Super action updateUpdate - 173 ~ Unmasked
[Note : Update bada hai toh itminaan se padhna.]
Ab tak...
Tej (nods) : Hmm! Kuch pata nahi lag paa raha ki woh kaha gaya hai. India se baahar hai. Bas keh deta hai ki business ke silsile me baahar aaya hu. Par- par mujhe lagta hai ki woh humse kuch chhipa raha hai Mom. Iss baar mein use chorrne waali nahi hu. Mein use itni asaani se maaf nahi karungi. Aur, aap bhi mujhe kuch nahi bolengi.
Bhavna ki bauhe kasi hui thi. Uska laadla bina bataaye ghar se chala gaya? Kaha gaya hoga bhala? Woh ek chintan me doob gayi.
Ab aage...
Garofano riha ho chuki thi. Magar, sab kuch samapt nahi hua tha. Case abhi bhi ruka hua tha aur hatyara abhi bhi salaakho ke peeche nahi tha.
Case behad hi pecheeda tha. Kintu, Veer ne ise bhaanp liya tha ki iski gathaane kis tarah bandhi hui thi.
Ghatnao ko agar kram anusar lagaya jaaye toh woh kuch iss prakar se ghatit hui thi.
Mr. Nicholson ka apni beti ke sang China aana.
Woh jaydad ka batwaara kar rahe hai aur apne chhote bhai se rishte naate tod dena chaahte hai, isliye yaha aaye hai.
Woh apni beti Violet ki personal workshop par jaate hai.
Unka workshop se nikalna aur fir achanak se gayab ho jaana.
Unki laash ek khandahar me praapt hona jo ki sheher se kaafi duri par tha.
Ye tha ghatnakram hatya ke poorv se leke hatya tak ka. Parantu, asli gutthi toh yaha se aarambh hui thi. Jaha police aake apni investigation par poornviram laga chuki thi toh wahi Veer ke liye ab ye investigation shuru hui thi. Kyuki, yahi se system owners aur unke kathan shaamil ho chuke the.
Renshu ka kehna tha ki mrat shareer me pehle se hi zeher paaya gaya tha. Hospital waalo ne autopsy ki report me bhi yahi bataya tha. Aur, use yakeen hai ki yeh Garofano ka hi kaam tha.
Kintu, Garofano saboot mita ke chali gayi thi. Isliye, Renshu ne Garofano ki tohfe me di hui woh needles dobara se laash par Erica ke dwara wahi chhudhwa di. Upar se ek needle uski workshop me bhi Erica chupke se rakh aayi. Taaki, police crime location par mile saboot ko workshop me mile saboot se match kar sake. Aur, Garofano ko jail bhej sake.
Renshu ki nazro me Garofano hi hatyari thi.
Magar, dusri orr Garofano ye qubool karne ko taiyaar nahi thi. Uske kathan ke anusar woh nirdosh thi. Aur, ye sab Renshu dwara use fasaane ke liye kiya gaya tha.
Saare saboot uske khilaaf the. Uske paas apni begunahi saabit karne ke liye kuch nahi tha. Uska kehna yahi tha ki usne apne pita ki hatya nahi ki hai. Usne Renshu ke upar ilzaam zaroor lagaya tha. Parantu, ilzaam ye lagaya tha ki Renshu use fasa raha hai. Ye nahi lagaya ki Renshu ne uske pita ko maara hai.
Ye baat Veer ke dimaag me baith chuki thi. Woh chaahti toh dosh Renshu par daal sakti thi jaise usne uss par daala tha. Veer ne jab uss se iska kaaran pucha tha toh usne bas yahi jawaab diya tha ~
"Maine Dad ko nahi maara hai, Veer! Why would I? Aur, mein ye kaise keh du ki Renshu ne unhe maara hai? Mein itna jaanti hu ki usne mujhe fasaya hai. Dad ko kisne maara, ye main nahi jaanti. Toh aise me dosh kaise daal sakti hu kisi par?"
"What about the past illustration?"
"Agar, insaan marrne se pehle apne hosh kho de toh hum uske past me ye nahi dekh sakte ki uske baad uske saath kya hua. Zaahir hai behoshi me mere Dad ko maara gaya hoga. Past mein chaah ke bhi poora nahi dekh paayi."
Yaha Veer ko system ki ek nayi jankari haath lagi thi. Agar, marrne waala vyakti apni maut ke chand pal pehle hi behosh ho jaaye toh use toh pata hi nahi chalega ki uske saath kya hua.
