4. Mysterious phone calls

A ringtone song that ruined the atmosphere of the misty night sounded from inside his trouser pocket.  Mori immediately took his cell phone, but in his hurry, the cell phone jumped from his hand which luckily could still be caught before falling into the mud.  "Wait a minute ma'am,"  Mori said to Mrs. Bunga which was also meant for the other members.  Mori was silent, just listening to the caller but suddenly.  "What was the name of the beautiful and sexy police officer at the office, ma'am?"  asked Mori after being silent for a moment when he received an incoming call, causing the nine members to sigh in annoyance and then scatter a few meters from the group.

"Where did this kid's mind go?" Mr. Ali muttered.

"Surely he was thinking dirty earlier and the one who called must be Jojo the hentai!"  Alysa hissed, getting annoyed again.

 Mrs. Bunga sighed.  "Ignore him, Yandri, you call the team that has gone deep into the forest."

"Okay ma'am!"

Mori, who was still in contact with the caller, spoke again with the cell phone still attached to his left ear.  "Ma'am, what's the name of that beautiful policeman?  Beautiful cops need to be called…"

  "Do not listen to him!"  said Mrs. Bunga quickly.

"Okay, if no one wants to hear,"  said Mori casually as he walked away from the group, putting back his cell phone.  He must have pretended to be sulky, thinking that some members had reminded Mrs. Bunga and Alysa that Mori was joking.  Mori disappeared into the mist just a few meters out of sight.

"Don't go far if you sulk,"  exclaimed Mr. Ali.

 No answer.  One minute later, it was unusual for Mori to be silent without answering beforehand.

"Mori, don't joke!"  called Mr. Ali walked in the direction Mori disappeared behind the fog earlier.  Several other members approached Mr. Ali.  Five minutes later, it was the longest time Mori used to sulk and because it was unusual, Mr. Ali and Alysa could already guess what had happened.  Mori's words asking for the name of the beautiful police he saw in the post an hour ago must be related.

"Mori, where are you?  Don't joke, okay, nights in the woods?"  cried Alysa when Mori picked up the phone after several calls. Mori's cell phone was always busy, and sometimes the signal was lost in the middle of the forest.

[I'm on my way to the pretty cops…] came his voice over the loudspeaker.

 "Don't joke you..." interrupted Mrs. Bunga.

[I'm not joking Mrs. Bunga, I've tried to inform you in advance about the beautiful police and her members who need to be withdrawn immediately, but no one wants to hear as usual. Being a child is no fun in the eyes of adults, as all words fall on deaf ears.  I actually don't dare to go into the forest alone.  The forest is dark, cold, and...]

 The phone line was disconnected and despite repeated calls, the incoming call was not picked up at all. Because there's no signal in the forest.

*** 

In front of the frozen Mori, a pair of yellow lights appeared.  His cell phone rang again, Mori looked at his cellphone screen which was without a name out a caller number like before.  Mori received the incoming phone call.  "Yes..."

 [Do not be afraid.  Follow the light of his eyes.]

"Okay..." Mori replied as he slowly walked towards the pair of yellow lights in front of him.  Mori's slow steps were forced to quicken back into running when the pair of yellow lights moved swiftly to force him to run.  While running in the dark forest and muddy because of the rain, Mori several times tripped over the roots.  The police jacket lent to him was dirty with mud when he fell.

After an hour of running in the forest and falling several times, Mori finally stopped running following a pair of yellow lights that guided him to a fairly spacious place without trees or shrubs.  In that place, Mori finally found another search team who was resting, one of the members was the beautiful and sexy Police.  Mori smiled seeing the beautiful police.

The other search team looked in disbelief, mixed with relief at Mori.  Because it had been almost two hours since they were just circling and fortunately it was soon realized if they had entered the forbidden area by accident.

"There is a child?!"  another search team leader exclaimed. A tall male policeman with brown skin, stood up quickly to Mori, holding Mori's shoulders.  "How did you find us?"

"You're the kid who came this afternoon right?"  A beautiful and sexy female police officer also approached Mori.

The search team leader and the rest of the team glanced at the beautiful female Police, then looked back at Mori who nodded once.  "Good, then we have been found!  How about the team members you were with, boy?"

 Mori shook his head.  "I left them when they were just starting out!"

"So you just found us yourself?!"  The search team leader no longer thought too much about himself and his group when he found out that the child in front of him was alone in the forest to find them.  The other search team leader noticed that Mori's jacket was very dirty, he was also cold and looked very tired.  

The search team leader asked his medical team to examine and clean up Mori who might have been injured when he fell.  After the abrasions and scratches on Mori's hands were cleaned and treated, the other search team leader gave Mori his clean jacket so that the child would no longer be cold wearing a dirty and wet jacket.  "Put this jacket on…"

Mori looked at the search team leader who was still thrusting his jacket in front of Mori.

 "It's fine, just wear it."

 "It's not like that, sir, the jacket that I just wore is already too big, especially your jacket which is almost two meters tall!"

 "Hah…"

The sound of a cell phone breaking the silence of the night with the song System of a Down sounded from Mori's pants pocket.  "Ah, wait a minute, sir, I think "He" has called again,"  Mori said before picking up the incoming phone without a number.

A few moments later after Mori finished receiving the incoming call.  "Who's calling, using a private number?"  asked the beautiful and sexy policewoman curiously when she briefly glanced at Mori's cell phone.

"He", who guided me to where you were."  Answered Mori.

 "Haaa..." cried some police officers hearing Mori's answer.

 "I mean, one of the good spirits in this forest, who guided my way to this place."

 "BY PHONE?!"  exclaimed all the search teams at the same time.

 Mori nodded.  "I also didn't understand at first how 'He' could communicate over the phone.  But, fine, that's a sign that 'He' is slang."  Obviously Mori relaxed.

 "So now what?  What did he say?"  asked the search team leader impatiently.

Mori looked at the faces of each member of the search team, then said.  "'He' told us to find an ancient tomb, because that's where the missing people are!"
