The System of Justice
For Arga Pratama, being an honest police officer in this city feels like living in hell. Time and time again, he uncovers solid evidence to put powerful criminals behind bars—only to watch it all end up in the trash. The suspects? Still partying in luxury bars, protected by powerful “insiders” and bottomless wallets.
The breaking point comes when Arga is forced to turn a blind eye after the son of a high-ranking official kills someone in a hit-and-run. Sick of being nothing more than a “guard dog” for corrupt elites, Arga slams his badge onto his superior’s desk. He believes quitting is the only way to remain human.
However, the world is far from merciful.
That very night, Arga loses the most precious thing in his life. His wife suffers a miscarriage after receiving relentless threats from the syndicate he had been investigating. In the cold hospital corridor, Arga can only sit in silence, staring at the ruins of his existence. No job. No authority. And now… no child.
At his absolute lowest point, a floating screen suddenly appears before his eyes:
[The Ultimate Detective System Activated.]
[Target Detected: Those Who Believe They Are Above the Law.]
Arga quickly realizes this is his only chance to rise again. Armed with a system capable of uncovering even the faintest traces of crime, he begins operating as a shadow detective. He does not just want to fix his shattered life—he wants every bastard who ever laughed at him to experience what true justice really means.
They once bribed the police to erase evidence.
Now, not a single secret can escape Arga’s eyes.
Because to Arga, justice no longer needs laws or articles—
It only needs flawless execution.

Chapter: Chapter 56 – External Intrusion Detected
“Because everything points to Arkan a little too perfectly,” Arga replied quietly.He slowly closed the black folder, then tapped Arkan’s photograph with the tip of his finger.“The hospital, the genetic project, the masked doctors, the military medical facility. Every piece of evidence was deliberately designed to lead us to him.” Arga narrowed his eyes. “And someone like Jamer Youghtor would never raise his children without keeping tabs on them. If Arkan were truly the mastermind, why would his tracks be left so openly exposed?”Mr. Wijaya fell silent.Arga continued, his voice growing lower.“On the other hand, Devon operates in the international logistics sector. Distribution routes. Illegal shipments. Containers without manifests. If the Anima Subiectum project required transporting babies, biological samples, or even living humans across borders without detection, Devon would be the perfect person for it.”Mr. Wijaya looked back at Devon’s photograph.“And one more thing,” Arga

Chapter: Chapter 55: The Apex of the Iceberg
Arga clenched his fists tightly until his knuckles turned bone-white. If the mastermind possessed a hacker capable of giving Rio—an IT genius—a hard time and nearly breaching his defences, it meant they weren't just dealing with a wealthy psychopath. Instead, they were up against a syndicate backed by a massive technological infrastructure."Rio, wipe all your digital footprints right now. "Don't take any risks," Arga ordered in a half-whisper, his eyes remaining alert as he scanned the parking area. "I don't want your system becoming their next target.""Don't worry, Uncle. I've already deployed multi-layered firewalls and self-destruct logs. But for the time being, I need to go offline from your communication line until I can bypass this clinic's jammer using a more secure frequency." Rio's voice grew increasingly drowned out by static interference. "Be careful out there, Uncle. Something big is—"Krrrshhh...Silence. The signal was completely cut off.Arga lowered his hand from his

The battle erupted beneath the flickering neon lights of the basement. The sound of gunfire echoed, bouncing off the concrete walls as the psychopath’s henchmen began to lose control. However, Arga stood his ground as bait, allowing bullets to whiz around him while his HUD system calculated every millisecond of their trajectories."Device attached! Rio, go in now!" Adrian roared after executing a tactical roll to dodge the strike of an opponent's iron pipe.[SYSTEM: NETWORK INTRUSION]Access OBD-II: Successful.Electrical Control: Overridden.Status: Spoofing the driver's cardiac vest sensor (Signal Loop)."Done! I’ve frozen the signal from the vest! You have 15 seconds before the Doctor’s backup system realizes there's a frequency loop!" Rio’s voice sounded on the verge of hysteria through the earpiece."Now!" Arga commanded.Amelia dashed forward with incredible agility. Instead of attacking the driver directly, she leapt toward the open cabin window. With a locking maneuver, she he

