The Ghost Story of LESTARI
33. Follow Samsul

Bukh!!

Samsul got punches on his face and stomach, blood began to fill his entire body from his vomit.

But Samsul still chose to silence. Seeing what Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira did made Samsul more clear to see the figure of a man with a big name was in fact exactly colonial.

No wonder he can succeed when many people suffer, and he can also be very close to the Dutch people.

His nature and temperament are in contrast to the figure of Damar the son, who is kind and warm to anyone, Damar must be down to the nature of the Mother, the mother, who is warm to anyone, it is impossible for him to go down the nature of his father who justifies all means to get what he wants.

And...

Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira now directs a firearm towards Samsul's head.

"Say where is Lestari? He wasn't in the store, and Damar was obviously with you, where were they?"

Ask Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira.

Samsul grinned in his body pain.

He is not afraid of death, rather than being a traitor friend who is like a brother to him, better Samsul choose to die.

To die is far more glorious than to open your mouth to be a traitor.

Dar!!

Impatiently, Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira finally fired his firearm bullet right into the chest of the samsul.

Samsul tied his hands and feet twitched, and the second shot shot again towards the chest next to him, which ended Samsul's life.

Samsul died as a friend, brother and loyal servant of Damar.

"Dispose him to times, at most if found people, thought he killed Japan."

Said Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira coldly.

He then walked into his residence, his executioners then untied Samsul to obey the Lord's order to dispose of his body.

The next morning on the foot of Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa, Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa was preparing to go to the residence of Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira.

While Damar and Lestari had been evacuated before dawn with the help of villagers who drove to their place of exile accompanied by Mang Dayat.

"I asked once again Mang, I heard you say Samsul's name, why is he really?"

Damar asked Mang Dayat as they were on their way to Mang Dayat's house where Damar and Lestari would be staying for a while.

Damar was so curious and worried, if anything bad happened to Samsul.

"Calm the Young Master, all will be well because Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa will step in."

Mang Dayat tried to calm Damar.

Lestari who sat beside Damar looked at Damar's face with an innocent look, Damar who realized he was being stared at by the lover finally grabbed Lestari's hand and then grasped it tightly.

Lestari did not say anything along the way, although her heart actually continued to wonder why it was as if everything was so chaotic, but she felt it was because she was of Dutch descent.

Arriving at the intended place, they immediately descended.

"Thank you Mang, Mamang should just go back to Cirebon."

Said Mang Dayat to one of the residents who asked for help Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa to take Damar and others.

Mang Dayat then invited Damar and Lestari to hurry to the Dutch housing complex that had been empty.

The atmosphere was so quiet and seemed haunted.

This Dutch elite housing complex is quite far from the village location and closer to the sugar factory that mangkrak and sugar cane plantations that seem to have been looted and no longer have to maintain.

The shift of power from the Netherlands to Japan in fact makes all Dutch heritage unkempt.

Japan was more concerned with food products such as rice to supply food to areas where the Japanese army was fighting against allies for Greater East Asia.

"I am sure here will be safe Young Master, everyone has been killed and arrested, this complex will not be touched by anyone. Later in the afternoon according to Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa's decision this morning, I will follow him to Kuningan, making sure Samsul is okay."

Said Mang Dayat while arranging several packages of food provided by Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa's wife as provisions.

"Three days I will come to deliver the food, you and Lestari temporarily hide here, while Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa thinks of another way out."

Mang Dayat.

Damar who had no choice but to comply with Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa's decision to defend him finally nodded.

Mang Dayat smiled looking at his young master.

In fact, if Damar could become a great Lord like his Father, he would surely become a beloved Master and be respected by his servants.

Mang Dayat finally excuse me for having to follow Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa to the residence of Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira.

Brakk!!

Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira kicked off his resting room table, while a servant conveyed the arrival of Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa.

"What's he here for?"

Gerrutu Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira while finally out of his room and towards the pendopo where Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa is now sitting cross-legged waiting for him.

"Why are you here for Ki?"

Ask Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira while heading to his great seat.

When Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa who is other than older and also has higher knowledge than him sits cross-legged on the floor, Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira just sit on the chair as the King.

"I came to pick up Samsul Tuan, I asked him carefully to release the orphan boy, he really does not know about you and your son fighting over Dutch girls."

Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira laughed.

"Ki, you think I'm a kid you can fool, huh? How can the person who took Damar to this place yesterday not know about the problem that happened."

"He just drove away."

"Well a liar, you're nothing more than an old liar."

"Mr Ageng Parta Prawira, you realize, sir, it's just a little girl's problem, why do you seem to be so out of control."

Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa seemed unable to be more patient.

"No need to patronize me Ki, I know better what I want and I need. I'm more entitled to decide who I want to have and who I need to get rid of."

Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira stands.

"Samsul was dead last night, you look for him at times, I'm tired, I want to sleep."

After saying it, Mr. Ageng turned around to return to his room.

However, Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa who was furious amazingly saw the attitude of Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira was finally forced to hit Mr. Ageng quickly from behind him.

Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira was also successful.

Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa clenched his fists in anger, then hit the face of Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira many times.

Unfortunately, Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa seemed to forget where he was.

A servant of Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira suddenly from the side thrust a sharp weapon into the back of Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa.

Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa who was stabbed from behind looks turned towards the servant who just stabbed him.

Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa's body was hollow, and the opportunity was used directly by Mr. Ageng Parta Prawira to stab Ki Gedhe Tirtayasa repeatedly until finally the authoritative man followed Samsul.
