Chapter 1 - Chapter one : Shadow Justice

Life's journey, like a colorful woven fabric, is not always open to the embrace of beauty or serene comfort. It brings joy and happiness, but also carries the burden of sadness, the test of suffering, and challenges that test one's courage.

Amidst the hardships and discomfort, there are opportunities for growth and development. Challenges and difficulties, inseparable from life, shape resilience, wisdom, and steadfast determination. In facing trials, we learn to overcome fear, shoulder responsibilities, and unearth hidden strengths within ourselves.

The lack of consistent beauty in life imparts lessons on diversity and uniqueness. Every soul carries a different life story, and through this vibrant existence, we understand the values of pluralism, tolerance, and empathetic understanding. Amidst the difficulties we experience, I learn to appreciate differences and find strength in collaboration and the embrace of empathy.

True beauty often flourishes amidst less graceful circumstances. In the depths of darkness, light is more cherished. In moments of sorrow and suffering, closeness, compassion, and hope give birth to strength.

Moreover, the absence of constant beauty in life teaches wisdom in uncertainty. Despite our continuous efforts to plan and control everything, reality proves the dominance of unpredictability.

Life's path cannot be predicted; we can only live it and appreciate what has happened. That is the driving force in my life at present. Currently, I reside in an apartment in the capital city of Rantau Cendana. Although not large or luxurious, I am grateful for my current circumstances.

I work as a private detective often called upon by the local police to handle challenging unsolved cases. Sometimes, these cases take me to territories inaccessible to ordinary people. Furthermore, some of these cases threaten my life.

I was once offered the role of a spy due to my ability to disguise and overcome obstacles in a case. However, I declined the offer. I did not want to endanger my life for such matters and assist those who took away my father.

The current case is relatively easy for me, and I can solve it within a few days with all my abilities.

When the holiday arrived after all those cases, Bripka (Chief Police Brigadier) secretly met me. Bripka is my foster father who always provides me with jobs in the police force.

He met me and gave me a significant case. This case involves the police force and even the current minister. The police force alone cannot handle this case, as someone more powerful than my foster father will surely try to halt the investigation.

My foster father spoke with utmost caution, considering he is also part of the police force itself. After a lengthy conversation about this matter, my foster father inquired about my mother and siblings in the village. He is deeply concerned about my family, especially after my biological father was murdered by someone from the government while working alongside my foster father. Due to this, I became a detective to find out who killed my father.

Both of them are close and sometimes work together to eradicate all forms of crime in this country. However, when my father discovered something suspicious and intended to report it, he was found dead with gunshot wounds, his body tied, and abandoned in a distant warehouse far from where he last called my foster father.

Remembering this, I accept the case with the hope of uncovering all forms of injustice in this country.
