3-1 Nagini Meets Inspector Burhan
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCsBitw0DfK
Police sirens wailed in the distance, heading straight for the Red Gang's hideout.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND5ZMSWSLm
The place was eerily quiet—most of the gang members had already fled, either from Nagini's furious attack or from the wooden clubs of local youths who had had enough of the gang's extortion and intimidation.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFUWP3LETy
The young men were now guarding several gang members Nagini had beaten earlier at Jono's rented house.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHty3prqcl
They groaned in pain, unable to move.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5QlnvkB4XT
A clean-shaven man in a crisp police uniform stepped out of the patrol car, eyes sharp as a hawk.
His name was Burhanudin, rank: Inspector (Iptu).
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYvMu6TSGJ
Several other officers also emerged from the vehicle, all in full uniform.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVdlKApM2T0
Inspector Burhan walked into the crowd, scanning the battered thugs lying on the ground.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWpU4gOMd8G
Burhan: "Can someone tell me what happened here?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQe8ByS6lV
A young man named Budi stepped forward.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgD9nnjtL4G
Budi: "Sir, these are the Red Gang! They tried to attack Mr. Jono, but Sister Nagini beat them all up!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFqJaf62tD
Burhan glanced at the woman in red standing with clenched fists.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTamp7CMRfV
Burhan: "So you're the one who did this?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMBSkJ7FrRr
Nagini: "Yes."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXqYrbPi0ET
Budi: "They've been terrorizing the neighborhood for ages, Sir!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfnI4BBnhIP
Another young man, Saridin, chimed in.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL5sJ5aiL5R
Saridin: "They've caused nothing but trouble for everyone."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2029z0twU
Budi: "If it weren't for Sister Nagini, we'd never have dared fight back."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2rakRAkGMU
Burhan: "So your name is Nagini?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhfSZOdoGk7
Nagini: "Yes. My name is Nagini."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQTSWEDlql
Burhan looked back at the two young men.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5geQLZsUaS
Burhan: "I've wanted to throw these guys in jail for a long time, but they're slippery."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLheB7XlXG5
Budi: "Everyone would be happy if they got locked up."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Mdwra0KQF
Saridin: "No more extortion disguised as 'security fees.'"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKDRU3reoeI
Burhan: "Yes, they'll be in prison for quite a while."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzPELj3Wjx
Then Burhan studied Nagini carefully, as if sizing her up for questioning.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkn76dxu6Uq
Burhan: "You're not from around here. Where are you from?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntQr7ffpt9
Nagini frowned slightly, answering hesitantly.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFZ5FHCHFI
Nagini: "I'm not from this era."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdsndPEbpz
Burhan held back a smile. As a police officer, it sounded absurd and amusing to hear someone say they weren't from this time.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7IG187zVGm
Burhan: "From the era of kingdoms?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkG5CJxWXbH
He joked.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpqY2RtbBfN
Nagini: "Yes."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjmHUfLGZ8D
Burhan couldn't contain his laughter, convinced she was just joking.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuUWvMCtZw
Burhan: "You sure you're from the royal age?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVYYkMVgMk
Nagini: "Yes!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzv0or3fD9z
She insisted, though looking a little awkward, still trying to hide her confusion in this modern world.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZNVqZ5RWM
Burhan chuckled until his eyes watered.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiVsuPm4GZG
Burhan: "You're funny. And strange."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOSxEjSgeRG
Nagini: "You don't believe me?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbMU1Jn1gR
Burhan just laughed again, then changed the subject.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeUfXPRikp6
Burhan: "Alright, miss, I've got plenty more questions for you."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQkUJpzegVU
Nagini simply nodded.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlVFkdQ9KS
From that night on, their relationship slowly grew closer.

