Pulchritude Case
Page 07's

Minister Jimmy's death was long-tailed. It is true that Commissioner Arthur's allegation that his proud son would be dragged into the case. A few well-dressed men barged into Kevin's room without excuse. One of them is Attorney Jeffery, the most ambitious to drop his good name. All the way out of the big city just wanted to interview that crazy intelligence. No problem, Kevin will be happy to respond.

"I heard you were assigned to spy on him, right? If you may know, where were you at the time of the incident?"

"Yes, it was indeed my duty— that time I was in the hospital, a lifetime obligation that I had to do. Oh, it's so hard to live with one kidney."

Jeffery raised his eyebrows. "I've heard all about you, Mr. Kevin. Do you remember the incident where General Andreas died from the reckless actions of an intelligence member?"

Kevin smiled wryly as the prosecutor insinuated it. Well ... that's right, he's been reckless outside the rules. General Andreas is suspected of being the perpetrator of the murder of one of the Tammama in his office. Kevin was assigned to investigate the case, day after day the further he plunged into the problem finally bear fruit. Where Kevin intimidates the perpetrator with his actions that make Andreas confess. However, before he confessed his crime, they had a chance to fight. And that's the reason why Kevin lives with one kidney.

Kevin's actions reap the pros and cons, mostly protesting against him. However, the intelligence backing was no less remarkable than the protesters. They assumed that Kevin had killed her, but it was wrong. General Andreas who first attacked him, Kevin just tried to protect himself against the foul intentions that the man wanted to do to him. One of the killer monsters he has wiped out from the police world.

"Oh, so you're suspecting me because of that case?" Kevin chuckles. "Hm, just like this. If you don't believe me, go to the hospital and see the CCTV footage. You'll find me,"

Kevin tried indifferently by busying himself checking the sheets of paper stacked on the table. One of Jeffery's colleagues got a call from someone, they reported if the investigator found any other evidence that was unrelated to Kevin. It was quite embarrassing, but he was sure this man in front of him was hiding something.

"Alright, this time you're safe." whispered Jeffery, then they left the room.

"I'm always safe, you know?" he said with a half smile. He lifted his feet up on the table and leaned his head on the back of the chair.

Video footage from CCTV has him sabotaged by editing it. Minister Jimmy died at 11pm while Kevin was in the hospital at 1pm. Because the numbers 1 and 11 are in the middle of the number 12, Kevin took advantage of that by flipping the video in the opposite direction. So that the reflection between 1 and 11 or vice versa makes no difference. If they see it at a glance, they will be fooled. Incidentally the numbers on the wall clock in the hospital are not in the form of numbers in general or Roman. However, it only forms a straight line, so it makes it easier for Kevin to launch the action.

The supervisor in charge of monitoring CCTV has also been paid. Well, that's how Kevin works. In addition, he also uses others as a collision. Of course the public will ask who the owner of the gas tank in the narrow alley was. The investigators are looking for the owner, right? Automatically the owner of the gas tank that will be used as a suspect. After all, he was also suspicious by putting gasoline there. All of that will be traced further, like what his purpose is to store gasoline in the alley, where he gets it, what the gasoline is for and so forth. Hoho, Kevin you're really...

"Yes, Sir?" Kevin picked up the phone from Arthur.

"They've met you, haven't they? They don't suspect you, do they?" Arthur sounded worried.

"So calm down, Kevin can still handle it."

"Good." Arthur paused, "oh, yeah, Kevin. I've received reports that you've charged a prosecutor without concrete evidence. Do you want to embarrass me?" coxed.

"No, Sir. That's reality, I'm serious he's-,"

"Enough! Don't act weird, Kevin. Just focus on your duties, or I'll assign you a duty there. You gotit?"

Kevin breathed a long breath. "Yes, sir."

Arthur ended the conversation. He put his phone on the table in a rough manner. I don't know Kevin feels his boss has changed lately, he's always nagging. His threat weighed on Kevin's mind. Is it possible that all his actions are outrageous? No, Kevin thinks he's right. Teach the criminals in their own way. Of course, the main reason for reckless action is because the law in the country is very bad. Not in accordance with what has been written in the law or their oath. Justice in his country has been lost for a long time.

"You hear? It turned out that it was Attorney Dariel who helped Prosecutor Val get out of his case. Oh, he's very considerate, isn't he? Example of a big-hearted man, very suitable as deputy chief prosecutor."

"I agree."

