Chapter 16 The Dark Room

Gabriel who is currently with Ilya, the two of them went to a place that was none other than a place that was thought to be a former laboratory that is now being used as a weapons base for a network of arms dealers. Gabriel, who was surprised how he wasn't now in a place that he thought was very foreign and made him feel depressed. Not long after, someone came over to the two of them. That person was dressed like a soldier and was wearing a gun. Ilya, who turned out to know him, then greeted the person casually. Gabriel who still felt confused and saw the many people who were transacting made him feel foreign. Even so, he was reminded of the mission he had to carry out so his attitude returned to calm.
“Oh, Ilyasviel. Everything you need is here. Please look for what you want," said the person to Ilya casually
"OK. As usual, you are always friendly," said Ilya
“Oh yeah, who is this person? I just saw it."
"Just call me Gabriel."
"What's your friend?"
"Just acquaintances."
"Okay."
"Hello, I'm Gabriel."
"Yes. Welcome. do you need a gun?”
“I think so,” Gabriel said a little awkwardly
"You can choose which one you want. Don't worry it's all new."
“How did you make all these weapons?” ask Gabriel
"Of course we make it in the factory."
"What? so this place?”
"Your guess is correct. this is the biggest weapons factory in the city.”
"What? I can't believe coming to a place like that?”
"Hahaha you're so funny. so this is your first time?”
"Yes."
“I thought you were quite an experienced person. Turns out I was wrong."
"Do I look like that?"
"That's pretty much it."
They then browsed around. In this place a complete weaponry and also various transactions are carried out. The city of Eldelius turns out to keep a lot of secrets, one of which is this factory. Outsiders wouldn't think so. That the place that became the armory of one of them was in this city. Gabriel then saw several weapons that attracted him and then the person immediately brought them to Gabriel. This man's name is Philip. A security officer who is currently a member of this network. In this place Ilya got a large supply of weapons and that's right. this time Ilya bought a lot to be sent to his residence. Beyond Gabriel's expectations. So far he is just a lazy person who does not know about the outside world. So that when he was in a place like this he felt foreign and of course almost burdened. After the two of them finished with the weapons, it wasn't long before they said goodbye to Philip and left the place. Along the way, Gabriel still wonders about who Ilya really is. Even though we only met recently, it felt like I had met him somewhere. The feelings that arise are finally answered over time. Currently, Gabriel had been at Antoni's residence which was their headquarters for a while. There, he lay on the bed thinking about all the questions that had popped into his head. Gabriel tried to remember something and almost made him sink to the bottom of the abyss again. this time he tried to stay calm and try not to get caught up in it again.
This time in a place where everyone is gathering together. There is a classic melody that makes the ears so peaceful. They had fun together and also drank a lot of alcohol with the women. Laughter filled the room. On the sidelines of the enjoyment, suddenly someone came up to them and offered something. In the blink of an eye they were stunned by the offer that had just been given by the figure of a tall and handsome young man. Seeing their happy-looking reactions made the young man smile as he left the room. In the elevator, someone bumped into the young man and soon they were gone with one of them looking in a different direction. When the young man left the place, several people seemed suspicious of him and tried to follow his movements. In the blink of an eye, his steps were instantly read and left those who followed him shocked. They saw the young man smiling kindly at him and not long after that both of them died in shreds. Seeing his mangled body the man just walked away ignoring him. Shortly after, someone found the two bodies and made them run in fear.
"Curse? Hmm.... so sweet," said the young man with a smirking smile
Gabriel who was still lying waiting for himself to fall asleep, he suddenly heard the same melody as his. It turned out that when he looked at his pocket watch, it was true, he played the melody every 10 o'clock at night. The arrangement that initially frightened him was different this time. He looked at the clock endlessly and again as if he was in a field of red roses similar to the one in his dream. Gabriel then woke up and sat on his bed looking at the pocket watch. As he murmured in his heart.
'This is weird, how could this happen? What should I do? If it continues like this I'm going to be crazy,' Gabriel thought
The dark night makes everything feel dark. The deceptive views of the city make some people a victim. At the highest place which is a magnificent building someone is enjoying the dark night while sipping a glass of wine. The strains of classical melodies sounded so loud it made him feel like he was in a different dimension. At the same place, a woman came to him and brought a box. Not long after, the woman left him in the room alone. The box in front of him was a coffin that was offered to him as proof that the person he was hunting for was dead. Once the box was opened, there were several pieces of the body of a man who were thought to be offerings for him. The body was then closed again and some of his subordinates took him somewhere.
"Take it away."
"Yes sir."
"Good. This way everything will be perfect,” said the man with a hideous smile on his face
On the other hand, people are busy with their activities and seem to have never experienced anything in their life. Although some time ago one of the districts in this city had just been wiped out it didn't leave them feeling traumatized at all and the fear only lasted for a moment. Along the way people were still passing by and none of them felt any fear at all and looked normal. One of the residences in the city. There, there are young people who inhabit it. At night they always party and never once stopped. They are always like that make neighbors around the apartment feel annoyed and then call security. There was a debate that debated human rights. The third party officer had to stop all that and there were lots of eyes on them until both parties ended up in the office of the authorities.
"So, what really happened?" said the security guard
“These kids have a party every night so it disturbs our peace as neighbors. Honestly this stresses us out. You know how it feels? Very torturous. Every day after work they always make us unable to sleep, this has crossed the line,” said a woman who works at a tax office in this city. His face looked annoyed and several times often cursed in front of them all.
"What are you talking about auntie? We don't make any noise at all. You know whether to party or not is our right. Why do you just want to control other people's lives? If it bothers you shouldn't you just move?" said a teenage boy who was none other than his neighbor.
“This brat is rude!” shouted the woman
"Stop! You've had enough," said the security guard
The commotion that occurred made several other officers feel frustrated by him and just remained silent with their faces filled with annoyance. The debate on the matter lasted a long time. Leo, who was currently outside, then he came to the police station and saw the debate that was going on there made him sigh deeply. Apparently Leo came to this place to meet someone. The person he wanted to meet was a police captain and an old man. When Leo had met him, they then chatted together.
"Oh, Leo. How are you?" said the old man to Leo
"I'm fine sir. How about you?"
“As you can see, of course very good. By the way, is there anything you want to talk about?”
"There is. It's about…”
"Hmm, we don't know much about that. To be honest, the investigative team never even knew about them.”
"Impossible."
"Not. That's right. if you really want to know it you better investigate the fans. I think it would be more helpful than coming here.”
"Thank you for the advice. Then I'll excuse myself."
"Yes, of course."
Leo left the police station and then came to a bar. There, he finished a few glasses of vodka. His frustrated face then made a bartender ask him.
"You are okay?" said the bartender
"Yes."
"You're getting drunk. Better stop it."
"What? no. I will not stop.”
Leo's drunken state made him sleep there for a while. The bar located near the city center was surprisingly not very crowded. It's because it's hidden underground. The bartender who had been in front of Leo not long after that person woke Leo up. When he woke up, right in front of him was a bartender.
"You're awake. Here drink it. It will reduce your hangover," said the bartender, handing him a glass of potion.
