Rania's Invisible Search
PART 6 MYSTERY DISCOVERY OF CORPSES
After cleaning myself and performing the magrib prayer, I sat in the front room. Faintly there was still the smell of incense inhaled in the nose, then I opened the door of the boarding so that there was a change of air. The shadow of the chandelier swayed. Instantly I squinted both eyes, observing the shadow of the lamp at the end of the hallway there.
"Why is only one chandelier that swayed, it should be if it was blown by the wind right here also follow the rocking dong? The branches of the tree in front also do not move, which is strange yes. "my murmur with scratching the head that does not itch.
"Rania." said Ma'am Ayu with a plate of round tofu.
"Eh Mbak Ayu, here go Mbak."
"So I finished frying this round tofu, yuk eat together. Oh yes Where is Wati? how come it's not visible from before?"
"Return home, Mother is sick and no one is sick. Maybe he will be in the village for a few days, after all there is no work call for him." I explained while devouring round tofu with green cayenne pepper.
"Nob if there's still a mother. If you miss staying home, you can still see and talk to Mom" said Mbak Ayu with teary eyes.
"Indeed, Maak Ayu can't go home because of what? Kan PNS has a daily holiday allowance, Ma'am, so Mbak Ayu can meet parents. Not rich me, the holiday is not clear Mbak, understand the pursuer of the news that is actual." I look at the face of Mbak Ayu, he was downcast with tears that almost fell from his eyelids.
"Eh sorry Ma'am. I don't know that." I haven't been able to continue my words, Ayu's mother shook her head while wiping her tears.
"What's the apology for Ran? you're not wrong. Yes, no need to talk about it again. I can cry really again" he said with a long breath.
Not wanting to talk about the same thing, I tried to find another topic. And I remembered the scent of incense, which had now disappeared.
"Mbak Ayu, did you think there was no incense around?" I noticed Mbak Ayu's face was a little surprised.
"Hmm incense? hmm not Ran. I don't know, actually. Since when do you feel the smell of incense here?" mbak Ayu asked by turning his head to the left and to the right.
"So Ma'am pas magrib, so I opened the door. Eh suddenly Mbak Ayu came with round tofu, a satiating coincidence not hehehe."
Mbak Ayu said if near this kost there is a place of prayer of the Chinese, it may be that the incense came from the temple around the kost.
Yes, it makes sense as well as Mbak Ayu's explanation. I didn't even ask about the incense laginsoal, and what still bothered my mind was the swaying chandelier.
"Maybe it's the wind, or it's a fad of demit." My mind frowned.
We talked without feeling it was almost nine at night. I missed the prayer isya, because so exciting was talking about many things about all residents of the boarding house. Understandably, Ms Ayu stayed here longer, so she knows more about everyone who lives in the boarding house.
"Ran, I'm back in the room first. Next time we talk again if it's a leisurely fit."
"OK deh Mbak thanks to know the whole thing, sory loh I only have syrup water so can not nyuguhin other drinks."
"Yes Ran, usually do not bother. Sory yes I so make you late to pray deh."
"It's okay, Ma'am, we are both late in prayer. Do you want any jama'ah Ma'am?" I smiled as I picked up two mukena, who happened to be left behind by Wati.
I walked towards the bathroom to pick up ablution, but my gaze was diverted with the backpack that zipped open and out a yellowish light flare.
"Maybe my phone is alive because someone called." My mind ignored it and walked to the bathroom.

A woman with a shady smile walked up to me, she held my hand and stared deeply into both of my eyes.
"Quick give the box to her, quick!!! the woman shouted with both eyes glaring.
My heart skipped a beat, my breathing was irregular, wanting me to escape from the presence of the woman. But my legs refused to move from the face of the woman. And something more shocking to me just happened in front of my eyes. The woman's head slipped from her neck, fresh blood instantly scattering. The head fell down just under my feet, and I screamed loudly.
"Let'soooooo!" I tried to run as hard as I could, and finally my legs felt light. And I ran as far as I could. But I stumbled over something and fell when I saw something that made me fall. It was the head of the woman.
.

Braaac. Thoug!!!
I fell out of bed, and my head hit the floor of the room. Aah, thank goodness it was just a nightmare. I rubbed the sweat that soaked my forehead, in fact my whole body was sweating. It was like running while sleeping. Immediately I stood up and walked half limping, because my knee hurt from the impact with the ceramic floor. I took a glass of water, and downed it without pause.
"Oh God what was my dream? why does it feel like real, my whole body hurts all." I murmured by stretching the muscles in the body.
I saw it was three and a half in the morning, and I remembered the deadline the next morning. I was curious to see how my boss responded. Yes Sister Rika, besides her my boss, she is also the sister of my friend who is now gone. Because of Ms. Rika, I was able to directly work in a big office that already had a good reputation among its rivals.
I forgot where I last put my phone. Oh yeah, in the backpack. Immediately I unload the contents of the backpack, but I can't find the phone. The feeling last night I saw the light in this bag, if it wasn't from a cell phone. Where did that light come from? I don't know, I was confused and went back to remembering where I put the phone.
I clicked my finger after I remembered, I grabbed the trousers hanging on the wall. Inside the pants pocket lies a cellphone that has run out of battery power. Fortunately I have not had time to soak in the bucket, if not can jagi junk nih hape. My mind breathes out a long breath.
Tiing!!! there's a message coming in from Mas Adit.
"Ran there is strange news, no time found signs of violence from the body of the corpse. Even the neck that was cut off from his head, left no marks from sharp objects. And even more strangely, the head of the corpse was not found by all officers. Strange don't you think?" mas Adit said in the wassap message.
