Thursday, 14th May

Sarah got a call and woke up fidgeting: Hello, who is with me?

He replied: This is me, your Daniel. It is difficult to get used to the time difference between us. The important thing is that the team will reach Thailand within hours.

She said, "Okay, don't worry, I'll take good care of them."

He said: Are you sure you can handle managing the team?

She replied, all enthusiastically: Of course! Mr. Daniel, you have trained me well, it's a piece of cake.

She ate breakfast, then put on her clothes and looked at herself in the mirror: It is the D-day, hold on, there's not much left.

The press is standing outside Steve's house, demanding an explanation, but he hides inside to avoid confronting them. "Mr. Steve, how long are you going to ignore us like this?", "You have to explain your actions!", "Are you going to be hiding like this while the rest of the candidates are preparing for the elections, "Are you going to withdraw from the elections and retire from politics, Mr. Steve?".

The court sent its response about the request of the National Anti-Corruption Committee, and it responded with rejection. Therefore, the Commander's team Lawan has the right to return to work and carry out its work normally, the captain sent a message to his team, and they regrouped at the police station, and sent all evidence to the prosecutor's office so they can get a warrant for Steve's arrest.

Steve peeked out and turned around in anger: Damn it! If I go out, they will devour me!

His assistant (Not) approached him and gave him his mobile device, saying: Sir, there are demonstrations demanding compensation from the families who we drove out of their homes.

He took the device and said angrily: Look at these idiots, they have gathered their strength now! Things are getting more and more upset.

He turned towards him and continued: Get the car ready. We're going to the LA Law Firm.

At the police station, the team was ready to go out as soon as they got the note. They were watching the news. Mark said: His scandals topped the list.

Jan: We must be careful, now he's angry and might take a crazy step to hit us.

In front of the LA Law Group building, Steve and his assistant (Not) were prevented from entering and the security men stood up to stop him, Steve retreated and then take his phone out and shouted: You bastard! How dare you stand against me! Get your men out of my way right now!

He answered coldly: I don't take orders from anybody.

He finished his sentence and hung up the phone in his face, which made Steve flare up in anger: I'm a nobody now?! After you took all that money! I'll not fall alone, and you will see!

Behind the office of the group CEO, a large window through which he could see what was happening outside, he saw Steve screaming and hitting the ground in anger. Then he turned to his assistant, saying: Have all the documents related to SJ Construction been disposed of?

She replied, "Yes, sir. We even got rid of scraps of paper and junk."

He watched Steve leave and smiled, said "Good, you can go now."

The journalists arrived and ran towards Steve, who ran to his car and shouted at his assistant, "let's Leave now!"

His car drove away from the press and there were many questions, he removed his tie in anger: Everyone turned against me! What about Mr. Michael?

He replied: No answer sir.

He said: And the commissioner?!

He replied: His phone is switched off, no one answers us sir.

He looked out the window and said: Out of the frying pan and into the fire!

The commander entered the police station, saying: We got the arrest warrant!

Zhao got up happy: Now Steve is officially wanted!

Jan said to Mark: Let's go get him.

Mark sarcastically: Now you consider me your partner!

Jan sighed and walked over saying, "It's my fault."

The detectives arrived at Steve's house, and he was surprised by the presence of foreign journalists with the local journalists. Mark Advanced: Sarah! What are you doing here?

She turned and said, "Oh, Detective Mark and fast boiling... Hello. I'm officially doing my job. Mr. Daniel has sent a team to follow up on the case. Susan, come here!"

Then she said, "This is my friend Susan."

Turning to her friend, she said, "They are the two detectives I told you about earlier."

She smiled, pointing to Jan: Oh, then you must be the fast boiling!

He stared at Sarah and then sighed, saying: Police Department, Criminal Investigations, Detective Jan.

She smiled and said, "You have a beautiful name. Nice to meet you, Detective Jan."

Then Sarah said, "But what brings you here?"

Mark replied, "We've got a warrant to arrest Steve."

She smiled: Really! That's cool guys... Susan, let's turn on the camera and get to work.