Val squeezes the cup of drink, his face flushed red when he heard the conversation from the two people. She hated it when someone interfered with her affairs, even more so Dariel. Turns out he was the one who helped Val out of his case. Is this a strategy to steal the attention of the public? Val was getting on the black when she thought of such a thing. He stood up by pushing his chair roughly backwards.

"Thank you for your help." Dariel smiled at Floren.

Val entered the room without permission. His chest up and down looked at Dariel sitting leisurely in a chair. He walked quickly, then grabbed the mayor's boy's collar.

"So you're meddling in my problems? What's your goal, huh? Looking face?" cerca Val's.

Dariel pushed him, "you should thank me, not get angry like this."

"I know it's all your ploy to seek attention from the public. You used me for your benefit, didn't you? It's disgusting." scorned her.

"And you?" Val points to Floryn. "Paid how much are you the same son of a bitch?" he continued full of emotion.

"You could be sanctioned if you act like this, Prosecutor Val." Dariel. "Hm, but he voluntarily did this. Isn't that right, Miss Floryn?"

"That's true Prosecutor Val." Floryn came towards him. "It's all my will, Prosecutor Dariel just helped me a little in this matter. And also, you know? Someone would do anything for a loved one."

Val turned his head towards him, he raised next to an eyebrow. What Foryn spoke was not yet fully digested by him. Does this girl love Val? Oh, n-no. Terrible when he heard the word love, he threw away his face. While Dariel smiled faintly looking at the two.

"Now you've heard it for yourself, haven't you?"

Val held back his anger, he rushed out of the room. Everything is fake, you know? The prosecutor and the lawyer work together to make a profit. The accusation Val thought was true, Dariel took advantage of the opportunity to get the attention of the higher-ups. Golden moments like this should be used for the sake of dignity as an important point when the election of the deputy chief prosecutor next month.

It's good enough to get a good name for his involvement in exonerating Prosecutor Val. She was also the one who supported Foryn to become her lawyer, so Dariel took advantage of her a little. Moreover, the girl was crazy about the figure of Val Destavin. The world is a scam, right? Eh not deng, rather the world of symbiosis parasitism. Like a mosquito that sucks human blood.

"Forced Dariel, I'm sorry." Pamit Floryn, she's going after Val. While he was here, Floryn did not want to waste the opportunity to meet the person she admired.

"Stone stepping," murmured Dariel. A proud smile adorned his face.

The competition for that position is very tight. Between the two have points that are both equal. Dariel and Val are tough rivals for other competitors. Their name became the main option in the nomination of new vice chairman candidates. The higher-ups still had difficulty choosing one, they were so competent and hardworking. Yeah ... although a little dirty.

"This is all because of that weird intelligence!" Val kicked a chair in his room. "Dariel, you're sneaky too?"

"Work Val?" Floryn's in.

"Why did you come here? Go away, I don't want to be bothered by mosquitoes." he said.

The girl looked down. "I'm sorry to interfere in your business. Honestly I know this case from the media, then I-I,"

"What do you want to pay? Quickly give me your account number," Val said, she didn't want to hear anything from the girl.

"no need. Prosecutor Dariel has been-,"

"Take this, consider it a charity from a victim of defamation" he continued, slipping the paper in the hands of Floren.

"But-," Floryn twisted her body, she looked at Val's back who was away. "Oh, Prosecutor Val, even if you're a circus man, but I still like you. You're really my type," the girl's blooming.

Floryn was Val's junior sister during their college days. He had long admired her as a moor of the heart, despite always being treated harshly and coldly. However, the girl never got tired of chasing after him. Upon hearing the news of the case, Foryn immediately volunteered as a defense for Prosecutor Val, then she met with Dariel. In the end, they agreed to cooperate.

°°°

Someone shouted loudly from inside the men's toilet. He walked backwards in shock to see a shapeless corpse in the cardboard. One of them immediately contacted the authorities to evacuate her. It is suspected that the body is male and one of the students of the University of Exact.

The entire campus was shocked by the discovery of the body. He was killed by his own best friend by mutilation. Victim named Ricky, the mullet-haired man who often bothers Arlo, of course you remember. The atmosphere of the campus became tense and horror, as soon as the atmosphere there changed completely. The incident happened when Deline was about to go to the toilet as well. Because next to each other automatically he saw how the police evacuated the bodies of the victims.

"Oh," Deline surprised, she collided with Arlo who appeared suddenly.

"Deline?"

"Arlo, are you here?"

"Hm, I have business with Mr. Willy."

"You must have been -,"

"Yes, I'm sorry. Even though he used to bully me or annoy others, he was still my classmate." Arlo interjected, and he also said his condolences.

