Rania's Invisible Search
PART 258 GATHERS ALL THE CITIZENS!
Mr. Jarwo smiled and explained that he was fine. Of course I'm not that easy to believe, because what I see now is very weak.
"Actually the power struggle that you see through the mind ends in a draw Nduk. I became like this because I was running out of energy. And after a lot of rest will definitely return to how it was. Before coming here a lot of business that I do, and I do not rest. If the dawn prayer did not come soon, we might both be seriously injured. He's a pretty tough opponent, so we need to be on our guard." Mr. Jarwo said with a long breath.
"But why after all this time have they just taken revenge sir? Didn't they also intend to retaliate against Mbah Karto as well, but why after he died, they just attacked everyone here?"
"That's Raniaaa... I also wondered, it was possible that they had deliberately amassed great power first. But they were too late, for God had already called Mbah Karto back to his side. Either that's their luck or their luck. The point is that they carry out a subtle revenge, until no one realizes that the villagers are in a big threat. Lucky you quickly realized, I don't know what will happen if we fight too late. For a while all areas of this village are safe, but all residents who have been sent santet may still be victims. Although not all will die, but I can not do anything because of my condition. You also do not have the ability to cure them Nduk. You can only protect them." Obviously Mr. Jarwo with a sad face.
"Sir Jarwo has been enough to protect everyone here. No need to feel guilty if you are not able to save everyone, at least we have tried our best. Mr. Jarwo must recover first, for a while Rania will try to ensure the safety of this village."
"The antidote I created around this village might not last long Nduk. Ask for help from the original demits waiting for this village to monitor the surrounding area. If there were any other magic or witchcraft shipments, they would have known it first. So you can counter it with the power you have."
"Can we take advantage of such protests, sir?"
"God is okay Nduk, you do not do polytheists by giving something to them. Because I see that they appreciate you so much, whenever you come or go from this village, the demits always accompany your journey to the limits of the Village. Maybe they are very grateful, because you made them free from the slavery of the late Mbah Wongso. Surely when you ask for help, those demons will willingly help you."
Hmm I have come back to remember all the demits who were once slaves of Mbah Wongso. Even Petter had wanted to be his slave Mbah Wongso as well. But all the demits in Mbah Wongso's former house, whether they are also pet demits who remain there.
"But sir before that can Mr. Jarwo help move all the demits in Mbah Wongso's former home. Poor people who live nearby, they are frightened and disturbed by the demit that occupies the empty house."
"If that's God willing I can do it there's no need to wait for my strength to recover. But I still need someone else's help."
"Thank you sir, that's what Rania thought. After this Rania will go to the house of Pak Haji Faruk. He will help clean the empty house, then Mr. Jarwo can move them to another place. But after the cleanup, maybe we should use the building so that it doesn't get occupied by supernatural beings anymore. Or some other solution, we just demolish the house."
"Let's discuss it in Village Hall only Nduk, ask all residents to gather there. We ask everyone's opinion, let there be a consensus."
"Please sir convey to all residents, and ask Pal Haji Faruk to come. Because we need his help."
"Actually there is a problem what to Nduk, why suddenly there is a discussion about the former house of Mbah Wongso. Are all the disasters in this village related to him?" Ask Mr. Sapri to be suspicious.
I lowered my head not knowing what to say. If I explain everything, then Mr. Sapri will panic. And it could be that everyone will know, and then it will make everyone anxious. But Mr. Sapri convinced me that he wouldn't tell anyone else. Because after the departure of Mbah Karto, Pak Sapri is always on the count of the villagers. Although he does not have the magic like Mbah Karto, but he is among the oldest in the village. Finally I was forced to tell everything in detail, about Wening and his Pakde. Sapri was surprised by rounding his eyes.
"The woman who came with you the other day, she's a lot like someone I've known. His face reminds me of the late Mbah Wongso's son who died in an accident. Could it be that the woman had something to do with Nduk?"
"It turns out Mr. Sapri already suspects it huh? He is indeed the grandson of the late Mbah Wongso."
"But why did you bring him back to this village of Nduk? If you'd known she and her Pakde were mean to all of us?"
"Calm down, sir. Rania just pretends not to know who she really is, because Rania wants to know what her plan is. Wening her name, she purposely worked in one office with me. From the beginning he always intended to take everything that Rania had sir. Though Rania never knew him, but he always talked about his Grandfather who died from being driven from his own home. He and his Pakde had already made some citizens die, in a subtle way. So you don't realize, if the people's pain is due to witchcraft."
Sapri appeared limp and supported his body by holding onto the pole. He must have been very surprised to know the truth. I immediately asked him to go to Pak Haji Faruk's house first, and tell him everything.
"Please sir lest anyone else know other than Pak Haji. Residents can only know about the cleaning of Mbah Wongso's former house. But don't tell me about Mbah Wongso's family taking revenge on us."
'You take it easy, Nduk, I won't tell other people. It is fitting that you and Mr. Jarwo came to this village from the beginning I was suspicious. Especially after seeing the face of the girl you were with. Hopefully, Warto can not beat Mr. Jarwo ya Nduk."
A warto? I don't know whose name Mr. Sapri mentioned. Could it be the name of Pakdenya Wening. Oh my God, all the problems are widening because someone from the past is coming back to sue for revenge. Although it actually makes sense if they are angry because they were evicted from their own homes. But why not talk about it is fine, rather than having to hurt many other people's lives. Hopefully we can stop the evil deeds of Wening and his Pakde.
