Summary:
Malaysian authorities become wary due to increasing enmity between Al-Qaeda and the new terrorist organization, the Khilafat al-Islam because it can damage the tourist industry in Malaysia and spread radicalism across the country. Subsequently, the Malaysian government orders the crackdown on both of them, giving Kid and Nikov a surprising advantage. Al-Qaeda leaders flee to East Malaysia however after being informed with hope to escape to the Philippines. Meanwhile, Khatag Safawi seeks to escape to Thailand. Kid and Nikov have to capture Khatag with help from the McFlanagan couple while Inspector Lim has to seek special support to destroy the Al-Qaeda cell. But their hope to finally seize Khatag is damaged after corrupt police was found to have provided shelter and gateway for Khatag. Because of it, Khatag finally manages to escape.
Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
The shocking clash between Al-Qaeda and the Khilafat militants in Negeri Sembilan had been very affecting. Although Pedas is just a lone city town and little interested for tourists, this attack culminated the wary among Malaysian officials. This resulted with punitive measures being persuaded in Malaysian parliament.

"Serangan di Negeri Sembilan membuktikan bahawa, terdapat banyak orang yang tidak dapat mengasimilasi masyarakat Malaysia. Saya akan segera memerintahkan tindakan tegas terhadap kumpulan pengganas, termasuk Negara Islam dan Al-Qaeda!" (The attack in Negeri Sembilan has proven that, there are many people who cannot assimilate into Malaysian society. I will soon order complete crackdown on the terrorist groups, including Islamic State and Al-Qaeda!)

Malaysia TV, both state-owned and private-owned, joined issue against terrorism. This had been seen as something on the change.

Inspector Lim Kong Yee, who was driving a private car used for the police law enforcement of Malaysia in Kuala Lumpur, called to Kid and Nikov in Negeri Sembilan using specific phone.
"Well done, Sirs. You did not predict this coming, right?"
"Neither did you. We're all underprepared." Kid admitted while in Negeri Sembilan.
"However, lucky for you, this time, we have total force. Malaysian Government has issued backup and you can freely watch those terrorists of Khatag Safawi. I have reported about him to the Federal level."
"Dang ... sometimes, luck came out with a surprise." Kid shut the phone as they finally got a brief discussion.
The McFlanagan couple was a couple of two person, the brother, elder Andrew McFlanagan, and his sister Amrita McFlanagan. They were of distant Bangladeshi origin due to a Bangladeshi woman from Chittagong at 19th century's Bengal, but they were now almost looking not so different from any white-skinned people from Europe. Their Scottish blood still larger, indeed.
They were former British soldiers together in Afghanistan. Now, they ran a private military contractor but sometimes spent vacations abroad. Their company was named Bengal, in honor to their ancestors.
"The McFlanagans!" Kid soon cherished their relations, and Andrew also hugged after it.
"My friend, my friend." Andrew laughed: "I have seen the scene before. Nothing to be wary about."
"I wish I have that optimistic culture like you." Kid suggested for himself like that, face still showed deeply concerning.
"Oh, c'mon! If you truly don't have, you won't chase so much like that." Amrita, Andrew's sister and also a manager of the company, laughed as well: "You can butcher them too."
