DARK WEAPON BOOK ONE: TIME OF BOMBING✔️

Chapter 8

“Captain, these are the files you requested for” Stephany said, walking into Adan’s office.

“Okay, thanks” Adan said.

“What are you doing Sir?” Stephany asked, looking into Adan’s laptop.

“Just something I’m working on” Adan replied, still focused on his work.

“Huh? Why are you going through the gas explosion of three years ago in Danima” Stephany asked.

“You know about that incident?” Adan asked.

He thought just a few people knew about it. Especially since Swart and Philips covered up everything. No one talked about the gas explosion and even he didn’t know of it.

Though he too was serving as a trainee for the CIA at that time the explosion happened but he didn’t hear any news of it. It was almost as if people spoke about it for only one day and then forgot about it. 

“Yeah, I lost my cousin, Daniel in the incident, remember?” Stephany said.

“Yeah, yeah I do, was he part of that incident too?” Adan asked.

“Yeah, he was. It was very suspicious for 355 persons to be wiped out at once without any trace at all, right?” Stephany asked.

“I have a few questions to ask about the incident” Adan said.

“Sure Sir, you can ask me anything and my Auntie too really wants to know about what it was that happened but since people don’t talk about it she’s too scared to bring up the topic” Stephany said.

“So, this Daniel; your cousin I mean. He joined the Defense academy then partook in the military training and within months the explosion happened and he died” Adan said.

“Yes, it was very surprising plus in his room in the dormitory, only four seriously burnt bodies were found and they were 5 of them in that room” Stephany stated.

“5 you say” Adan asked.

“Yeah, when I called him once he narrated everything to me about how they lived at the training centre” he replied.

“What was the identity of the four bodies found? Was no DNA test conducted? No autopsy?” Adan asked.

“No DNA was conducted and no autopsy as well. The Defense Academy buried them fast before the news could get to the families of the deceased” Stephany said.

“The location where they were buried, do you know where it is?” Adan asked Stephany.

“Who, Sir?” Stephany asked.

“The trainees involved in the gas explosion” Adan answered.

“I could request for it” Stephany said.

“Thank you Stephany” Adan smiled.

“You’re welcome Sir, anytime, you can ask me anything” Stephany said as Adan took out his car keys.

“Are you going out Sir?” Stephany asked.

“Yes, I’ve got to question Swart, Adan said, and when I get back we are going to the site where those trainees were buried three years ago” he added.

“Yes Sir, I’d get everything ready before you get back” Stephany said as he walked out with Adan.

Adan had gotten new information and he was itching to question Swart about it. He wondered how the family of the deceased trainees were able to identify their children and bury them if they were all burnt beyond recognition and their ID’s were destroyed.