Aise me system uska past poorn roop se nahi dikha payega. Uski maut kisne ki ye chhip ke reh jayega.
Garofano ke iss khathan me kitni sachayi thi ye Veer nahi jaanta tha. Magar, kabhi na kabhi woh ise aazma ke dekh hi sakta tha. Usne punah apne prashn rakhe~
"Tumne kuch toh dekha hoga? Kaun the woh log? Kitne log the?"
"Yes!!! Kayi saare log the. Dad meri workshop se jab nikle the toh unn logo ne dad ko follow karna shuru kar diya tha. Uske baad woh unhe gher ke uss location par le gaye. Aur, fir...!"
"Kuch aur detail?"
"Sirf itna hi pata chala ki kuch aadmi the aur sabhi muh par kapda baandhe hue the."
"Isliye, tum Renshu par blame nahi daal rahi?"
"Of course! Mujhe nahi pata woh uske aadmi the ya kisi aur ke. Aise me mein kisi par bhi ungli nahi utha sakti Veer."
Inhi kuch baato ke chalte Veer kaafi kuch iss case ko samajh chuka tha. Gunde zaroor Ethan Nicholson ke the. Erica jo report laayi thi usme saaf saaf ye zahir tha ki haal hi me Ethan ne underworld gangs se contact kiya hai.
Garofano ka riha hona bhi itna saral nahi tha. Woh pehle hi jail se bhaag chuki thi. Isliye, uss par bhi kanoon todne ke kuch sanctions lage the.
Magar, woh filhal ke liye jail se chooth chuki thi. Needles par Garofano ke koi bhi fingerprints nahi paaye gaye the. Body par bhi Garofano ka koi fingerprint maujood nahi tha. Yaha tak ki uski odour bhi crime spot par K-9 unit bhaanp nahi paaye the.
Parantu, sabse bada saboot jiski wajah se Garofano choothi woh tha uski workshop ka CCTV footage.
Mr. Charles Nicholson apni beti ke sang uski workshop me aaye the. CCTV me sab qaid hua tha. Aur, kuch derr baad Mr. Nicholson workshop se nikal gaye. Ghar se baahar nikalne ke do raaste the. Aage se aur peeche se. Aur, dono hi taraf CCTV maujood the. Magar, dono hi CCTV me Garofano apni workshop se nikalti hui dikhayi nahi di.
Iska matlab saaf tha ki Garofano ki alibi confirm ho chuki thi. Jiss waqt Mr. Nicholson baahar khandhar me mrat paaye gaye the. Uss waqt Garofano apni workshop me hi thi. Woh workshop se baahar nikli hi nahi thi.
Inn tamaam sabooto ki wajah se aur FBCC ke involvement ke kaaran, China ke court ko apna faisla turant ke turant badalna pada. Ab Ethan Nicholson tha jise sawaalo ke uttar dene the.
Lag-bhag 2 din me hi Veer ne saara case suljha diya tha. Raat ke 10 baj rahe the aur woh ab Renshu se mine ke silsile me baat karne hi jaa raha tha jab-
*Ding*
[Mission : Unmask the culprit.
Rewards : ???? Points.
Time Limit : 8 hours.
Mission Failure Penalty : No Penalty.]
'What!!??'
Veer stabdh tha. Khush bhi tha ki itne samay baad akhir kaar use mission praapt hua magar, mission iss waqt milna jab sab kuch saamne hi tha. Ye baat koi sense nahi bana rahi thi.
Mission fail hone ki koi penalty nahi thi ye dekh kar usne ek rahat ki saans li. Ye points uske hi the.
Woh abhi kuch aur sochta ki itne me uske samaksh Garofano aake khadi ho gayi.
Garofano : Veer!!!
Veer : Hmm?
Garofano : Mein ab detention me nahi hu. Toh... Kya tum mere saath meri workshop chaloge?
Veer : Ohh? Workshop ki key police waalo ne tumhe wapas dedi?
Garofano (smiles) : Mujhe kaise de sakte hai? Mein abhi bhi bhaagi hui qaidi hu unki nazro me. Divya aur hamare lawyer ko di gayi thi key. Maine Divya se leli hai. So? Kya tum chaloge?
Veer : Kuch zaroori kaam hai?
