mind. She thinks its impossible if her clothes is just merely disappeared. So, she decided to observe her case.
Many ways have been done; hiring a detective, reporting to the police and the last, going to the superstitious-
man. Someone says that there is a fabulous superstitious-man in a neighborhood village. She is interested to
go there.

about this.

NW : Excuse me, Mbah.

SM : Yes, come in. Oh, my dear, beautiful lady. Is there a problem with you?
NW : Yes, mbah. I need your help to know where was my scarf lost.
SM : Hm you go to the right man because I am a very fabulous superstitious-man. I know everything than the
others. Good good . Let me check on this computer!
Come on, dear. Is that you scarf?
