The sound of the alarm disturbed the peace of the six cross six room. The rising sun exposed the clean picture of the room. It has a kitchen at the left side followed by an attached bathroom. It has a sofa, TV and a table at the right side and a bed at the corner. A man, sleeping in the bed, get up. He stretched his arms to brisk himself. He may be 5 -6 feet tall and has a good physic. He got up and went to the bathroom to complete his daily activities. He went to the kitchen and does himself a bread toast and milk. He went out of his room and closed it. In his opposite is another room named “Arjun Bhagwat – Private Investigator.” He entered the room and sat in a chair behind a table full of newspapers and note pieces. He sat there for almost half an hour. Then feeling bored, he went from the second floor of his room to the ground floor. He entered a small restaurant and ordered a tea. He watched the TV which described about a robbery in Allahabad bank. He thought of himself who has solved a lot of bank robbery cases since two years. He has a good relationship with the police force.
He didn’t give much attention to the news until he heard the phrase, ‘the thieves are going invisible.’ Suddenly his eyes turned into the TV. It showed a CCTV footage in which all people are just watching them and the thieves are just taking the money casually. By looking at the camera, they showed their middle finger and took out some cloak or something and covered them. They have just gone. Arjun can’t believe his eyes. He thought,’ I have seen this magic only in Harry Potter movies.’ How it can be? He finished his tea and quickly went out and started his bike.
He raced in the Jawaharlal Nehru road to the Lalbazar Police Headquarters. He reached the police headquarters at around 9:30 am. He took out his phone and dialed some numbers.
‘Hello Nikhil. I’m outside the headquarters. Come outside quickly.’
‘OK wait I’m coming in five minutes.’
The phone hanged. After five minutes, a man of normal height and weight came outside and towards Arjun.
‘What is the matter?’
‘What is happening now?’
‘Are you asking about the Allahabad Bank robbery?’
‘Of course yes. Did you get any evidences or leads?’
‘Not at all. We are also so much puzzled about this incident. I personally request you to work with me. We need your help.’
‘Don’t worry. You are an inspector and importantly my wife’s brother.’
‘Ok shut up. I want you ask you one thing. Why you and Sara are not together. She is angry about you.’
‘Obviously, you know the reason. I need time to move on.’
‘Yeah, I know. Try to forget Ragini.’
‘Ok, I will try. If you get any evidence, inform me.’
Arjun get on the bike and joined the traffic thinking about the unknown Ragini.’