Garofano (nods) : Hmm-Mmm~! Choonki, promise ke anusar ab mine ke silsile me mein yaha busy hone waali hu toh kuch important cheezein waha se uthaani thi.
Veer : Ohh! Sure! Why not?
Garofano : Really?
Veer : Of course!
Garofano (smiles) : Thank you!
Woh muskurati hui uska haath pakad use kheechte hue baahar ko le jaane lagi.
Erica aur Renshu dono saath me hi wahi baithe the jis kamre se hoke Garofano aur Veer guzar rahe the.
Erica : Tumhari fir koi nayi chaal hai kya?
Garofano : Mein Veer ko apni workshop leke jaa rahi hu. Mujhe waha se kuch zaroori samaan uthana hai. Car ki key chahiye mujhe.
Erica : Hum koi car ki chaavi tumhe nahi-
Renshu (nods) : Theek hai!
Erica : Wh-Whattt? Dad???
Renshu : Chaavi dedo Erica!!!
Iss baar bhi harr baar ki tarah ulta hi hua. Jab jab wo kuch karne jaati, uske Dad uss se vipreet nirnay suna dete the.
Woh daant meeste hue uthi aur chaavi ko usne be-mann se Garofano ki orr fek diya. Divya apne escort me sang baaki formalities ko poora karne me lagi hui thi toh woh iss waqt yaha nahi thi.
Ye mauka Veer ke liye sahi tha.
Aur, dono Veer Garofano Renshu ke ghar se ravana hoke workshop ki orr chal diye.
***
*Kuch derr baad*
Woh dono workshop pahuch chuke the. Sheher se ye workshop thodi duri par thi. Garofano ka kehna tha ki woh zyada shor waali jagahe pasand nahi karti thi, isliye iss jagah ko usne apni workshop ke liye chuna tha. Jagah buri nahi thi. Bas, thodi sunsaan thi. Aas paas ghar nahi the, showrooms, cafes bas yahi sab the jo lights se raushan ho rakhe the.
Unhe yaha aane me hi lagbhag 2 ghanta lag chuka tha. Raat ke 12 baj rahe the aur sabhi apne apne vyapaar ki dukaano ko band kar apne ghar jaa chuke the.
Garofano : Aao Veer! Please~
*Click*
Garofano ne ek lambe se darwaaze ka lock khola aur Veer ko andar ki orr le gayi. Usne ek switch ghumaya aur garm peeli roshni ne kamre ke samaan ko raushan kar diya. Bhale hi itne dino se ghar band hone ke kaaran dhool ki ek patli parat jagah jagah jama ho gayi thi par fir bhi Veer mehsoos kar sakta tha ki ghar mool roop se kitna sundar aur saath hi saath aramdayak tha.
Kayi jagah Garofano ke haath se banaaye kapde mannequins par tange hue the, saath hi decorations jo kamre ki saaj-sajja ko aur bhi nikhaar rahe the.
Veer : Y-Ye sab-!? Ye sab tumne banaya hai?
Wese toh usne pehle hi check kar ke ye pata laga liya tha parantu, fir bhi woh Garofano ke muh se sunn’na chaahta tha.
Garofano : Haan! Ye sab abhi bhi poori tarah se taiyaar nahi hai.
Usne aage badh wahi rakhe mannequin par lipti ek dress ko dheere se sehla kar, ek aah bharte hue kaha.
Garofano : Well? Jisne ye order diya tha, woh toh ab ise kabhi bhi nahi pehen sakta.
Uska ishaara mannequin par tange ek coat ki taraf tha. Veer samajh gaya. Shayad Garofano ke Dad apne liye iss coat ka order deke gaye the. Kintu, use pehen'ne se pehle hi woh chal base.
Garofano ki nazre wahi rakhe ek flower vase par gayi.
Garofano : Itne dino baad lauti hu ki phool bhi murjha gaye hai.
Veer : It’s okay! Taaza phulo se hum inhe badal denge. *smiles*
Garofano (smiles) : Hmm! Mein washroom se aati hu. Feel free to look around Veer~
Uske jaate hi Veer kuch qadam aage badh wahi kamre me tehelne laga. Mannequins ko dekhte hue woh dresses ko bhi parakh raha tha. Na jaane udhar Mumbai me Louis aur baaki sabhi Yarnia ko lekar kitna aage badhe honge? Uske WhatsApp par na jaane kitne saare messages dale hue the. Jinme se sabse zyada Tej aur Kavya ke hi the.