Amelia dashed down the emergency stairs. Meanwhile, at the exit gate, the situation had reached a breaking point.Adrian stood firmly in the middle of the exit lane, blocking a white van that was attempting to speed away. The driver slammed on the brakes, causing the tires to screech and leaving behind the pungent stench of burnt rubber."Get out of the way, idiot! Do you want to die?!" the driver screamed, pulling a pistol from inside his jacket.Adrian didn't flinch. He spun his tactical baton with surgical precision. "You aren't taking these babies one inch from here."The van's rear doors swung open. Four burly men jumped out, armed with blades and baseball bats."Ready to engage!" Adrian reported to Rio via his earpiece.Crash!Adrian initiated the attack. He ducked as a baseball bat swung over his head, then countered by slamming the tip of his baton into the opponent's shin. A sickening crack echoed, followed by a scream of agony. At that moment, three of Wijaya’s men who had a

Arga continued to flip through his audit files with practiced precision. His eyes moved nimbly as if verifying crucial figures, but his primary focus remained on the blue indicator in his breast pocket—wirelessly linked to his contact lens HUD.[SYSTEM: DATA ENCRYPTION & CLONING]Logistics Database: 65%... 80%...Medical Division Fund Flow: Complete.Secret NICU Patient List: Complete."Just a little more, Uncle," Rio whispered over the private comms channel. "The data coming in is insane. There's a shipping manifest labeled 'Biological Products' destined for a black-market pier north of the city. And according to the schedule, it’s supposed to go out in an hour!"Arga’s jaw tightened. He glanced at his watch. If this data was accurate, those infants were being prepared for transport right now."Done," Arga announced suddenly, his voice loud enough to startle the guards in the corner of the room.He slammed the heavy folder shut with a deliberate thud to break the silence.

Amelia followed Dr. Cecep toward the medical service elevator. Along the way, her sharp forensic senses picked up an unusual chemical scent far too pungent to be a standard hospital disinfectant."Rio," Amelia whispered almost inaudibly, her hand reaching up as if to adjust the collar of her white coat. "I’m heading toward the NICU. Dr. Cecep seems extremely agitated. The Truth Seeker on my system flashes red every time he mentions protocols.""Stay careful, Doctor. Stay alert," Rio’s voice replied from the other end. "Adrian is also at the hospital disguised as an office boy; he will ensure your safety. If anything happens, signal him immediately."Amelia gave a small hum in acknowledgment. "I haven’t been able to hack the hospital’s CCTV yet. Adrian will have to slip into the security room."Amelia continued walking with a steady, calm gait, even as the tension around her grew thicker. Dr. Cecep checked his watch several times; seeing the gesture, Amelia realized the doctor was expe

"Ma, Samson promises. Samson is going to repent; I won’t be a thug anymore. I'm going to find a real, honest job. So please, Ma, don't come back to haunt me, okay?" Samson knelt, tears streaming down his face, though his expression still looked like someone ready to pick a fight with the Angel of Death.
Bejo held out an umbrella. "Boss, it’s almost sunset. We need to go collect the 'protection money' from the cafe owner," he said.
"Hey, Bejo! I just promised Ma that I’ve repented. You little devil! Do you want my mother to rise from her grave because of what you just said, huh?!" Samson stood up. His towering height, nearly two meters, made Bejo instinctively jump back three steps.
"But Boss, our stomachs aren't exactly followers of the repentance movement," Bejo squeaked, trembling.
Samson wiped his fierce face. "From this second on, call me Samson the Protector. I’m going to find honest work. Anything! As long as I'm not shaking people down anymore."
A wealthy woman looked Samson up and down, scrutinizing him. "Your body is quite large. It just so happens I need a new guard dog. I just fired the old one because he was afraid of cockroaches."
Samson was ready to explode. "Hey, lady! You think I—"
"Fifty million a month. Meals are provided, and you get an Italian suit for a uniform. Interested?" the woman interrupted, handing him a gold-plated business card.
Samson fell silent.
He then whispered under his breath, "Ma, this is honest work, right? Just being a guard dog for a billionaire."

Chapter: CHAPTER 122: Cleansing the Empire
The following morning, the media wildfire that Richard and Samson had anticipated fully erupted.Precisely at six o’clock, every national television network abruptly preempted their regular programming to broadcast breaking news alerts. Social media platforms experienced an identical surge in traffic, with hashtags like #RoselandScandal, #BaskoroArrested, and #1TrillionEmbezzlement instantly claiming the top trending spots nationwide before rapidly migrating onto global financial feeds.The television screen mounted inside Rose’s newly claimed executive suite displayed a veteran journalist standing outside the Police Headquarters, his expression intensely serious."Viewers, a catastrophic shockwave has just rattled both the domestic and international corporate landscape. Baskoro Praditya, the high-profile tycoon commanding real estate giant Roseland Corp—and the husband of the late heiress Marlina Hutama—has reportedly been apprehended in a dramatic raid by a joint maritime task force

