Searching

In the previous chapter, Lisa met with Maria to discuss her new project, the adaptation of Let me choose you. Lisa and Maria discussed what to do as a producer because it was Lisa's first project as a film producer. After they talked, Lisa chatted with the author of Let me choose you to talk about Maria's involvement. Omar said that he recruited Maria for no reason and he showed an interesting commentary to Lisa.

"So, you know the identity of this Flower Blossom?", Asked Lisa.

"Unfortunately no. If only there were people I knew who were experts in IT, I would have asked him to trace this person's ID."

"Oh, I see. But, is there any reason for you to decide to choose Maria as the director?"

Omar looked a little worried about Lisa's question.

"So, some time ago… Maria visited my office. She came with her bodyguards, but there is something strange about her bodyguards."

"Strange?"

"Yes, that's strange. Usually, the bodyguards we know, they wear black suits, right?"

"Yes."

"But they're topless."

Huh? Topless?

"What kind of bodyguard is topless?"

"Well, I don't know about that. They could be yakuza."

"Yakuza?"

"You don't know yakuza?"

"No."

"Yakuza is associate of a multinational prepared crime syndicate from Japan. The Japanese yakuza call themselves "Knights". The Yakuza are knowing for their behavior and some rituals. This group is still well thought-out one of the most complex criminal organizations."

"Crime syndicate? So what are they doing?"

"The Yakuza are considering a semi-legitimate organization. For example, it gave itself up to keep disaster services. For this reason, many Yakuza consider their hustle and a collection of feudal taxes."

"Then, what else?"

"The Yakuza and gangs of affiliates control drug trafficking in Japan, particularly methamphetamine. While many syndicates, especially they prohibit their members from engaging in a drug."

"I've heard about the news about some of the syndicate."

"Aah, ok. I understand."

Lisa understands Omar's Yakuza meaning, then she tries to think of a way to find out what Maria did to Jackson. Lisa feels that she wants to put an end to Maria's career because it ruined Jackson's career.

I have to find out what Maria did to Jackson.

"I better go first, Lisa. I still have work to do.", Said Oemar as he got up from his chair.

"Okay, bye. Thank you for talking to me about Maria."

Omar answered only with a smile.

After talking with Oemar, Lisa immediately went home and got a message from her mother.

Mother: Lisa, I want to tell you something.

Lisa: What, mom?

Mother: I don't seem to be coming home for a few months. So mom will get Isaac to escort you in the house for this month.

Lisa: Ok, be careful.

Lisa returns home, it turns out that Issac is already at home with Jasmine. Where their position is sitting on the sofa while watching television. Jasmine noticed Lisa's arrival and greeted her, "Hey, Lisa. Welcome."

"Hi, Jasmine. Hi Isaac."

"Hey, Lisa."

Lisa went straight upstairs.

Meanwhile in the living room...

"I hope that boy is fine with his mental health.", Said Jasmine.

"Who?", Asked Isaac.

"That, my patient.", Said Jasmine, pointing at the television screen with Jackson's display.

"Your patient is Jackson? Why didn't you tell me?" Isaac got up from the sofa and immediately left Jasmine.

"Wait, Isaac. Don't tell her yet.", Her hand held Isaac's hand.

Isaac feels bad about Lisa and Jasmine.

"Come on, tell me about it.", Issac sat back on the sofa and turned off the television.

"So, his father is my friend from high school. He introduced Jackson to me after I graduated from medical school. He asked me to guide him in his psychology.

Reportedly he has Bipolar, Issac. I don't know myself if I can fix the psychologist even if he tries to stay calm?"

"Yes. You know, if only Lisa hadn't heard us talking. I'm afraid she will hate Jackson after hearing the words you said."

Then they immediately got up from the sofa and went to the guest room.

In the room, Lisa is going to social media and looking for the username Flower Blossom.

Okay, Flower Blossom. Come on, show me your identity.

Click per click she did dig up information about the identity of Flower Blossom. When looking at their bio, she felt that there was something strange.

Why is it written in the school section that they attended Pramuwijaya High School? Who are they?

It also appears that their gender was not informed, wanting to protect their privacy.

"Hmm, they went to Pramuwijaya High School, right? Looks like it will be interesting if I send them a text."

Lisa: Hello, this is Lisa Hanugrah.

Lisa: Looks like we've never met, nice to meet you.

Flower Blossom: Hello too, Lisa.

Lisa: Is it true that you sent a message to Oemar about the Let Me Choose You project?

Flower Blossom: That's right. I don't want my mom to direct the adaptation. She was very bad at treating the actors he chose. I hope you can understand why she is so mean.

Lisa: Oh, yeah? What did she do?

Flower Blossom: She gives Jackson a sleeping pill that is already mixed with a drug.

Lisa: W-what?

Flower Blossom: Yes.

So, he got sleeping pills laced with drugs by Maria?

Lisa: Ok…

Flower Blossom: How about we meet sometime at school? I know this is strange even though I also never showed my identity, but I want to discuss this with you someday.

Lisa: Agreed.

Flower Blossom: Okay, bye.

Flower Blossom is offline.

"Okay, this kid looks good. I have to keep finding out."

Who exactly is this Flower Blossom?
