⚔️J, Y & team on mission - Part III ⚔️

"If you are thinking of evacuating your people out of the building. I'll suggest you to rethink your decision, Captain Yashodha," said Nageash, smirking while showing off his bloodied teeth.
"What did you just say?!" Javead dangerously minced his way to Nageash.
"Every seven kilometers for the next thirty kilometers out of this palace, there's a bomb. Explosion can bring fatal up to eight kilometer in radius. If they escape this building, they can't escape out there. Entire Jodhpur will go down in ruins in just one click," Nageash snorted without having a tinge bit of fear in him.
"You bloody scoundrel" Javead lunged a kick on his chest, Nageash flew back along with the chair tied to him.
White knuckles from clenching her fist too hard and gritted teeth trying to remain silent. There seems to be no way out. Yashodha had the slight doubt when Nageash mentioned 'outside of the palace' but she did not expect them to go to such extend. No, naxalites never harmed common people. These were for personal revenge in the name of rebel. She had to think and she had to be quick.
The current situation was if she was tied upside down from a cliff.
"What's the plan, Captain?"
"I'm trying to think of a best possible way to keep the people safe, Major. If our officers manages to defuse all explosives within the compound we can at least get those outside to take shelter in the palace, right?" Yashodha suggested.
"You are right. Our officers can't go out but we can certainly get aid from the local bomb squad. I'll give a call right away to the police" Javead agreed and proceeded to make necessary calls.
Yashodha impatiently marched to and fro. Ten minutes had passed with no update from the bomb disposal unit. Yashodha couldn't wait any longer, she called Jagdish who was in charge of the task.
"What's the update?" She asked immediately as soon as the call was answered.
"We managed to defuse one. We can't find the other two. It's not in the location he said!" Jagdish on the other side frantically replied. She could hear him moving around. They must have been searching for it.
"Keeping searching. We'll try to get some help"
She was anxious and petrified at the same time. What if the leader of the Naxalite group found out about them searching for the explosives? What if he just decides to press the button? What if he refuses to have a deal?
"I have called the bomb squad. They will be here in minutes" Javead intervened her thought process.
"Have you explained to them the complexity of the situation?" Yashodha asked.
"I have. They are fully prepared" he nodded.
The continuous cough and wheezing pulled their attention back to the traitor who had lied about the explosives. The man laughed, "I thought you were smart, Captain Yashodha. You turn out to be a fool. Fool like the rest," he spat.
The words he uttered were raging fire in her, she flounced towards him and slapped the man as hard as she could. The man had been playing with them and many lives out there. What seems to be a game for these people, it means life for many. There was only one way out.
"You will be the fool in this game of vengeance," she sneered and took his mobile phone that they had snatched earlier.
She ran a quick scan through the mobile device before tapping on the screen and placed it to her ears.
