Without Notice (Book 2)

#26

Siddhant was going through a photo album in his bedroom. It had his marriage and anniversary photos seeing what he was trying to relieve his pain. He heard a doorbell. He opened the door where Shivraj Patel was there with Ariana.

He said, "Everything good son. Actually I am leaving tomorrow at noon for Malaysia. I just thought to pay you a visit. "

" Please be in. "

Sakshi was in her house while her husband was doing dishes. She was on a phone call with Arjun who was on his way to his home by foot.

Sakshi said, " I didn't get the permission when you had asked me to meet him in the cell. "

" It's not a good sign if he has been released from the custody. "

" I think he is on interim bail. "

" Whatever it is, someone else is in danger if he is out. "

" Arjun, nothing is going to progress in your case if you lacks evidence against Grover. Maybe he is involved in the kidnappings or he might be responsible for Mr. Roshan's death but it's still a theory. You lack facts. "

" Yes I do lack facts but what about Aniruddh, Rohit and Dipti who were killed for the same cause and the epicenter of these incidents is none other than Grover. "

Before Sakshi was about to hang up, Arjun interrupted her.

He said, " Mam, I don't care about the facts. I don't even care what you are going to submit in your report. The only thing I care about is doing the right thing what I am trained for. "

She chuckled, " I knew you won't back down. I have always seen you being like this. "

" You are going to watch me being like this ahead too. "

As he hung up he received another call from Siddhant which he picked up instantly.

Siddhant spoke in a voice filled with nervousness,

" Mr. Sinha. Patel. He is here. He is going to kill me. "

" What? Are you at home? "

Siddhant was lying wounded on the floor in his house. Ariana was standing with a gun in her hand. Shivraj took the phone from him and sat on the couch.

He spoke, " Good evening, Mr. Sinha. I believe your investigation is going well. "

Arjun said, " Shivraj Patel. Grover's partner. You and Grover had already killed Dipti. Why him? "

" He believed you Mr. Sinha, he believes you. I had offered him to come with me to get a job. I wanted him to start over and move but he denied. He told me that he believes you that you are going to find his wife's killer that's who he wanted to see before his next move. "

" Because he didn't know that the killers are around him. Mr. Roshan was your prey too. Grover and you had planned to get him off the way. "

" You are actually a great investigator. But you are not going to catch me anyway. "

" I am more than what you think about me Mr. Patel. I am not going to spare any of you at any cost. "

Shivraj hung up the call and allowed Ariana with a hand gesture. She stepped forward and shot Siddhant thrice who later on died with bleeding from his chest.

Chetna walked out of her house during the early morning. She drove away her car. She was on the way when a biker began to follow her. He took out his gun and began to shoot on the car. The side mirrors were broken which got her stunned.

She tried to raise her gear but the biker shot on the rear tyre which led to a resistance and then a van appeared from her left which rammed the car.

Chetna survived some minor injuries. A masked Manbir came out of car with gun in his hand and pointed it to her. She looked at him and walked out of her car slowly. The removed his helmet who was Nakul. He sent a message to Rastogi.

Rastogi received the message while he was in the office building. He went to Niranjan Grover who was in the lobby with Shivraj Patel.

He told him, " Sir, they got her. " .

Arjun went through the crime scene at Siddhant's house. A white chalk outline of Siddhant's body was drawn at the scene. He looked at the couch where Siddhant's phone was kept.

Navika walked in.

She said, " He was not even supposed to die. "

He looked at the chalk outline.

" His murder was not a part of their plan. It was just to outsmart us. Patel was there with him. He believes he is a big gun. "

" What we have to do now? We know who is the culprit. "

" We have to bring it to end now. "

Siddhant's phone rang. They looked at the phone on the couch. Navika looked at him. Arjun stepped towards the couch. It was an unknown number. He picked up and attended the call.

He answered, " Hello! "

Niranjan said, " Mr. Sinha, finally I am talking to you. It's a pleasure for me to hear the voice. "

" I was too looking forward to meet you for a long time. "

" Why not? Face to face. We'll settle down everything forever. "

" You called me on this number. You knew that I would be here at the scene. "

Niranjan chuckled, " I was unable to find another way to contact you. I chose this one with my close friend. "

" Mr. Patel. He is with you right now as far as I know. "

Shivraj was standing at the balcony of the gallery by Niranjan. He was too listening to the conversation.

Niranjan said, " Before you come here, O would like to introduce to a voice which you might be familiar with. "

He took the phone near to an injured Chetna who was sitting on the couch.

She spoke, " Arjun. "

He was stunned to hear her voice.

" Mrs. Arya? "

Niranjan took the phone away from her.

He said, " She'll be here until you comes in. "

" I don't care whether you kill the girl or not but I won't stop until I hunt you and your close friend down. "

" Come and get her. "

The call was hung up.

He said, " They have kept Chetna captive. They want me to go there. "

" We can't trust them blindly. I don't think they are going to spare you. "

" We just have to take her out alive. I'll manage the rest. "

Arjun cocked his gun, put that into his holster and went outside. He got his eye on Siddhant's car.