3-2 Pondok Gede Indah Apartment
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9gPV5gwQU
Burhan: "Nagini, you'll stay here for now."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bB9lPhRFz
Nagini stared at the tall building he pointed to.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz2XdaXcJuC
At the very top, a large sign read: Pondok Gede Indah Apartment.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp75dUUQ5Xu
Nagini clicked her tongue in amazement at the strangeness of this modern world—tall buildings, cars, bustling crowds, and people cursing in the streets.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0abSdyZlr
Burhan parked in the basement and they both got out, heading for the elevator.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKUIJkg2qEt
Burhan: "Come on, Nagini. Let's get you registered at the reception."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ84YURNf4uL
They went up to the first floor and approached the front desk. A young woman greeted them. Burhan read her nametag: Karmini.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOzzRdks3yo
Karmini: "How can I help you, Sir?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpiuqij6LWL
Burhan: "Do you have a vacant room?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zS0IcwcBl
Karmini: "Yes, Sir."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSUIB8sjPTN
Burhan: "We'll take one."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsC8JjE991T
Karmini looked between Nagini and Burhan.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxRBsiJOja
Karmini: "Husband and wife?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwbZf7Kndxd
Burhan: "No."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwfGLRNeAQp
Nagini looked puzzled at their exchange.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0jojXLgTc
Karmini: "What do you mean, Sir?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytGVTCPAMV
Burhan: "For my work partner."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYY4nReWmFz
Karmini smirked slightly.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsguCpP3stk
Karmini: "Oh… so you're work partners, not husband and wife?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcWlrQqPWiC
Burhan and Nagini exchanged glances. Nagini blushed, Burhan looked sheepish.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3nD5b6d5L
After completing the paperwork, Nagini received the key to unit 21-2B.

3-3 Nagini, the Red Jacket
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbgXGEJ3Tee
After setting up the apartment for her, Burhan took Nagini for a tour around Jakarta.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5fMX39PBqo
He was behind the wheel of his white Avanza, with Nagini in the passenger seat.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXe29WS1RRb
Earlier, he had bought her new clothes—still red, of course.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ8BQznNWbb
A red leather jacket, black stretch pants, and white Eagle sneakers. She looked both stylish and modern.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQhQoHcFB1Q
Burhan glanced at her.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLqA2J1TC6p
Burhan: "Beautiful."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69VXev5HTz
Though a police officer, Burhan was actually the son of a wealthy businessman.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRJeYzXJ0i1
Burhan: "Do you like your new clothes, Nagini?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRWw1slEaJ
Nagini: "You mean this red leather jacket?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwAh1Zl4bQ5
Burhan nodded.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrALAx5Q7SA
Nagini: "Of course I like it, Burhan."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAGkqBIqxDM
Burhan smiled, his mood lifting as they drove toward a café.

3-4 Burhan, Nagini's Grandson
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9SYFOIfMOi
Burhan: "I'm taking you to a quiet, romantic café."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6lKqHoJOg
Nagini glanced at him, then nodded.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBdRhANtBA
They parked in front of the café and walked side by side.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAmf9ffle1o
Burhan suddenly stopped, holding her hand tightly, and looked deep into her eyes. His voice trembled slightly.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyGxWagUpHI
Burhan: "I like you."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHEW56Ky78
Nagini was a bit startled.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZjM7gCYsh
Nagini: "Are you sure?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtoL6uaWCky
Burhan: "Why do you ask?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqVKsXh9pw
Nagini: "I'm from the 16th century, the royal era."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEmST0ZTasc
Burhan: "You've told me."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrTHCBs7pcw
As a logical police officer, Burhan didn't really believe it. Time travel was the stuff of fiction, not police reports.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXYHHAqa70E
Burhan: "And I don't care."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8T9sjSCCMc
Nagini smiled faintly, knowing he probably didn't believe her and was just teasing.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV5ohaEIdh
Nagini: "In this time, I should already be your grandmother."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzTUBXwW6TM
Burhan chuckled. The "grandma–grandson" joke might actually hold some truth—Nagini had jumped nearly five centuries forward, so Burhan could indeed be a descendant.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfYCpvscpj0
Burhan: "But you've never been married. How could you have grandchildren?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0xdwPy9q7I
Nagini playfully swatted his back.

