Bimo's Failure
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi0NeVB7dau
Kembang Setaman Discotheque.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl7P3DmLuYA
Disco lights flickered. The DJ played "Kopi Dangdut."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pabwMGCUY
On the top floor, a graceful woman sat in expensive clothes, a paper fan in her hand. She was the Grand Madam, Mariana.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFKCHm0QEwj
In front of her, a glass table. On it stood a tall cocktail glass, cold and misty, with small ice cubes floating inside. A bent straw clung to the rim.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCf65yC8tgw
Several guards stood watch around her.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRgCyhqBF3
A tall, broad-shouldered man bowed respectfully.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWzqMRQLIQ
Broto: "Madam, it turns out Bimo, our sniper, failed to take out Nagini and Officer Burhan."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlt1MLEckYh
The woman with the paper fan only smiled.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjJ7lfzheV
Mariana: "I already expected that, Broto…"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQaazr5Zrur
Broto's eyes widened in shock. His voice trembled.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2L5GIIQNhI
Broto: "You already expected it, Madam?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM8UHexilY7
Mariana took the cocktail, sipping through the bent straw. She nodded.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsAyaZakUU4
Mariana: "From my clash of inner force with her in the Ramayana Mall basement, I knew Nagini was not to be underestimated…"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwyrv0iF3M
Broto puffed on his cigarette, smoke curling from his lips.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxKdVPfrJ7
Mariana: "Even without the needle, Bimo's bullet would never have pierced Nagini's body."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRidr92820
Broto's jaw dropped, uneasy.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Glc6TZuXD
Broto: "What do you mean, Madam? Is Nagini bulletproof?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdyTcSafoV
Mariana smiled at his shock, amused by his ignorance of pure inner force that could destroy anything.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5GTUoFFxg
Mariana: "It's not like that, Broto…"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ709wYmhPYr
Broto tapped ash into the glass ashtray.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpB5RZkjUGH
Broto: "Then what do you mean, Madam?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgGaIrLBtM
Mariana: "Nagini's inner force is strong enough to stop a bullet."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUea2oujcAv
Broto still didn't understand. He took another drag, exhaling slowly.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0CMZPczA3a
Broto: "Then why does she use the needle?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMFQr8RXga
Mariana swirled her cocktail, playing with the bent straw, then chuckled.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhbvTEDcTJ
Mariana: "The needle is only a small tool to channel inner force. Just like this paper fan of mine, Broto…"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufVKHRIEQV
Broto nodded, starting to understand.

Eliminating Rani and Rina
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdlOiVjTXFv
Mariana opened her paper fan and waved it slowly.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkOx1EwBZbS
Mariana: "Broto, aside from Bimo's failure, how about the other targets? Were they successful?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNc5rsW6wqZ
Broto stubbed out his cigarette, lit another one, and exhaled.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioS5QBzyCN
Broto: "Yes, Madam. The corrupt cops—success. Arizal and Diono have been arrested for bribery and corruption."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgbQhPuWzz
Mariana: "Does that involve us?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWeVOaZ9vDX
Broto: "Of course not, Madam. That was our cyber team…"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD86kwTabmC
Mariana smiled faintly behind her fan.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBhvFkq8rb
Mariana: "Explain, Broto."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCxh66gffXf
Broto: "They hacked into the Anti-Corruption Commission's site and planted proof of Arizal and Diono's dirty transactions."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnlNjgyGdkS
Mariana smiled again.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwz2pataEww
Mariana: "And what about the twins, Rani and Rina?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DBQmJALwM
Broto inhaled deeply on his cigarette.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeNdeX0C0Q
Broto: "I already sent Andika and three of his men to shadow them…"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbVpdbK9L6j
Mariana sipped her cocktail, smiling.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTRYHYQC3N
Mariana: "Good, Broto."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7jfZpT3pVT
Broto: "Andika and his friends are experts in nunchaku."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPpl2cwqGF
Mariana: "Nunchaku? Two wooden sticks linked by an iron chain?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡASMfTf5Zx0
Broto: "Exactly, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuxjn76dmJm
Mariana's fan waved lazily. She smiled faintly.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9ai0EvQK1
Broto: "Pardon, Madam… what about Nagini and Burhan?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj2Wbd0WAak
Mariana: "After Bimo's failure?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbpZle4XOd
Broto: "Yes, Madam."

