19-1 Nagini, Bimo's First Target
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxEaZalw4Y
A tall, broad-shouldered man with a buzz cut stood on a rooftop, watching the building across from him.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnfdbq2LEFf
His hands worked deftly, assembling a long-barreled sniper rifle from a black case.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf3KyzDayBg
He set the rifle at the edge of the window, barrel pointing toward the opposite building.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQE0puPVUTL
Suddenly, his phone rang. The screen displayed one word: Broto.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4J0LkSylLn
Broto: "Hey, Bimo. Are you in position?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDg7F2ey7F7
Bimo: "Yes, Boss."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAjOfuYxnn
Broto: "Do you have visual on the target?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9bPrCekvCP
Bimo: "Yes. The target's name is Nagini. She's in the building across, well within my scope."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC3gdLftYrs
Bimo peered through the rifle's scope. Far away, in the opposite building, Nagini was brushing her hair.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2TMUJxqLb6
Broto: "Do you see the other target?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLVJJ6B4TsJ
Bimo: "You mean Burhan?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVvDyiTe4o
Broto: "Exactly."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpjhxjf29VM
Bimo shifted his aim toward the parking area.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmduhv12aSC
There, Burhan had just stepped out of his car and was walking toward the apartment.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCEgzG60yf
Bimo: "The second target is moving toward the apartment."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl8PJ95iGf
Broto: "Wait for the right moment. Then take them both out."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkDx8UgoB1V
Bimo: "Understood, Boss."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB1a7I9XSPV
Bimo ended the call, refocused, finger resting lightly on the trigger, eyes fixed through the scope.

19-2 Burhan, Bimo's Second Target
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1H0LYa6HGM
Knock! Knock!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVGcbhcBE3
Burhan rapped on the apartment door. Moments later, it opened.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZbxJRXH2A0
Nagini: "Come in, Burhan."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy7q8cJdYQM
Burhan smiled and stepped inside. But something about Nagini felt… off.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSkVtrqi6WQ
Her hand never left the grip of a slender, deadly No. 3 poisoned needle—the most lethal one she carried.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGajn3gx0zW
Burhan: "Nagini, I was thinking of taking you to Taman Mini today."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbZ101NrPpw
Nagini: "I know. Give me a moment to get ready."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZpKvc6e8C
Burhan noticed her hand starting to glow faint blue. The air inside the apartment grew colder.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVwcJnhva2
Nagini: "Burhan, get down! Now!"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡleLwrvV3Jg
Burhan froze, confused. His eyes stayed locked on her glowing hand as the temperature dropped sharply, like ice creeping into every corner.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwjipFzE8cw
But then he realized—Nagini wasn't threatening him. She was on alert.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbhO0r2GEC
Without further question, he dropped flat to the floor.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvpGOGWf0Wm
The poisoned needle in her hand shimmered with an icy blue aura—the sign she was channeling her full inner energy.

19-3 Poison Needle vs. Sniper Bullet
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNs0FoRp9f
Meanwhile…
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ48brH4T4ax
Bimo's eye stayed glued to the scope from across the street.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOru5Qr2J9h
Bimo: "Damn it! The second target is behind the wall."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5UjzDvhiL8
Through the scope, he could only see Nagini.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgIJuDXnngD
Without hesitation, he squeezed the trigger.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4CHVYKw7RH
Bang!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd9DlZJc9GM
The bullet tore through the air toward Nagini.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pj59ypPbt
At that exact moment, guided by an almost supernatural instinct, Nagini flicked her wrist and released the No. 3 poisoned needle.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocOr8XNu9B
The needle shot forward, trailing a gust of icy wind.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11ojJd6HVj
Crack!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7v46gT2t0
The bullet shattered the apartment's window.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQNDaAd8qnc
Blarrr!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPoGumjYlE
A sharp spark exploded midair as the poisoned needle collided with the bullet.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhbeec2zgi
Plunk!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkx2qLBqKyk
The bullet dropped harmlessly to the floor—barely an arm's length from Burhan's face.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvB3G0nUWtk
Burhan's eyes went wide. His face turned pale.

