After letting Gabriella leave at the airport, I returned to my car in the parking lot. While in the cabin, I suddenly felt restless. It was as if someone was watching me from a distance.I drove the car out of the Juanda airport area in Surabaya. Every now and then, I looked in the rearview mirror to see if someone was really following me. As far as I drive, there's nothing out of the ordinary in the back of my car. However, I still feel uneasy.The traffic light shows a red color which means stop. I hit the brake pedal to stop my car right in the front row. I took a deep breath to get my heart rate back to normal.I feel that my anxiety is maybe just my mixed feelings. In the midst of many thoughts about Saltyville, the Rasheed family, the Scielhort family, Hendryx, the Limantoro family, Troy, Brody, the attack on my house, two bodies burned on the beach, and the last one is the case of the acid attack against the Indonesian Corruption Eradication Committee (IC

When thinking about why Surabaya civil servants are in Singapore, my head was spinning all of a sudden. I remember everything I've been through before.At first, there was Brother Bowie, a pedicab driver, who was arrested by ICEC because he was accused of being involved in money laundering by the Regent of Madura Floyd Sr. The Regent used Bowie's name to obscure the origins of his corrupt money.Why is Regent Floyd so heartbroken with his people?In addition, it is reported that the Surabaya City Government will evict Saltyville Village - a traditional village. What worries me, even more, is that Big K told me that the Surabaya City Government would also evict Certajava.Then there was Alex Limantoro who invited two mafia bosses to attend his daughter's wedding. They were Uncle Brody and Uncle Troy. Later I found out that the three people were relatives of my grandfather.At that time, Alex said that he was invited by the Mayor of Surabaya Jamaal A

"Uniquely," Quinn said again, "This mastermind also has a son who is also on the ICEC radar."What! Wait a minute. Didn't Uncle Troy tell me that there was a cop in Guysville, Newton who was under ICEC surveillance?“Because he was suspected of misappropriating police money, his son was moved to Surabaya. Because his father is an official, the corruption investigation case is sinking," Quinn added.No more mistakes. The son was Julia's fiancé. And he is Gerald.“Is this information valid, Quinn?” I asked."Of course," Quinn replied.Oh no! Julia must not know Gerald's background. Besides he likes to beat, that one policeman is also a corruptor. I can't let Julia marry Gerald."Is something bothering you?" Quinn asked again.“No,” I replied, “I just feel deja vu.”Quinn took a deep breath and looked at his watch. It seemed he was waiting for something."It's time, le

Then, suddenly the rumor spread that Vincent Limantoro was a descendant of communists. Vincent's family said the issue once defended Saltyville because they wanted immorality to continue in Saltyroth. George Limantoro was touted as a dissident against the regime.Shortly, Mayor Jamaal announced three villages, not two, whose citizens were asked to leave immediately. The problem was, the three villages would be evicted by the authority in a couple of days. The three villages were Saltyville, Wigan, and Certajava. For Saltyville in particular, the eviction would be the next day.Those facts made me even angrier. I ignored Brody's advice to remain silent. At a concert that refused the eviction in Saltyville, I participated in openly voicing my rejection of Jamaal.At that concert, I was no longer wearing Che's robes. I wanted the world to recognize me and the voices I represented.Then hundreds of IMD masses suddenly attacked Saltyville. There were clashes b

The next day, I asked my mother, Lidia, about Saltyville in more detail. The village elders refused to talk about it unless Lidia had already told me. And how did Bradley relate to all of this? But Lidia refused to talk about Bradley and Saltyville.I insisted that I read old documents at the Dr. Sue Thompson Regional Hospital. The document stated that there was the name of Lidia Tanoto, who gave birth to twins without a father. Lidia didn't budge.I was not broken. Then, I rushed to the warehouse of my house. I unpacked old chests and suitcases that were there. Every old document I read to find what I looking for. But, actually, I didn't know what I was looking for. I only knew Bradley and Saltyville.Then there was a clean pocketbook, tied with ropes from torn cloth. I opened it slowly because the book had rotted with age. In the book, apparently, Bradley wrote his daily life up to three days before mysteriously disappearing.In the book, Brad wrote abo
