Won is Dead

Max hit the mad dog so hard that it couldn't move anymore. Max then searches around where Bayusuta is. As he flips over, he finds Bayusuta at gunpoint and neck strangled by an unknown person. Behind that person were two other mad dogs. They're human, but their power is like an animal.

"We're just following Bayu. We're sure he'll see you soon. We're the ones whispering you're the prime suspect in Bibi's murder," said the woman with a smiley face.

She's a woman, but strangely, the scent of her blood mixed with animal blood, Max's smell moves because of his defensive instincts.

Suddenly someone shot and his shot hit the woman's arm precisely to free Bayusuta from a severe choke. The woman retreated, avoiding other shots directed at her. Two of his guard dogs aimed the attack on the shooter. Their movements are fast.

Max also dodges stray bullets and searches for the person who did it. He saw Won using a long-barreled rifle shooting at the two dogs until it lay down. However, a few seconds later, the two dogs had woken up again, including one he had hit, and Max was even more shocked to see their physique recover as usual in a short time. Won aimed his shot again at the mad dogs.

"Go! I will block them!" shout Won. "Don't trust anyone! Remember that!"

Won kept shooting. His actions lasted in just a few seconds, as the woman who had strangled Bayusuta emerged from an invisible place and slashed Won's neck until it broke. Won's head rolled to the floor. While the trunk of his neck spurted blood. Won's body collapsed after a few seconds of shock. The woman enjoyed the action.

After seeing Won slashed, Max holds a grudge against the fierce woman. Max gathers the Magi energy and turns into a half-demon. He attacked the violent woman. His estimate of the blow was accurate but it turned out to be missed. The woman can move quickly to avoid it.

"Good, I do have to paralyze you," shouted the woman as she continued to draw a sword. Max fends off, dodges, and tries to break the woman's neck as the flight distance gets closer. He used his five sharp nails as a split blade.

The woman was aroused by the fight. He felt Max was an attractive opponent so didn't want to rush to end the fight. He kept defending and fighting. At the same time, he also moved his three still conscious dogs. The dog that Max had previously hit regained consciousness.

"Shit!"

Although he has human blood, it seemed like Max didn't feel guilty about calling others trash. Earlier he attacked, punched, kicked until the dogs were unable to move. Max turned fiercely at the woman who witnessed the fight while laughing. Max pushed forward but the woman managed to dodge again. So, the woman saw the murder as entertainment!

"I think I'm going to win this fight and I'm going to take you easily to headquarters," the woman exclaimed haughtily.

By the time the woman raised her sword, the bullet hit her until there was a spark. The woman and Max were both shocked. They turned to the source of the gunshots. Bayusuta is leaning against the wall pointing his gun at the woman who is swinging the sword at Max.

Annoyed at being bullied, the woman makes Bayusuta the target of her slash. Max realized the opponent's direction was changing, so he quickly darted off, carrying Bayusuta to dodge the woman's attack. He took Bayusuta's gun. Max had an idea to escape. He put Bayusuta in a safe place then quickly threw his car at the woman. When the car was in the air, Max could see where the gas tank was and shoot it. The shots were accurate until they made an explosion. The fire raged in the basement. The woman growled sharply, raging at the fire, but the flames raged more strongly thus hindering the woman's steps. Max took that opportunity to escape. He did not leave Bayusuta. He ran with Bayusuta on his shoulder.

At a location that was already very far from the fight, Max took down Bayusuta. They were on the rooftop of a restaurant. That woman wouldn't be desperate to kill everyone here, would she?

Max thought when he saw the surroundings. He saw the traditional market of people's houses, as well as the shophouses around the rooftop where he landed.

"Where are we?"

"Pinan, we can eat down later," Max said casually.

Bayusuta chuckled. He pulled out a cigarette from a pack of cigarettes that was slid in the back pocket of his pants. He tried hard to light a match because the wind was quite hard bothering him. The cigarette was burned after he turned his back on the wind.

"Tell me, what happened?"

Bayusuta breathed cigarette smoke into the air. His lungs didn't seem ready to accept nicotine at the time. He's coughing.

After being able to control his cough, Bayusuta spoke again, "Won, I saw it." He coughed again. His cigarette made things worse but he didn't want to let go, as if it was the only one that could relieve the stress of the moment.

Max hit the wall. Bayusuta observed the fist. The walls are cracked and some of the material is falling.

"I'm the one asking here, what's going on? We talked about a corpse that you said wasn't Bibi, Won gave me a fingerprint sample to research, then after that, I remember you yelling at me, then the creatures sprung up, who were they? And the woman slashed Won's neck," Bayusuta said with a red face. Despite trying to organize events in his memory, his tongue spoke randomly.

"You don't remember handcuffing me?"

"No! I don't remember that part. I remember being so angry with you because you hid an important fact!"

"The person who gives you information to you is the same person who beheaded Won," Max said in an angrily suppressed voice. He thought of Won being left behind and possibly burning at the scene of the fight because his body was very close to the exploding car. He regretted the situation that had passed.

On the other hand, Bayusuta didn't want to grieve, he pushed Max against the wall and surprisingly gripped the collar of his jacket. "What are you hiding?"

"Calm down. I also need to know what you found."

Bayusuta stared fixedly at Max's eyes. Max in front of him felt different. Slowly he released his grip even though there was little sign of Max he knew was the same person in front of him.

"You changed. You look like them. What kind of person are you? I knew something strange about you a long time ago, but I didn't expect it to be that strange," Bayusuta said as he worked hard to accept the reality now. Bayusuta chuckled, "It used to be... When I was a kid, I thought you were a vampire."

"You're affected by the movie," sneered Max. " Give me one," said Max, asking for a cigarette

Bayusuta takes out a pack of cigarettes to Max and lends him a match. They regulated each other's consciousness while smoking cigarettes for a few moments without speaking.

"So that corpse isn't Bibi?"

"You've got a fingerprint sample, find out who she is."

"I can already guess the identity of the woman, it must be one of the members of the Bawah Tanah, that underground club," Bayusuta said as he sat on the floor.

"No, I'll know her if she's from Bawah Tanah."

Max's words resuscitate Bayusuta that everyone who will work underground must pass Max's final selection. He snorted.

"We need to know what it has to do with Bibi and to know that, we need to know the name, address, and who is closest to her, as well as what her activities are," Max said with a straightforward look. "What do you know about those crazy experiments?"

"Bah! Should I have asked, you are the Bawah Tanah Club founders instead of asking me?"

"In reality, there's nothing like it there," Max denied calmly.

"Then the evidence I found and pointed to is false?"

"Someone might point you at me," said Max, who then knew the exact reason why Bayusuta placed handcuffs over his arm and was easily incited by the vicious woman.

"What evidence corroborates me as a suspect?"

"There is no direct evidence. I connected Bibi's body in the hotel and then I found out all along that you and the owner of the hotel were competing fiercely about illegal business, so I started to find reasons to ensnare you two," Bayusuta said in a mocking tone. "Then about the experiment... I heard rumors, there's a bunch of mad scientists hiding in Bawah Tanah, they want to unite human cells with animal cells, and make humans superpowers with it. They also found samples of rare creatures like demons or whatever, I can't believe that, all I believe is one thing that it's just the language of your symbol to circulate drugs or sell humans!" Bayusuta spoke while moving his index finger at Max. Both of his eyes glared as if he was about to come out of his socket. His neck muscles stiffened and his teeth rusted.