Taking Out Nagini and Burhan
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5Xelk3qoO
Mariana: "Eliminating Nagini and Burhan won't be easy, Broto…"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo7caQHELjJ
Broto kept silent, listening.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1842AIoTN
Mariana: "Nagini's inner force is very high. She needs a worthy opponent."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7ZFAdcbp9
Broto: "True, Madam…"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWagAGsRay4
Mariana: "Burhan, on the other hand, is an honest cop. It'll be hard for our cyber team to trap him."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkWKrUF8Ju
Broto smoked quietly.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX0Y5aM2bp
Mariana: "Any solution, Broto?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqLzepa20eG
Broto frowned, sipping cold coffee.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡulQHQNZ06m
Broto: "For Burhan… how about we hire Anton?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKxNM299Z9l
Mariana smiled thinly.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkqjGlBDuo
Mariana: "Anton? The ex-Brimob officer fired for beating his own commander?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmMTr9Cx30H
Broto: "Yes, Madam. That Anton. He works as a security guard here now."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DrjCGkK4p
Mariana twirled her fan, sipping cocktail again.

57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ52hbWwgVpc
Mariana: "Good. Send Anton right away."

Broto: "Yes, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡimYNRV4P6K
Silence.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWO0icNduD
Mariana played with her fan. Broto smoked, his face uneasy.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgjj4oxwRE0
Broto: "But Madam… what about Nagini?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ2IglcrmQX
Mariana: "You mean a worthy opponent for her?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mqxTcZTXf
Broto: "Exactly, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSfaNxFzfVo
Mariana: "For that, I have my own plan."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtbIXLr9RRE
Broto: "What do you mean, Madam?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJS37NjbG5
Mariana: "Do you know the old twins, Durgono and Durgani?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqKYY1xjj0P
Broto's eyes widened.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs52BqZuUlf
Broto: "You mean Gono and Gani—the karambit masters?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtQreD3ZO4v
Mariana: "Yes, Broto."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5iXZ9nPvvp
Broto: "Karambit… the small curved knife shaped like a sickle?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRZgX59bgAH
Mariana: "Correct, Broto."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs2sRDRJ8cA
Broto smoked again.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj7hqHGYwd6
Broto: "Aren't they retired from the underworld?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnUKuPBK4b
Mariana didn't answer—just smiled faintly.

Sawitri at Kembang Setaman
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumseC4jTkz
In the middle of their conversation, a young pretty girl approached Mariana.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKSAx4fWhaD
Mariana smiled warmly, while Broto's eyes popped at her beauty, his throat bobbing as he swallowed.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzNdFf6cqN
Mariana: "Broto, mind your manners. This beauty is my guest."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnOK7LS75VV
Broto: "Apologies, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCet8rwi8a9
He quickly looked away.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25eAeOAgP3
Mariana: "Don't be afraid. Come sit by me."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVk6TGOYtz
The girl sat shyly beside Mariana.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxRnuMrvNhd
Mariana: "What's your name?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5WY4bC2JaK
Sawitri: "Sawitri, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO5QAjzDa7
Mariana: "What would you like to drink?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQseZgd7SWQ
Sawitri: "Nothing, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQsbOMrdih
Mariana laughed lightly.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUUAdwLoSA
Mariana: "Broto, order an orange juice for Sawitri."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡilaVcpi6MG
Broto: "Yes, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyn9D7byYy6
He went to the bar.
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaqaYFabBY
Mariana: "Do you like it here, Sawitri?"
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcJcWfsK9Ji
Sawitri: "I do, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVmC1Zy8Atj
Mariana: "Good. Don't worry, no man here would dare touch you."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz1Ycx1mxZf
Sawitri: "Thank you, Madam."
57Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJcW4DY3ep
Moments later, Sawitri's orange juice arrived.