Kintu, Veer ke paas filhal kisi ko bhi reply dene ka samay nahi tha. Woh jaanta tha ki agar usne reply diya toh aur 100 sawaal uske sarr aa jayenge.
Abhi woh tehel hi raha tha jab uske kaan achanak hi kuch halchal sunn khade ho gaye. Woh turant hi ek deewaar ke peeche chhip gaya aur tabhi-
*BAAAAANNNGGGG*
Tezz awaaz ke saath ghar ke saamne ka darwaaza dhadalle se achanak khul gaya. Kayi saare log haatho me hathiyaar liye aa dhamke. Aur, unke saamne ek patla sa vyakti tha jo shayad inn aadmiyo ka boss prateet ho raha tha.
Aadmi : Aapko pakka yakeen hai na Mr. Nicholson? Ki woh yahi hai?
Ethan Nicholson : Haan Haan! Yahi woh ghar hai! Hmph! Mere khabri ne mujhe khabar di hai ki usne inn logo ko andar jaate dekha hai. Uske saath koi- koi aur bhi hai. Dhundho unhe jaldi!
Veer ko turant ke turant hi samajh aa gaya ki bhala iss waqt Mr. Nicholson ka ye chhota bhai yaha kyu aaya hua tha. Woh ek aise mauqe ki talaash kar raha tha jaha woh uske aur Garofano ke khilaaf qadam utha sake.
Veer chaahta toh aage badh unhe maar maar ke unki khatiya khadi kar deta. Parantu, yaha dimaag se chalne ki zaroorat thi. Agar woh baahar nikal unn sab se ladta toh zaahir hai ki unme se koi bhi uska saamna nahi kar paata.
Par, unki dhulayi karne ke baad kya? Veer unki jaan nahi le sakta tha aur na hi lena chahta tha. Aise me agar woh firse kahi court chale gaye ya unhone maar peet ka evidence pesh kar diya, toh ye case aur badh jaane waala tha.
Aur, dusra kaaran jo use rok raha tha woh ye ki Mr. Nicholson ka chhota bhai Garofano ka ek prakaar se relative hi tha. Muh bola hi sahi par rishtedaar toh lagta hi tha. Yaha woh bina Garofano ki anumati ke koi action nahi lena chahta tha. Dekhne se lag raha tha shayad Ethan Nicholson bail par tha.
Woh abhi paristithi se nikalne ke baare me soch hi raha tha jab achanak do narm thande haath uski gardan aur gaalo ko sehlate hue uske muh par aaye aur use dhak liye.
Veer : !!??
Garofano : Shhhh!!! Mein hu Veer~
Woh peeche se uss se aake lipat gayi. Uske baalo se aati anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me pravesh ki. Garofano ke dil ki dhadkan use apni peeth par mehsoos ho rahi thi. Veer ne use apni gardan mod ke dekh ek haami bhari. Uski nazre jaise puch rahi thi ki aage kya karna hai?
Garofano : Ek peeche ka darwaza bhi hai. Hum waha se nikal sakte hai. Aao mere saath-! Inse bhidna theek nahi. Inke khilaf pehle saboot ikhatta karna hoga.
Veer ne use pal bhar ke liye dekha. Jaise kehna chaah raha ho ki kya waqai hum system owners inn aam aadmiyo se darr kar bhaag rahe hai?
Aur, Garofano ne bhi jaise uske mann ki baat padh li, isliye woh turant hi haule se boli.
Garofano : Hum darr ke nahi bhaag rahe, Veer. Par, harr baar taqat nahi dikhayi jaati. Come!
Woh Veer ko leke peeche ke darwaaze ki orr badhi. Uski awaaz behad hi shaant thi jaise ki woh achanak hue iss hamle se zara bhi vichlit nahi thi. Ye jaante hue bhi ki uske Dad ke sage chhote bhai hi inn sab ke peeche the.
Veer ko pata hi nahi chala ki Garofano uske itna qareeb akhir kaise aa gayi thi? Uske mann me ek ajeeb si anubhooti jaagi. Lekin, sochne ka samay nahi tha.
Dead Silence!! Yahi woh skill thi. Pehli baar jab woh uss se mila tha tab bhi Garofano ne Dead Silence ka prayog kiya tha. Veer ko ye yaad tha.
‘Such a deadly skill! I’m jealous!’