They walked along while discussing the case. Shaking, that's what the two are feeling. The perpetrator was so cruel as to kill Ricky under such circumstances. Allegedly the perpetrator lately often bicker with him, so it is likely because there is a sense of ingratitude he decided to end the lives of victims. This murder case was immediately closed by the campus in order to maintain its image. They were silent about the problems that occurred, even though the media continued to broadcast the news to the general public.

Especially Arlo, the campus asked him not to exaggerate or talk further about the matter. As a journalist, of course, his company tried to benefit from Arlo. As he was part of them, now the young man was confused between his job or campus. If he chooses silence, what about his job? If he opens his voice, surely the campus will be underestimated by the public. They will question the quality of the teaching place.

Just one week as a student at the university, his arrival was greeted with the death of someone. Pretty terrible welcoming show, right? Actually the campus is the best option in the category of famous universities, the incident became the first time for Exact University. The impact of the case affected the applicants who resigned, at least they lost 800 new students. How depressing.

"We met again after a month" Arlo said.

"Uh-huh, do you miss me?" Deline laughed, she meant to tease him.

Arlo was quite surprised, his eyeballs were moving around. It seems he's misbehaving.

"I'm kidding." Deline added.

"Ah—ya, but what if it's true?" Arlo stared at. "I mean, what if it's the other way around. Lest you miss me," Arlo replied with a flirtatious laugh.

"Basic, inverting facts."

The joking time was over, Arlo said goodbye because he had to work. Deline still has extra classes. Their schedules were at odds, making the two rarely meet. After college Deline immediately went home, as usual the house was quiet because Danesh was still working. It was fine that this kind of atmosphere he was used to feeling. Now it's time to rest up to recover the energy.

Deline hummed a little while copying the material into the notebook. The unusual energy suddenly disrupted his comfort. A person's silhouette flashed swiftly in front of the door of his room. Yes, Deline was able to sense the presence of something disturbing at this moment. Several times the shadow paced in front of the door.

"I can feel your presence. Don't bother me, you understand? You shouldn't be doing this because I'm not bothering you either" Deline commented, looking up from the room.

The books that were arranged on the shelf suddenly fell. Deline closed the door and entered the room. This was his second experience while living in the house of his brother. The first event when he was in the kitchen, the creature showed its existence by lighting a water faucet from the dishwasher. And now the second one he's in his room.

"What do you want? If you want to be friends with me, don't bother me like this. I'm tired you know?" Deline picked up her books.

I finished putting the books back in their place. Deline's body suddenly stiffened after an energy hit her body. His hands, feet and mouth could not move except his eyes. His whole body was like a bandage. Deline felt that someone was holding onto her shoulder, the breath of someone felt on the girl's neck. However, his form is invisible.

"Harum-," A soft whisper penetrated his sense of hearing, and Deline sat on the floor.

The atmosphere returned to normal, Deline went up to the bed. He trembled slightly as his body temperature increased drastically. I don't know what the creature was, but it managed to shock him. Danesh opened the door, he saw his sister sitting quietly with a blank look.

"Del, why? Deline?" Danesh wiggles his brother's arm. Deline was aware of the daydream.

"Sister Dan?"

"Your body is hot, are you sick? Let's go to the doctor." Danesh's worried.

Oh, yeah, it's hot. Deline just realized it. "No need, sister,"

"I'm worried you're doing why. Better we prevent than cure, now let's go to the hospital." Danesh pulls Deline's arm, but she still refuses.

"Then I'll get you some compress water. Wait yeah?" The man had just come home from work, he was still carrying his briefcase to see if Deline had gone home.

For three days they did not greet each other since the matter of private teacher jobs. However, Danesh could not ignore his sister continuously. Deline also did not intend to greet him because yesterday-yesterday the brother like dodging.

"I apologize for what I said back then" Danesh said as he pressed a compress cloth against his sister's forehead.

"I should be the one apologizing for disappointing you,"

"No-no, I was wrong too. Now I believe in your decision, Del."

Deline smiled slightly. "Thank you Brother Dan— should have taken a break, why even take care of me. I'm not a kid anymore, you know? I'm fine, don't worry."

Danesh held the brother's hand. "To me you are still a little girl who always whines when you don't buy raisin cookies,"

"Yes, Brother Dan." They laughed, recalling their childhood memories.

The creepy incident was deliberately not told to his brother. Enough of him to feel it, moreover Danesh is a cowardly man. In Deline's head there was still the thought of the speech from the creature earlier. The word fragrant made him creep. The words spoken from his mouth seemed to want something that Deline did not know.
