to you about" Reno said.
"Hour 4? Can it not, huh? I'm trying to do it sir! Hopefully there are no clashing schedules" Rianti said.
"Help come because this is so important!"
"Well Sir!"
Rianti felt a little troubled. What important thing would Reno talk about? He immediately finished his business at the salon, before he left the place feeling anxious.

Ollan was agitated inside his own house. Right now, Raymond was out for a while to buy medicine for him. The front door was locked to prevent him from escaping. While the back door is also in the padlock with a small padlock. Ollan was fed up with being like a prisoner. He started not living in that house.
Quietly, he searched for utensils in a cupboard near the kitchen. He had seen one of the Raymond Brothers personnel keep a small crowbar in the closet he opened the closet, and found the crowbar in a special crate of carpentry equipment. He took it, then he tried to pry the padlock on the back door, but Raymond was not there.
Opening a padlock is not easy. Ollan almost desperately opened the padlock, let alone Raymond soon arrived.he tried extra hard, until at last the small size padlock was gouged too.Ollan gasped for breath while smiling full of satisfaction.
Click!
Suddenly he heard the sound of the front door opening. He immediately infiltrated out through the back door that had just been forcefully opened. Ollan fled to the banana garden behind the house. There was nothing he had brought, except his wallet and cell phone. The rest, he just ran through the banana gardens.
Raymond had no suspicions that Ollan had made it out of the back door. He placed the dizzy medicine Ollan ordered on top of the refrigerator in the living room.
"The medicine I put on top of the fridge huh Lan!" said Raymond.
Raymond didn't get an answer. The atmosphere of the house sounds lonely. For a moment Raymond was astonished, why the Ollan did not want to make his call. He knocked on Ollan's door, thinking he was sleeping in the room.
"Lan! The lan! Wake up! This is the cure" Raymond said.
Raymond's words were also unanswered. Of course, this made Raymond even stranger. Raymond doesn't usually behave like this. His suspicions deepened.he tried to open Ollan's room, apparently unlocked. How surprised Raymond was to find Ollan's room empty!
