"Yes, You have not been proven wrong, YET. Yes, the investigation is still ON. But now, the main part is, CLUB AQUA BLUE! The same spot where even our first victim Naina Kundra had come, the night before she disappeared and was killed, just like Tina Raichand, day before yesterday! SAME spot! That's yet another trademark of the Zodiac Killer! Trying to challenge the investigators by doing the same crime consecutively, on the same days every week in one month, from the same spot!"
Suraj gulped yet another shot of whisky, pretending to pay no heed to Chakor's talks, but she knew very well that he was listening to it all, and before she could add something further, she heard him say,
"YES. And now, if you are done making fun of me, acting like a high school student, I would STILL stand true to my theory, abide by my logic and do what I came here for.That is interrogating the club people. OKAY?''
He was about to leave the spot when Chakor stopped his way, making him look at her with a questioning gaze.
"FINE! I think you are hell bent on taking away the title of STUBBORN from me, the one which you yourself gave me, eh?"
Suraj rolled his eyes narrowing his brows, he said , " I don't have time for your drama, Chakor."
Chakor nodded her head, regaining her composure.
"Hi! This is Agent Rajvanshi! From the Detective! I have some questions for you!"
He straight away averred to a waiter at the club,showing his badge, while Chakor cursed him under her breath, her expressions thoroughly giving away her burning rage from the inside, and without a second thought, she gulped another shot of tequila at one go, and went to the other side of the massive bar.
.
.
Suraj knew it was almost next to impossible for him alone to carry on with the interrogation and so after 15 minutes of talking to a number of people who he thought could make it to his list of persons of interest, he darted his eyes at the other side to look for that one agent, who had always meant a havoc for him at workplace.
Agent Chakor.
But when he looked for her at the other direction,the sight that greeted him, made his blood boil, as he saw her sitting on the bar stool, talking to a guy, who eyed her from top to bottom with lusty eyes, and Suraj tried a 1000 degrees to not lose his control and create a scene here.
"What the hell is this woman up to?!"
He gritted through his teeth, trying to stay calm.But nope.
It was not helping.
.
.
"So, this is your last case?"
The bartender asked her as he poured her yet another drink and Chakor nodded her head like a little kid, sipping her drink as she replied,
"Yeah! And after that...I am OUT!"
"But why?"
The man questioned her.
Chakor giggled like she was totally out of her senses and said in a tone less audible,
"I have failed in 7 cases.BACK to BACK! So, if I don't solve this one, I am OUT! So, dear..."
She looked at the little badge that the bartender wore, and after reading what was written on it, said,
"Dear Sam! Please help me out! Can you show me the CCTV footage from Tuesday night? I need to see who entered and left the club that night and if the victim was actually here that night."
The guy looked at her, and wondered helplessly what to do.
No wonder she was exquisitely beautiful, but she was also drunk, and at the same time a Detective agent with a dicey career.However, when she looked at him with those big-doe eyes, he couldn't deny and said, "Okay fine! But will you be able to even walk?"
"Haha! Of course! Don't worry! I am not even half way drunk!"
Chakor said self-assertively with joy,while the guy only laughed at her funny antics and took her to the CCTV footage room.
.
.
But here Suraj Rajvanshi felt like knocking someone down, breaking someone's head, looking at the way Chakor was handling the investigation.
He knew she had more than 30 cases to her credit, but that didn't change the fact that their ways of working always put them at loggerheads.
However,it was this case that was constantly making him think differently about a lot of things, due to several reasons of course.He was well aware that Chakor as a Detective agent always knew what she was doing, but today she was being far too incorrigible and that made him insanely furious.