3-5 Kemang Raya Cafeteria
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqqPdAVM5Vp
The two of them then walked back toward the large building of a café.
Before entering, Nagini read the sign above the door that said:
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwJLH8to15
"Kemang Raya Cafeteria."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RGegRDZe2
Kemang Raya Cafeteria was an elite café, a gathering place for the rich and well-established.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn1G0yJIduV
Wealthy businessmen, council members, government officials, police officers, and university students often mingled here.
Some came to talk business, politics, or art,
but most just came to show off their wealth: luxury cars, sparkling jewelry, and branded goods.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxwyHZGycGS
The luxurious and elegant atmosphere could be felt in every corner of the café.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5MshVT483
After enjoying the view from outside, Burhan and Nagini entered Kemang Raya Cafeteria.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPpggaZdbj
Burhan had already reserved a table, so they went straight to their seats.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDN8XUxys7
Burhan: "Waiter, come here."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJdIbRjIiz9
A young waitress approached.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡztXZurM2Li
Waitress: "What would you like to order, sir?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH70FepzGsB
Burhan pointed at the menu and opened it.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTrukQbdUQ
Burhan: "This drink. Two of them."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEyhXI64Y7
The waitress went into the kitchen. Moments later, she returned carrying two large glasses of fresh orange juice.

3-6 Armed Robbery
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUwyruDQCy
Burhan and Nagini were chatting about Jakarta. Nagini asked many questions, and Burhan was happy to explain.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYkiOTdkOwZ
Suddenly—
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKTHyOhkr1
"Hands up!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1fOaKoYQD6
"Don't move!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKtXlIkkTwb
"This is a robbery!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ47MsbqKxMO
The loud voices made every customer in the café jump in shock. A wave of fear filled the air.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbBs2Lxwe3X
At the entrance stood four people wearing black masks. Only their eyes were visible through small holes in the fabric.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡms4qzgS2c1
Three of them were tall and broad-shouldered, each holding heavy automatic firearms—likely AK-47s.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLofIa1n9lH
The fourth was smaller, with a noticeably fuller chest compared to the others—undoubtedly a woman.

3-7 Poisoned Needle vs. Bullet
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tbfNV7Wb8
Burhan: "Nagini, keep your head down! They have firearms!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanwp597JyD
Nagini: "What is a firearm?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Xxg3Ta4Ym
Burhan: "It shoots bullets and can kill from a distance!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JQ7dXrENf
Nagini: "Like an arrow?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡObePAAqG8n
Burhan: "Exactly! Now keep your head down!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH81oSC7VvE
Seeing Burhan's worried expression, Nagini began to understand the danger.
Her mystical and supernatural instincts kicked in, making her hyper-aware of the threat.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeahLsCBLQY
Both her hands slipped into her jacket pockets, gripping her poisoned needles tightly.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTSvWAsu4r
Up front, the largest robber pointed his gun at the customers.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzgen3kaXU
Robber 1: "Hand over your jewelry and phones! Put them in this bag!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNigPL3yY13
Robber 2: "Don't resist! Or we'll shoot!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhPmDHksnz
Terrified customers quickly dropped their valuables into the bag carried by the smaller, female robber.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqNlVnRbBc
But one wealthy old lady refused, clutching her handbag tightly.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwrkjBxESzA
Old Lady: "Don't take my bag!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGv8w83zEq2
Robber 1: "Shoot her! We're running out of time!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnAeDduaGoF
Robber 2: "Densus 88 will be here any second!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡruPuYlqqlZ
Robber 3, who was holding a pistol, immediately raised his weapon and pulled the trigger.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThgLVVcF2I
Bang!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb9TdLQ9jh1
The bullet shot straight toward the old lady.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m1dCjenBe
Nagini, already prepared, threw one of her poisoned needles.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUBBlne8LR
Whoosh!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1SQ3gfAPp
The needle sliced through the air—
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLfGu5P9iK
Clang!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsm3SSl7st
It struck the bullet mid-flight.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqgYeWdkwB
As if swallowed by a mystical wind, the bullet lost all its force and dropped harmlessly just centimeters from the old lady's head.

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9MnoBdufW
The robbers froze. Fear began to creep into their eyes behind the black masks. With a trembling voice, one of them tried to hide his growing dread.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMLTBaV2eGB
Robber 1: "Who did this?! Who dares pull such a stupid stunt?!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGzLh0rdtHF
Nagini stepped forward, standing tall before everyone.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr9NCRGef2i
Nagini: "I did."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHaepw478fo
Gasps filled the café. Some people held their breath, afraid Nagini would be riddled with bullets any second.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEDkVdikZw
Robber 1 raised his weapon, panic and rage mixing with fear.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQqXQOQOjE
Robber 1: "You've doomed everyone here!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBa817ejuh
Without hesitation, he unleashed ten bullets toward the crowd.

