5. THE VICTIM ( ENG )

Chapter 12

"Because you're an eyewitness who made John free at the time." Knot said.

"WHATTT ???" Tew and Bright were shocked until their mouths were not closed for a while and Kongpop sat silent and frozen. A few flashes of the past approached his thoughts.

FLASHBACK ON

Kongpop final student law college,should  he no longer bother with the cost of college and exam but all his dreams vanished when knowing that the scholarship fell into the hands of others. Kongpop students who excel but either because there is interference of others or indeed his fate again unlucky until he did not get a scholarship in the final level.

How do I get 25,000 baths now?

Kongpop running frustrated, accidentally saw the accident hit and run in the night. At that time the streets were pretty quiet, there was only a Kongpop and several people who saw the incident. He saw a young man coming out of there running away without seeing his victim. Several people and Kongpop tried to save the girl but in vain because the girl died on the spot.

A few days later, the slum apartment was visited by someone from the Rojnapat family. They give 1 million baht in front of him and if Kongpop does not accept it then there is a threat that Kongpop will be killed. They gave a photograph of a rather elderly man and asked Kongpop to testify that the man was a hit-and-run runner that night.

Despair will earn money for his tuition, fear will be killed if he refused and angry because he could not obey his heart desire for losing the status of the rich man. Life is very hard lived by Kongpop who had to fight alone since childhood.

Kongpop and several others testified as the request of the Rojnapat family regardless of the consequences of his testimony. He saw a young man named John Rojnapat smiling joyfully but deceitfully declared free at the time.

Since then Kongpop has justified various ways until he has his current status, as a reliable lawyer.

FLASHBACK OFF

"You ..." Tew was about to hit Kongpop who had explained his case.

"Stop Tew ... He also does not know this karma will turn to him." Bright holds Tew. "Now what do we think about how to free Arthit?"

Knot and Tew nodded to justify Bright statement and Kongpop fell silent. Because him Arthit hurt now. Because him Arthit trapped by someone else. And because him Arthit suffered.

"Why did you defend Arthit?" Asked Knot who had slightly softened his anger.

"I'm indebted." Answer Kongpop slowly.

"Only indebtedness?" Knot raised an eyebrow.

"Tell the truth Kongpop." Bright proposal.

"I love him."

A frenzy is seen inside the hospital where a patient has disappeared from his room. Probably would not be this chaos if the ordinary patient but the missing patient is a suspect patient in case of rape. Arthit Rojnapat.

"How could he disappear?" Ask the head of the hospital to all his employees. The reputation of his hospital could be destroyed if the news spread to the wider community.

"We do not know." Said one of the nurses.

"CCTV roomed and driven has been broken." Answer security.

"This is mess ... messed up ..." the head of the hospital hit his desk.

"Call the person whose responsible for Arthit Rojnapat." The hospital head order.

"Already, but I have not been able to reach him."

"Call the others."

"Okay, we'll get in touch with the people who visit him often, Kongpop Suthiluck."

"What? He has something to do with Kongpop Suthiluck, please call him or the hospital will shut it up, he's a dangerous man." The head of the hospital shuddered at the name of Kongpop Suthiluck, knowing even enough that Kongpop Suthiluck could make this hospital close with a single charge.

"Fine."

The Kongpop phone rang.

"Hello.."

"..........."

"Right, I'm Kongpop."

".........."

"WHAT? ARTHIT MISSING?" Shouted Kongpop who made his surroundings shocked once more. A day full of surprises according to Bright.

".........."

"HOW CAN HE MISSING ? WHAT DID YOU DO?"

"..........."

"NO ONE SAW HIM ? CCTV IS ALSO DESTROYED."

".........."

"FINE, I UNDERSTAND."

Kongpop slammed his cell phone into the couch. His Arthit disappeared. His Arthit kidnapped someone. He was sure of that. He squeezed his hair in frustration. One by one the problem came to him today.

Soon his cell phone got a message from an unknown number.

Come to the xxx warehouse on xxx street. Or I am irresponsible if something happens to them.

Them? Who else ? - Kongpop.