The police and the prosecutor's office broke into Steve's house under the spotlight of the press cameras that were broadcasting live what was happening, the prosecutor's office confiscated everything in his house, then they went to his company SJ Construction, confiscated all the equipment and documents and temporarily stopped its work.

Evening came and so far, no trace of Steve, the police station was busy upside down searching and sorting out the evidence they had confiscated, everyone working nonstop to find his whereabouts and finish the case.

In one of the old and cheap motels, the assistant (Not) stood with his grocery bags in front of one of the rooms. He turned right and left and then entered and said: Sir, I have brought some food and water.

He was sitting on the sofa watching TV: My rivals had won, all my hard work all these years had been blown away.

He turned to him and continued: Did you do what I told you to do?

He answered: Yes, sir. Tomorrow things will be ready.

Zhao got up and walked over to the Commander and the rest of the team. Then he said, "I found information while I was researching Steve's SJ Construction."

Commander: What is it?

Answer: The right hand of Steve, his assistant (Not), he booked accommodation in Japan with his credit card, I found it strange, so I tried to get more information.

He continued, saying: He used a Japanese name (Watro), to sign the house and car rental contract. I searched for the name (Watro), and it turned out that this man had traveled to Thailand and reported the loss of his passport, and no one had heard of him for two weeks.

Mark: Steve is trying to impersonate (Watro) to escape.

Jan: Did you notify all concerned about this?

Zhao: I sent all the information to the Immigration Bureau. The Revenue Department informed us that tomorrow morning someone will rent a boat to take it to the Gulf of Thailand. Should I check on it, Commander?

He replied: Yes, don't let anything out of your sight.

Everyone replied: Yes sir!

Friday, 15th May

Sarah was getting her things ready and packing her clothes in the suitcase and making sure that her papers were complete, while Susan was sitting on the bed after unsuccessful attempts to get back to sleep. saying: My God! I drank milk, massaged my body, and took a cool shower to relax, but none of this worked to make me sleep!

She smiled, "I've had these problems before."

She asked: And when did you manage to organize your bedtime?

She replied: ...A week ago.

She stared at her: That's a long time, you idiot!

Sarah shut the door and scolded her: Lower your voice Mr. Dan and Mary are sleeping.

She said: I'm sorry, I didn't mean to do this ... Your plane will take off tomorrow?

She closed the bag and parked it behind the door. She replied: Yes, the last day in this city. I didn't expect to stay for this long.

She smiled and said sarcastically, "Yes, not even us." When John tells me you're going to Thailand, we bet you'll only stay a few days.

And she added: But you were brave and completed your mysterious journey.

Then Sarah said, "All the money you bet on, I'll take it."

She frowned, "Why?"

She grumbled: Do you know how many times I have been deceived! I spent a lot of money on fraudulent taxis.

They heard a strong knock on the door, they looked at each other in amazement, then the knocking increased, which made Mr. Dan wake up in fright. He got up and walked towards the door and said: Who is there?

The knocking stopped, but there was no answer. Mary approached him and asked: What's going on, Dad? Who is at the door?

Susan opened the door and went out to see what's happen. Sarah looked for her phone before she followed her, gathered in the living room. Mr. Dan repeated his question: Who is there?

Then the place became calm and fearful after the knocker answered: Have you forgotten me, brother?

Mr. Dan turned towards them and said, "Quickly hide in the rooms. Miss Sarah, call the police. Come on go! I'll try to stop him."

Susan took Mary to her room and Sarah followed them, then they closed the door. She called the police, then called Mark, but he didn't answer, she sighed anxiously: Please answer quickly.

He tried to put what he could carry behind the door, but Steve pushed the door with his body repeatedly until he broke in, walked towards Mr. Dan with an angry look: You could have lay in bed away from all this, but no! You decide to stand up against me. I'll make you pay with your life this time.

He was helpless at how to face him while he was bedridden for many years, he fell into his hands and beat him. Mary was crying silently as she heard her father's cries filling the house. Sarah was sitting behind the door looking at Mary crying over her father and hearing the harsh blows.
