Chapter 22 Forbidden Zone?

The sound of the clock ticking filled the room. At this time someone was standing in front of a hall wearing all black clothes. Right in front of him was a mysterious symbol and that person continued to look at him with a sharp gaze with a grinning smile. The person continued to stare at him for a long time. This time it was in a castle-like house in the 34th district. A woman dressed as a maid was in that place and then entered a room in front of her. When the woman entered the room, it wasn't long before she placed the drink she was carrying on the table in the room carefully. And then the woman was about to leave.
"Wait Kenedy."
"Yes, miss."
"Aren't you busy?"
"No miss. I just finished all my work.”
"Then how about sitting here first."
"Oh yes."
Kenedy then obeyed what the woman's voice said willingly. When Kenedy sat on the chair there, suddenly the woman played a melody using the piano in the room and didn't have to wait long Kenedy had fallen and then his eyes seemed to be hypnotized by the melody to make him fall asleep. The woman continued to play the melody non-stop until her voice filled the entire room. The woman enjoyed the harmony with a grinning smile.
"Wow, immediately trapped apparently," said the woman.
"Even though there are still 5 songs left."
This time in a different place, a cafe where Samuel works. He had previously called Gabriel, the look on his face showed that he had a bad feeling about Gabriel. After he turned off his cellphone and then immediately left his workplace, he headed to the location where Gabriel is now thanks to the tracking device installed on Gabriel's cellphone even though he previously asked for his location just to make sure that Gabriel was telling the truth or not.
"Damn. This shouldn't have happened. What did that idiot do,” Samuel grumbled.
Now Gabriel, who had just killed the doctor with his two hands, made him speechless. His gaze was so shocking that it made his bloodied hands tremble uncontrollably. Gabriel continued to look at his palms and found himself falling into despair because he had just accidentally killed someone else. His feelings rose and then he gasped until he was almost out of breath. Tried to stand up and it worked. His footsteps then headed outside and there was no one there. The place which was like an empty land there was only one building there which was none other than the hospital building. Gabriel, who looked at the area around himself, just realized that he had a bad feeling before but he didn't avoid it so he was now in a place like this alone.
"This is not possible. What do I do? Why is my hand moving so fast? did I just kill him? This is terrible.”
Gabriel was walking with a limp because he still couldn't believe what he had just done. By now he had walked away from that place and when he looked around his face showed an expression of surprise at what he saw. The view of the city is far different from the one he always sees every time. So beautiful filled with people who live under the stress of the metropolis. However, what he saw right now was far different from that. the buildings that were damaged the sight of destruction like something terrible had happened in that place and left only ruins like this. Same as before when Gabriel went to a ruin like a temple and he found a pocket watch. The conditions are no more the same but this is not like a temple it is a city of a whole city.
“What kind of place is this? Why is it like this? What I see is real?” Gabriel muttered as he walked through the area.
“This is terrible. What kind of tragedy really is? How could it be so broken and what about everyone? Are they dead?” Gabriel muttered in disbelief.
"What are you doing in a place like this?" said someone from the north. It was a voice that had never been known before.
"Who? Oh. You?"
"What are you doing here? You shouldn't be in this place."
"Wait. Haven't we met before? Is not it?"
"It turns out that your memory works too. You're right, we've met before."
"What's your name? You haven't told me because you left right away."
"Leo. Just call me Leo."
"Oh. Leo. What's really going on here? What happen..."
"You did not know?"
"Eh? Of course. Because it's asking."
"There's no way you didn't know."
"Really."
'I don't think this guy is lying,' Leo thought
"This is what they did."
"Who are they?"
"Don't you believe in the holly grail war?"
"Eh? It? impossible. Isn't that just…”
"Superstition. You think so?"
"So it's reality."
“There are some people who deliberately make it look like that. and the effect is that everyone believes it does. Now do you understand?”
“This sounds absurd. But, seeing you tell me seriously once I think it can be considered.”
"Now go. You shouldn't be here. This is a forbidden zone.”
“Then, what are you doing here? Why are you in this place when you already know that this is a forbidden zone?”
"It sucks," Leo said.
'What the hell is that guy. why swear,' Gabriel thought.
"I am working. Satisfied."
"What? what is your job?"
"You don't need to know."
"Damn."
"Did you just swear?"
"Ah no."
Gabriel who had left that place and now himself was walking around the 78th district in the city of Antherius. Now he was about to go somewhere and he arrived at a BBQ restaurant. Gabriel then sat on a chair and then ordered a beer. He was still filled with lots of questions in his head, not long after that he was surprised by Jonathan's presence in the restaurant and finally they both ordered menus and beer.
"Oh, Gabriel. Are you alone?” Jonathan asked Gabriel.
"Yes. Sit down."
"Are you in trouble?"
"Right. a lot of problems lately. Not only that but my life does have problems.”
"What is this. You're just drunk."
"What's drunk? It's a fact."
“Even so, you should be grateful to be alive.”
Jonathan's words made him flinch for a moment because he remembered what had just happened to him. Gabriel then poured another beer into his glass and drank it all down. The waiter who had just arrived brought the menu they ordered and then invited them both to enjoy it.
"Please enjoy."
"Yes."

    Creativity that sharpens clarity is genius.” I put this first because it's the most important tip you can take from this list. If you do nothing more than write clearly, you're going to be in the top 10% of all writers. Don't try to sound impressive, just try to be clear.

    The writing is actually good, unlike most of the novel in this app it has great grammar, not my type of book since it's a crime genre but i recommend it to those who likes that type of book.