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjBT9yzybrK
Screams erupted as chaos took over.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYfPKcitag
But Nagini was already in motion. Her hands moved with lightning speed, releasing ten poisoned needles with full force.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZcEmIwrTM

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeV4SQameV7
A faint, cold wind followed the deadly needles.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryHPEKh93O
Clang! Clang!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56I3dJbr8n
Each needle collided midair with a bullet, snuffing out its force. The bullets dropped harmlessly to the floor.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMsFvNrWfC
The four robbers stared in shock, their legs shaking. Their fierce bravado melted into pure terror, like lions suddenly turned into house cats.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxqu2EWsHzS
Cold sweat ran down their spines.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN1Pj9rN9dq
The small one holding the bag of stolen goods fared the worst—her hands shook, and a dark patch spread down her pants. She had wet herself.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwQgmgsqK21
One robber's voice trembled.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZks9qCTIV

122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUNzPbyTQbY

Not far from the University of Indonesia campus stood a towering forty-story apartment building. At its top, glowing letters read:
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4dy5vyqdm
"Seroja Indah Apartment"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1GAYhanTf
On the fourth floor, one modest but cozy room stood out.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHhqU5Fpq7
A neatly made bed, a wardrobe in the corner, and a small study desk by the window.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiBePiSuhY3
Through that window, the city stretched wide, its twinkling lights scattered among high-rise buildings. In the distance, the Monas monument stood proudly, its crown plated with thirty-five kilograms of gold.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBakjeHh76p
Inside, two young women sat side by side. They were identical twins—round faces, flowing curly hair, slender builds. Both wore pink leather jackets paired with tight black pants.

The slightly taller one was Rani. The shorter one, Rina. For strangers, telling them apart was nearly impossible.

Though it wasn't yet eight o'clock, the sidewalks to campus were nearly deserted. Cars passed only occasionally.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhOvQvlMfcL
The tall buildings along the way were dimly lit, their lights fading into the night.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUbIQyd8c1E
The usually bustling street vendors were nowhere to be seen. Only a few people strolled in the distance.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOKQbe2UluF
On one stretch of sidewalk, a group of young men loitered—smoking, drinking beer, and chatting. Some idly chewed on peanuts.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4PutblCCJe
Below the sidewalk, four others sat singing along to the strum of a guitar.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcizoC371u
Rani and Rina approached, chatting and laughing. But as they drew closer, they slowed.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XFrO8Jh1a
The sight ahead wasn't encouraging—empty beer bottles, cigarette packs, and peanut shells littered the ground.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGZx8pEHhEL
They looked like troublemakers.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOF5ht5d934
Rani: "Rina, do we have to go through them?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQNy8fN3bQ
Rina: "Of course. There's no other way to campus."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfLY7wxXgvE
Rani: "Aren't you afraid they'll bother us?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wBBcW0Ksq
Rina smirked, and Rani laughed out loud.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajELmKjPVm
Without hesitation, they kept walking—heads high—as they passed the group.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDqrWOafhBs
Up close, four young men lounged on the sidewalk while six others played guitar and sang below.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Q3RVdoEaQ
One short, stocky man with chubby cheeks, narrow eyes, a protruding belly, and skin the color of roasted coffee—Martoyo—pointed at the twins and called out.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoC0mCKh7ud
Martoyo: "Hey, guys! Look! Two angels have just descended from heaven!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtUxoZe70x8
Three others immediately turned to stare.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡagwnEV0cPc
One was small and skinny, with wild eyes, long hair, and tattooed arms. His name was Misnan, and he was the most aggressive of them all.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa5nNGAyZy6
He stepped toward Rani and Rina.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvVj2cTsBT
Misnan: "Hey, girls… why don't you have some fun with us?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA0MTe0lNcF
Rani and Rina ignored them.

