Drive Hunt Begins

*** Mikhail's house ***

Although Mikhail had quit smoking five years ago, he was smoking a cigarette taken from a pack he kept to serve to guests on the balcony of his home, where he lived alone.

Like billions of people, he had watched the broadcast and prayed, but his close friend had died...

Although he heard the sound of his phone starting to ring in the living room, he continued to smoke his cigarette and watch the sky with dull eyes, but every time his phone was turned off, it started to ring again.

When the caller did not give up, he gave up and went to the living room and took the phone by looking at the screen. "HOLY FU.K!" He was in shock. <DANESH IS CALLING> This sentence was on the screen.

He hesitated to answer because his friend was dead...

Someone else was calling on his friend's phone. Who was he or she?... Or them?

He couldn't bear it and pushed the <Yes> button.

"Hi, gossip guy..."

Mikhail's eye got bigger...The cigarette fell to the floor...Only Danesh was calling him with this title... The sound had belonged to Danesh too.

"I think you watched the broadcast too. I do not have any explanation for that. I do not have much time either. The broadcast was triggered by my heart. It stopped and the broadcast became active. This phone call is the last piece of my <If I die> project. I still need your help. You live alone, you do not have any relatives. That's why I am putting you in danger now. I am sorry. My family is in danger. I need your help. Save my mother. There is a parking garage in the street where you live, as you know. A gray Hyundai Accent is there. Go there. There are scratches on its plate. You will see <CC> letters when you look at the scratches in detail. The key is inside of the front-right wheel rim. Get in the car and open the glove compartment. There is some stuff. A cellphone, a map, money, and some papers. You will see a location when you activate the phone. My mother is there. Find her and tell her <Your lazy son sent me>. Take her and go to the place which I marked on the map. You will get help when you get there. But do not stop until that time. Some people may try to stop you. Civilians or officials. Do not trust anyone. Only drive. I am sorry again for this problem. I know that you always wanted action. I know that this is also a lot. But I need you. I trust you, gossip guy. I know that it will hurt you like hell, but do not tell anyone about this. Destroy your phone now and go. Farewell, my friend..."

Mikhail was smiling because on this call there were little jokes such as <being quiet> that could be made specifically for a man who likes to talk and gossip like Mikhail. This was Danesh's work, obviously.

He spilled water on his cigarette on the floor, took out the SIM card, and after crushing it to destroy it, he threw his phone into a water-filled bottle, then took his coat and left the house...

*** Putri's office ***

Putri was still crying. Her boss, Farish, was still trying to calm her down.

Two cellphones began to ring at the same time.

They did not show attention in the beginning.

Her boss looked at the screen of his phone. "OF GOD!" he shouted. "Putri, HEY PUTRI!" he shouted.

Putri recessed her crying, looked at her boss's phone screen, and looked at herself too. Danesh's name was written on both of them.

They both answered their phones.

...Farish's call...

"Hello, Farish. We do not have a close relationship. We met only two times. But I knew that you had an affair with my sister. I respect it. I researched your background. You are a good guy. You live alone, you do not have anyone else in your life except my sister. That's why I chose you. You watched the broadcast, I assume. Bad guys will come for my sister. A car is waiting for you in the next building's car park to your office. A gray Hyundai Accent. <CC> letters have been written with scratches on its plate. The key is inside of the rear-left wheel rim. There is some stuff in the glove compartment. A cellphone, a map, money, and some papers. You will see the current location of my sister when you activate the phone. Find her if she's not with you now. Take her and go to the place which I marked on the map. You will get help when you get there. But do not stop until that time. Some people may try to stop you. Civilians or officials. Do not trust anyone. Only drive. Save my sister, please. And one last thing. Destroy your phone now. It is important..."

...Putri's call...

"Hi, my Putri. Please destroy your phone when this call has been finished. You watched the broadcast or people told you about it. I am sorry for these problems. I am sorry, I am a bad guy. Your life is at stake because of me... I wanted to do something good, at least before dying. I should do that to save people's lives. All humanity is in danger. I put your life at the stake to save humanity. There is no turning back for you too from now on. Your boss, Farish. Or your lover, I think. You kept it secret but I knew it from the beginning. I respect you. You trusted him. And you should trust him more. He is a good guy. He will come to save you, in my opinion. Go with him. You will get help soon...I love you..."

Putri and Farish looked at each other. They were in the middle of trouble.

"I trust my brother, Farish...He is not a bad guy..."

"This is not a good time to analyze it, Putri...Let's go!"

*** Another place in Kuala Lumpur ***

On the contrary, Nur, who had tears in her eyes, had an expression full of happiness and was even smiling. Even though it was a farewell phone call, and even though it was painful to hear his voice for the last time, she was happy to be able to hear her son's voice one last time who had just died...

...Nur's call...

"I am very sorry, mother. I don't know if you watch the broadcast. I am a bad guy. You did everything for me. This is not about you. But the result is this. I am a bad guy. I died as a bad guy and put your life at risk. You always told me this <There is always a way out. You can do bad things but you should do everything to change them back.> I kept my promise to you. I wanted to do something good at least. I put your life in danger to save millions of people's lives. People will come for you. For you and for Putri. You are in danger. Someone will come to help you. And some people will come to kill you too. You will realize the right guy by his speech. Go with him. It will be a dangerous trip but you will find peace soon. Please destroy your phone now. Your lazy son will love you forever...Farewell for now...I love you.."

"You are not a bad guy, my lazy son..." She said as if talking to Danesh...

All phone calls have ended with this one...

Danesh triggered another game...

To save his family...