19-4 The Sniper Disabled
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJqLOAhimhR
From his position, Bimo saw something impossible through the scope.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiZWYVgLgh
His sniper bullet—capable of punching through steel—had been deflected by a mere needle.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlRYuZzToXb
Bimo: "No way…"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGOvDdlJtFU
A cold sweat trickled down his forehead. His hands trembled.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ob7OoP6Qf
Bimo: "Am I… dreaming?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0IMXymfw0K
He quickly readied for a second shot, finger returning to the trigger.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtypIqbxSRt
But inside the apartment, Nagini had already swung her hand toward the rooftop where Bimo was hiding.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMHVqBsJtP
Through the scope, he caught a fleeting glimpse of something small streaking toward him.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ67qVqvyTUm
It moved fast.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL21Xzbnfuh
Too fast.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8YSzLdPvr
Only when it was close did he realize—
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DuqzmfeWl
It was a needle.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33w6LU9oiU
Too late!
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSOwKi7lcZ
Before he could pull the trigger, the needle struck his neck.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp1NKhvEF4V
Bimo collapsed instantly, unconscious.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQLRTjrT2xi
His rifle clattered to the floor beside him.

19-5 Tono Arrives Too Late
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsKmKUVq8qT
Burhan called Tono on his phone.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfr2mYCCzrn
Burhan: "Hello, Tono. Can you check the Sari Bahari Building on Tendean Street 3?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pzUyUdv1s
Tono: "What's going on, Burhan?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVsOr9mtNj
Burhan: "A sniper just failed to take me and Nagini out."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHiKa9QT4t
Tono was shocked.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyYGEFtbQ8
Tono: "Are you both alright?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7OWWadMavf
Burhan: "Yes, we're fine."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ8Q2J5F1E
Tono: "Alright. We're heading there now."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡii2RfH9Rw9
Burhan: "You've got two hours."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ04HMMOeHav
Tono: "Understood, Burhan."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXKjOwg9y6
Burhan hung up, then turned to Nagini with curiosity.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMSrJLHNL9
Burhan: "Nagini, how did you do it?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHVHKRnHMS
Nagini: "You mean catching the bullet?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPMp9GikTxx
Burhan: "Yeah."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTD92PTkwkS
Nagini: "It took years of harsh training to reach this stage."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZS4EHDVPr
Burhan simply nodded, then changed the subject.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqSosGcySv3
Burhan: "Are we still going ahead with our plan to visit Taman Mini?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDk2btNdBGM
Nagini: "Yes, why not?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVUJQgHkaZK
Burhan gave a faint smile at Nagini's spirit.

60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp9hVweL7ce
From the rooftop, Tono waved at Burhan in the opposite building.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYUpQsHguOA
Tono and several members of the Densus 88 unit captured Bimo.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtq07IHqTSW
Suddenly, Tono's phone rang. The screen showed Burhan's name.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPxBYD9b0nz
Tono chuckled while glancing at the other building before picking up.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡigrV6JbKhA
Burhan: "Hey, Tono. Make a report for me, will you?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWUNixYbYN
Tono: "Sure, Burhan. But you still have to make your own report too."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJECWEWhSn
Burhan: "Of course, Tono. Honestly, I just wanted to take Nagini out for a bit of fun today."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK86LvdhP42
Tono: "Alright, Burhan. Have a good time."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6Yt3mAZgp

19-7 Sawitri on Nagini's Mind
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOxo5Ldjjn
Burhan drove slowly. Nagini sat beside him, watching the road.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wrQEvymXv
Nagini: "Burhan, any news about Sawitri?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV4GdtWcnFP
Burhan: "She's still in Jakarta, Nagini."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTqXgdGlQ3D
Nagini: "I'm worried about her."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDo2AZVZw5C

60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOCbCIERIUf
Burhan: "We need the right information before making a move."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeC1ZhsTAYw
Nagini listened quietly.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUX2rxtyR5z
Burhan slowed down as they approached a toll booth. Nagini glanced at a road sign:
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xE8S7syyQ

17-8 Picnic at Taman Mini
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWxip1Vu85
Taman Mini was bustling with visitors today. Children, parents, and families filled the park—it was Sunday, after all.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70U1etNgfk
On a park bench in the corner, Burhan and Nagini sat chatting.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9IBRqk4bO
Nagini: "It's so crowded today, Burhan."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CdFuxFE4y

60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9FoLlIDM97
Nagini smiled and pinched Burhan's waist.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJulmjFXejp
Nagini: "I'm still worried about Sawitri, and here you are joking around."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJX0sJuW5d
Burhan chuckled.

This time Nagini couldn't hold back her laughter and pinched Burhan several more times.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ427i8MGNw0
Nagini: "Stop it, Burhan. Quit talking nonsense."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7RYt2LFrYK
Burhan grinned mischievously.

Nagini: "Still trying to flirt with an old lady?"
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnwXb5kAgim
Burhan laughed softly.

Nagini: "I'm from the 16th century, Burhan… that's 500 years ago."
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbiBjsWoF8V
Burhan smiled faintly.
60Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOUApjryei

Although he didn't yet know Nagini's true origins, Burhan took her claim of being 500 years old as a joke.