[Indeed.]
Aadmiyo ki nazro se bachte hue woh dono hi tamaam samaano ki aadh me pichhle dwaar tak pahuch gaye.
Garofano : Yahi hai gate peeche ka. Yaha se hum-
*BAAAAAANNNNGGGGG*
Woh bolti ki iske pehle hi ek bullet tezi se Garofano ke perr par lagne ko aayi magar-
*Swishhhh*
Woh ek jhatke me bagal ko ho gayi. Peeche ke gate par bhi kuch aadmi aa chuke the. Shayad woh sabhi poori planning se aaye the.
Ethan Nicholson (shouts) : Violet!!! Dhokebaaz aurat….!!! Bhaagne ki firaaq me thi tum? Hai na? Hahaha! Dusro se kaam nikalwane me tumhara koi jawab nahi. Ye ladka…! Zaroor, tum hi ho woh jisne ye case apne haath me liya, hai na?
Garofano : Mr. Ethan? No!!! Ethan!!! Tumne hi mere Dad ko maara hai. Aur, mein chup nahi baithne waali.
Ethan : Tchhh!!! Agar, tumhare bagal se khada woh kameena mere raaste me na aaya hota toh mein kab ka qamyab ho gaya hota. Yaha tak ki will ki saari property mere naam ho gayi hoti. Lekin, sirf iski wajah se… sirf iski wajah se… Mujhe jail jaana pada. Woh toh bhala ho ki police ko mere khilaaf thos saboot nahi mil paaya. Aur, shukriya mere lawyer ka jiski wajah se mujhe do din ki bail mil gayi. Ab sab kuch mere hisaab se hi chalega…!
Garofano : …!?
Ethan : Kya saboot dilwaya tha tumne? Haha? Apni alibi ka? Woh main darwaze par laga CCTV aur uski recording na? Maine woh CCTV uda diya hai. Hahahaha! Aur, ye raha tumhara dusra CCTV...!
*BANG*
Usne pichle darwaaze par lage CCTV ki taraf apni bandook se nishana laga ke fire kiya aur dusre CCTV ke bhi chithde udd gaye.
Ethan : Hahahaha!!! Ab yaha kya hua, kaise hua, kisi ko kuch nahi pata chalega.
Garofano : To think that... Mere Dad ko tumne maara...! Tumne-!!!
Ethan (screams) : Ye sab tumhari wajah se hua hai. Sab tumhari galti hai.
Veer : Shut up!
Ethan : H-Huh-!?
Veer : Tum lucky the jo uss waqt Violet ko koi aur fasaana chaahta tha. Apne bade bhai ko tumne pehle hi maar diya tha. Ye tumhari kismat thi jo waha par Violet ke khilaaf saboot koi aur chorr gaya. Tum darre hue the. Tumhe lag raha tha ki body ko tumne thikaane nahi lagaaya. Tum kaise bach paoge? Tabhi, tumhe khabar mili ki Violet ke khilaaf murder scene par saboot milne ki wajah se use arrest kar liya gaya hai. Aur, tab tumhari khushi ka koi thikaana nahi tha. Hai na? Tum ye mauka apne haath se nahi jaane dena chaahte the. Right?
Ethan (screams) : Sh-Shut upppp!!!! You bastard!!!!
Veer ki ek ek baat khanjar ki tarah Ethan ke shareer me ghup rahi thi. Harr baat jaise sach prateet ho rahi thi. Ethan gusse se jhunjhlaya hua tha. Uska poora badan krodh me kaanp raha tha.
Baat sach thi ki woh body ko samay par thikane nahi lagwa paaya tha. Kyuki, usi waqt waha kisi ke aane ki aahat paake uske aadmi waha se bhaag gaye the.
Use laga tha ki woh ab gaya. Ab woh fass jayega. Kintu, agle hi din Garofano ke khilaf police ne crime sthal par saboot dhoondh nikaale the. Woh jaan chuka tha ki uss waqt jo log aaye the woh zaroor wahi log honge jinhone Garofano ke khilaf waha saboot chorre honge.
Zaahir hai, woh shaks Erica hi thi.
Veer : Par, sach chhipaya nahi jaa sakta. Tumne socha ki iss se accha mauka Violet ko fasaane ka nahi milega. Aur, isliye tum underground ho gaye. Tumne turant hi iss case ko proceed karwaya jisme minimum se minimum investigation ki gayi. Of course, tumhari kahani ke hisaab se tum apne conclusion par pahuch hi gaye the.
