You In The Rain Vol.1
Informants

......

In the city center.

Cody stopped beside his jeep, because the roadside in front of the restaurant was full he had to park it a little far on the small road between buildings across the restaurant where the next meeting, he said, just tethered the bag to his shoulder as his phone vibrated.

Phone call from Rio.

"Well Rio"

Carefully Cody crossed the road. A black vehicle had just stopped giving way to Cody, a man sitting behind the steering wheel watching Cody closely until the young man mingled with the other pedestrians on the sidewalk.

"I have a short appointment with a college friend, well in a moment will go to the office, you guys have lunch? I just bought you some fried chicken"

The atmosphere of the fast food restaurant was bustling ahead of lunchtime, Cody walked in and waved his hand upwards towards the man sitting by the window, next to him sat another peer man, he did not know him, he did not know, maybe that's the informant he'll meet.

"Well bye Rio"

Cody turned off his phone when he arrived in front of the man, a man of his age probably in his forties, hair that was a bit long to be hooked behind his ears, a big and friendly smile, he Rudy, said, the man known to Cody through a contact in the journal Dian, one of Dian's acquaintances who contributed a lot in several articles published by Dian, although he had no connection with the case investigated, he said, but he apparently knew one of the men that Dian had also met, a few days before Dian disappeared.

Ady, the same-age man sitting next to her also stood up to greet Cody and greet her.

"Good day Mr. Ady" said Cody, the man may be the same age as Rudy, but his tired eyes on his shoulders showed his life experience may be much more difficult than Rudy's, Cody knew a little from Rudy who had previously told him the man's history.

Being one of the people suspected of being a paid donor, Ady had to sell his kidneys due to economic demands, even though he did not get high payments from organs whose prices if on the black market could reach billions, he said, but at least enough to sustain his life at that moment.

But now, all the regrets that he realized too late, his increasingly difficult life, a weak body, and diseases that come in a row are not worth what he got first.

He met Dian first, because Dian wrote an article about the distribution of organs on the black market, many of which became victims, some even disappeared without news, he said, Ady is only one of the lucky ones to be able to live after him, even though now life for him is just like death.

The man had planned to report the contractor who offered him to sell his organs, he had bagged several names that were now also shared with Cody.

After this, the man will surrender to face whatever demands he will receive, his life is also not long since one of his remaining kidneys has also suffered severe damage, he is ready to face anything.

A few hours passed, the sun was already straight over the head.

Cody stepped out of the restaurant, half a day full of activities, he had even found other evidence for Dian's case, although it may have to investigate it further because arresting a few small people will not make the main perpetrator of the case revealed.

*-*-*-*-*-

Cody approached his jeep, it was time to head to the police station for his remaining half-day job, Rio had already kept contacting him since then.

He just took out his jeep key from inside the bag when suddenly there was a shadow that shot in front of him until surprised by the key dropped.

The figure disappeared quickly even when Cody had not had time to see his face, actually it was not strange and scary anymore for the spirit to come suddenly in front of him, in fact it was not strange and scary anymore, even so, he could not help his surprise.

"Ouch"

Cody lowered his body picking up the key, while squatting, looking something suspicious behind the wheels of his jeep, Cody made clear his vision gulped roundly at what was now in front of his eyes, not a good thing but at first glance he knew what was happening, Cody fell backwards, there were a pair of eyes glaring full of blood behind his jeep, someone who was already sprawled with blood, covered in blood, there was a lot of blood and it flowed to wet his jeep wheel.

"Geez" Cody hurried to his feet and almost tripped as he headed to the back of his jeep, looking a figure of a man, full of blood all over his body, he recognized him.

"Pak Ady?" The man, Ady, the informant he had just met earlier, trembled slightly as Cody tried to check if the man was still alive.

No pulse, he's dead. Cody retreated, almost fell again behind him, no one passed by there lunch hour had passed and the atmosphere was also starting to quiet.

Cody took out his phone, he had to focus and stay calm, had to contact Rio immediately, but just pressing the speed dial screen, someone suddenly approached from behind clutching his body tightly and silencing him loudly, saying, the phone he was holding fell hard right in front of his feet.

"Gum!"

Cody tried to wriggle, the hand was so big it held his neck, and one other hand silenced him with a cloth, the man was probably so tall that Cody felt his two legs raised and unable to resist. As powerful as Cody tried to take off the handle but the dope in the cloth made him limp, he said,

"Gee!!" Cody continued to fight until there was no more energy left, he had to give up in the end.

At the police station,

Rio who was sitting at his desk had just received a phone call from Cody, but there was no sound behind it, the young man started to get suspicious when he heard a strange voice behind the phone.

"Cody's! Cody what happened?"

Tony approached, from the look on Rio's face he knew his partner looked anxious.

"Rio what's wrong?"

Rio showed his phone screen where Cody's number was connected to him.

"Tony, try to find out where Cody is right now, suddenly I have a bad feeling, he called but there was no sound"

Tony tried to listen to Rio's phone, he also frowned, but there was only the sound of the crowd and vehicles like on the side of the road, there was no sound of the young man.

"What's going on?"
