I went to meet Abdul and told him to send his family out of this state. I also increased the survelliance near my parents house.
My maa called me after some time. Beta yeh security kyu hai bahar she asked.
Maa ek ladki hai jo ladko ko mar de rhi hai. And since I am solving this case she will target you all. That's why I said.
Ok Beta I understand said Maa.
And Maa tell Dad and Pari to take security with them while going to work or anywhere else. And you please don't go out I said.
Ok Beta she said.
Maa baad main baat karta hoon I said.
Haan sure said Maa and cut the call. I went back to my cabin and started thinking how to proceed with this case. I was just doing that when there was a knock on the door. Come in I said. Sir there is a case of robbery in bank said Simran another officer. We got in the car and left for the bank. By evening we got caught of criminals and they were arrested. At night I went to my home and kept my head on my wife's lap exhausted from the work today.
Suniye na said Kiran.
Boliye Meri Jaan I said holding her hand.
Aapne mujhe bahar jaane se mana kyu kiya she asked. I told her about the bride case and saw worried etched on her face.
Chinta mat karo jaan. Main tumhe kuch nhi hone dunga aur khud ka bhi khayal rakhunga I said and squeezed her hand lightly. Papa came a voice. I turned to look at my daughter and my son behind her. They came on the bed and I spend time with them and then we all slept together. I won't let anything happen to my family I thought.
NEXT DAY
I reached the station. Sir Aveek ke reports aa gye hai said Nikhil after few minutes. Ok I said and we went to meet the doctor. I saw the reports. The doctor said the poison is same as Ramesh. I sighed and left the hospital. I already knew the poison would be the same. I reached the station. I got a call just right then. I answered the call. Hello I said. H-Hello came a voice. Who is this I asked. K-Kartikeya Sir I-I am Deepika. P-please h-help me. S-S-She h-has k-kidnapped me said Deepika.
Who has kidnapped you I asked. She stopped speaking.
Hello? I said.
The Bride she said in a whisper.
My eyes widened after hearing The Bride.
Do you know where you are I asked. Sir I am in a b-basement in a ( hiccups) h-house. I-I don't know a-anything else she said and started crying. P-Please s-save me Sir she said.
Deepika I will be there in a few minutes. I am tracking your phone. Btw how did you get the phone I asked.
Sir s-she is c-coming. I-I n-need to go she said crying.
The call ended and I immediately asked Abdul to track the phone. I took Nikhil and my team with me. Sir you have reached the location said Abdul. There were many apartments and houses nearby. Har ghar ki talashi lo I ordered. I turned towards an alley. Sir you are near the location. Keep Walking said Abdul. I continued walking. Sir sir here here said Abdul. I saw two houses. One was locked. I went towards the locked door. Sir you are in the right place said Abdul. I went backwards and pushed the door with all my strength and broke it. I immediately found the basement and saw a girl lying there. Deepika I called. Sir. I turned on the lights and saw her nose and mouth bleeding. I picked her up in my arms and took her out. Abdul immediately call Nikhil and tell him that I have found Deepika I said. Yes Sir he replied. After few minutes Nikhil arrived with other police officers in car. We immediately took Deepika to hospital. The doctor checked on her while we waited outside. After waiting for a long time the doctor came out. Doctor how is she I asked. She is weak now and she lost a lot of blood but she is asking for you said Doctor. Thank you doctor I said and I went inside the room to meet her. How are you Deepika I asked.
I sat on the stool beside her.
Not good Sir. She beat me up she said and started crying.
Shhh calm down Deepika. You are fine now. I won't let anything happen to you I said and I really mean it. She nodded. So Deepika I have a few questions for you I said.