3-12 Rani and Rina vs. the Street Thugs
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVxakj4kAeZ
A tall, broad-shouldered young man with long wavy hair stepped forward. His name was Gendon.
His thick lips looked like they belonged to a tilapia fish, made even more ridiculous by the thick mustache almost covering them.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFV4oljKgT
He held a hansip nightstick (Civil security officer's baton) on his shoulder and yawned lazily.
Despite his intimidating appearance, Gendon was… well… not the sharpest knife in the drawer.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGIjlfKrIOG
Gendon: "Hey, pretty girl! Wanna be my girlfriend?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUvG3Eq8jL
Intelligence might not be his strong suit, but every time he saw a pretty woman, his mouth would automatically start running.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG8NdAJ3iSs
Only Misno didn't join the teasing—though his eyes stayed glued to the twins' faces, and his throat made a loud, audible Glegh! as he swallowed.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXiGJYA1wzh
Misno was a lanky guy with messy curly hair, thick lips, wide eyes, and a thin mustache. His clothes were neat… but he smelled strongly of dried salted fish. Pretty women were his weakness, and whenever he saw one, his gulp reflex kicked in.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpcph92lYXw
The four men surrounded Rani and Rina.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZ2I6jYICO
Misnan: "Hey, ladies, how about staying over at my place tonight? You can have whatever you want…"
Misnan chuckled sleazily.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjHkjOb6Yq8
Martoyo: "I could be your boyfriend instead…"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ey6CEaDSP
Gendon: "So, girlfriend, yes?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyZ22p15xo
Misno still didn't move, just stared and Glegh! again.

3-13 Beating Up the Thugs
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6gPCvbrQSc
The moment the words turned sleazy, Rani and Rina's smiles vanished. Both spun around to face the thugs.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhOKeKXB4F
Rani: "You're getting out of line."
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHUmkrf7S0
Rina: "Speak politely to women!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdt4BTczLl1
Misnan: "Why should I care?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAXci3arzRU
Martoyo: "Yeah, why should I care?"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf8N434jyHs
Gendon: "Still waiting for that girlfriend answer…"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyErvlVwjq
The three of them snickered like hyenas. Gendon kept patting his nightstick on his shoulder.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwa041ujIaz
Misno? Still Glegh!.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFEUnzNmm1B
The four of them reeked of alcohol. Their speech was slurred.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5oZGC878T7
Misnan reached out to grab Rani's shoulder—
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJSPPKTYxJ
Tep!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp10SGHE2Jj
Her hand shot up first, locking onto his wrist.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mPII8TLRP
Crack!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQr3dIKdsf
Misnan: "Ow!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiY79I3bFQ
Misnan dropped to his knees in pain, his fingers already swelling.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaWBZTcNTI
At the same time, Martoyo tried to grab Rina's arm—
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmckBxuAcR
Thwack!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ97J8uBfnLd
Her hand caught his, twisting sharply—
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaOnN8cXu7I
Blugh!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuCbHNr2TdH
Martoyo: "Ow!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4v94YxPpsN
He landed on the pavement with a swollen arm, looking like he'd need a traditional massage… or maybe an exorcism.

3-14 Gendon
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PO8qcn4tH
Gendon didn't react, still caressing his nightstick like it was his pet cat.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lXR7bzzIZ
Misno stayed frozen, Glegh! again.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxOA5q41IX
Misnan: "Gendon! Why are you just standing there? Hit them!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMypSNICidP
Martoyo: "I'll buy you martabak if you do!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFvvnY8Ecp
Now, martabak is a sweet, stuffed Indonesian pancake—a delicacy Gendon would gladly fight for.
At the magic word, he raised his nightstick.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzKSD41hK4
Misno kept watching nervously, Glegh! again.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsj47vyAYm
Rani and Rina exchanged a sly smile. The nightstick strikes were easy to dodge, and within seconds…
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSyPjuj4j78
Wham! Bam! Snack! Thud!
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLCnlPwAcd
Gendon: "Ow! Mercy!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtDGNSO7gH
The big man crumpled to the ground—cheeks swollen, head sprouting three new lumps, stomach aching, and lips puffier than ever, as if he'd been run over by a train.

3-15 Misno Runs Away
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuaShEJq3ad
Misno was still rooted to the spot, but this time his Glegh! wasn't from admiration—it was pure fear.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3t7A7LviQt
He glanced toward a group of six guys singing on the street below, but they weren't part of his gang.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlglticO1wE
When Rani and Rina's eyes locked on him, his knees wobbled. Without caring about pride or dignity, Misno turned and bolted.
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7ghifDgix
Misnan: "Get back here, Misno! Coward!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe99ubrsgBM
Martoyo: "Traitor!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCPbcsqjUL8
Gendon: "If you come back, bring me martabak!"
122Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vPntM4RQx
Rani and Rina just kept walking toward campus, chatting and laughing as if nothing had happened.