Chapter: CHAPTER 121: The Downfall of a Charlatan
Emran sat behind his majestic marble desk, staring at his laptop screen as cold sweat continuously poured down his temples. His heart hammered violently against his ribs. For the past two hours, both Baskoro’s and Feri’s mobile numbers had been completely unreachable. An ominous sensation began crawling up the back of his neck.Crash!The soundproofed double doors of his private office were suddenly forced open from the outside. Emran jolted in shock, nearly leaping out of his executive chair."Hey! What is the meaning of this?!" he shrieked. "Who authorized you to enter without my permission!"His secretary stepped forward with a pale face. "I am deeply sorry, sir. They forced their way in," she reported, her head bowed in panic.Four heavily built men dressed in formal batik shirts—with police investigator badges hanging visibly from their necks—marched in with synchronized precision. Directly behind them followed several tactical officers in full uniform, carrying a sealed official

Meanwhile, at a secluded minor harbor, a small crew was frantically loading assets into a weathered fishing vessel."Damn it, why is this taking so long? Get everything onboard now!" Baskoro barked, his fingers tightly clamped around a heavy black briefcase."I need to clear this country immediately!" he muttered, struggling to suppress his escalating rage. "That piece of trash Richard... he actually aligned himself with Rose!""Maintain your composure, sir. This is a black-market extraction route; if we panic, we risk alerting the local residents," countered a man in a grime-streaked t-shirt who was serving as his escape broker. He gestured toward a motorized fishing boat swaying unstable against the edge of a desolate wooden pier.Baskoro let out a harsh grunt. He yanked the brim of his cap lower, attempting to mask his features from a few local fishermen passing by with baskets of fish.Deep within his chest, a volatile mixture of fury and terror collided. He had just received a cr

Chapter: CHAPTER 119: The Silent Coup
Inside a private conference suite situated on the penthouse floor of a five-star hotel—sheltered entirely from Baskoro's intelligence radar—the atmosphere was thick with corporate friction. Faint plumes of cigar smoke drifted through the air, blending with the rich, bitter aroma of dark espresso.At the head of a massive mahogany boardroom table sat Richard, impeccably tailored in a sharp formal suit. His expression remained calm and calculated as his sharp gaze systematically audited the tense faces of the high-level board members and institutional investors who controlled the primary financial lifelines of Roseland Corp.This clandestine summit had been meticulously engineered by Richard, completely behind Baskoro's back."I am fully aware of the anxiety compelling everyone to gather in this room today," Richard initiated, his deep baritone cutting through the suffocating silence. His voice carried heavy command and absolute certainty. "The recent media firestorm surrounding Baskoro

Chapter: CHAPTER 118: Counter-Moves and Quiet Mornings
The moment he stepped out into the silent corridor, the faint smile on Samson’s face instantly vanished, replaced by hardened features. He crossed his arms and leaned against the cold wall directly beside Bianca’s door, which he had deliberately left slightly ajar.Perhaps this development was a blessing in disguise; Samson no longer had to maintain a fabrication. The girl now knew he wasn't her biological father, yet she chose to remain by his side because he represented absolute security. He would continue to shield her from her actual father, Andrew, until her amnesia fully resolved.Samson glanced down at his tactical wristwatch. It was 3:15 AM. The compounding fatigue and the sharp sting from the deep bruises sustained during the previous clashes began to assert themselves, yet his mind flatly refused to rest. Various tactical permutations and worst-case scenarios systematically organized themselves in his head.Samson walked toward the living room, approaching Ucok, who was deep

Chapter: CHAPTER 117: Identity and Empathy
"Noooo!"Bianca bolted upright, her breath hitching violently. Her heart hammered against her ribs as if she had just run a frantic marathon to escape death itself. A cold sweat saturated her entire body, causing her pajamas to cling uncomfortably to her skin.She pulled her knees tight against her chest, burying her face in them as quiet sobs escaped her lips. The unfamiliar, dimly lit bedroom slowly pulled her back to reality. She was no longer trapped in that living hell. She was secure. Yet, the phantom pain lingering from the nightmare felt terrifyingly real, leaving a deep-seated trauma that continued to grip her soul.Meanwhile, in the adjacent room, Samson had just finished drying his hair with a towel. He was about to lie down on his bruised, aching body when his trained ears caught a faint, muffled shriek, followed closely by weeping from the next room—the bedroom occupied by Bianca.Without wasting a single second, Samson threw on a plain black t-shirt and rushed out.