Ethan : H-Huh!?
Veer (grins) : Jab tak mein iss kahani me nahi aaya tha!!!
Ethan : Y-You-!!!! *shouts* You bastard!!! M-Mein tumhe dikhaata hu…! Jao! Unn dono ko pakad ke mere paas lao. Mujhe wo dono zinda chahiye!!!
Usne apne haath se ishara kiya aur ek ke baad ek gunde Veer aur Garofano ki taraf badhne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Ding*
[Beowulf's Blessings has been activated.]
Ek gunde ne Veer ke chehre ki taraf jaise hi ek pipe ghumaya, Veer ne baaju hote hi badi hi saralta se use dodge kar liya.
Veer ko achanak iss tarah hamla dodge karte dekh gunde aapas me chaunke par fir gambheer hote hue dobara vaar karne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
Magar, harr prayas vifal. Veer ne mauka dekha aur turant hi Garofano ko darwaaze ke baahar dhakela.
Turant ke turant wo khud bhi nikla par tabhi-
*Bang*
Ethan ki bullet uski baah ko graze karte hue nikal gayi. Bullet uske haath ko kharochte hue gayi thi. Khoon behna shuru ho chuka tha.
Garofano (concerned) : Veeeerrr???
Veer : Don't worry!!! Quick!!!
Garofano : I know!!!
Garofano ne Veer ki kalaayi thaami, use dekha. Aur, tezi ke saath waha se bhaagi. Ghar se lagi hui kayi saari alleys bani hui thi. Unhi me se ek alley me woh Veer ko leke uske sang andar ghus gayi.
Ethan (screams) : Madarchodo-!!! Pakdo unhe-!!!
Veer ko unke qadmo ki awaaz sunayi de rahi thi. Par, woh sab ke sab clueless idhar se udhar bhatak rahe the. Jab qadmo ki awaaz poori tarah se band ho gayi, toh Veer ne Beowulf ko band kar diya.
Veer : Kya soch ke woh yaha aaya tha?
Garofano : Socha hoga ki kuch gundo ke lekar jaunga toh ye amla naari kya hi mera kuch bigaad payegi.
Veer : Uss bechare ko nahi pata tha ki hum system owners hai. Too bad!!
Garofano chalte hue uske nazdeek aayi aur chintit nazro se woh uske haath ko dekhi jaha se khoon abhi bhi tapak raha tha. Use koi zyada chot nahi aayi thi. Kuch hi ghanto me ye chot poori tarah se theek ho jaane wali thi. Ye baat Garofano khud bhi jaanti thi. Magar, uske bawajood woh chinta vyakt kar rahi thi. Kahi na kahi use khushi thi ki Veer use bachaane ke liye aage aaya. Ye jaante hue bhi ki woh khud ek system owner thi. Toh kahi use gham bhi tha Veer ki abhi ki haalat dekh ke.
Garofano : Mujhe dekhne do!
Veer : What?? Y-Ye? Don’t worry! Ye theek ho jayega!!
Garofano ne bina uski baat maane hi ek jhatke me uski aasteen faad ke alag kar di.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mein jaanti hu ki ye tumhari liye maamuli chot hai. P-Par- Par, mere liye nahi hai.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : I’m sorry! Na mein tumhe yaha laati, aur na hi ye sab kuch hota.
Veer : Pagal ho kya? Ye kuch bhi nahi hai! Don’t overreact! Hume thodi pata tha ki woh Ethan iss tarah ki tactic khel jayega. Now that I see it. He’s so dumb. Agar, Renshu ne woh sui waha nahi chorri hoti toh ye bewakoof khud ko kabhi bhi nahi bacha paata.
Parantu, iske baad bhi Garofano maayus prateet ho rahi thi. Jaise woh khud ko hi dosh de rahi thi.
Veer : Umm-!! Well-
Garofano (glances) : Hmm?
Veer (blushes) : A-Agar tum kuch karna hi chaahti ho toh- W-Well! Actually… Woh jo button tumne sili thi woh gir gayi abhi waha ladte waqt. T-Toh-
Garofano ki nigaahein kuch pal ke liye timtimayi. Jaise maano paar-darshi ho rahi ho. Veer unn aankhon me doob ke kuch na kuch paa sakta tha. Par, iske pehle ki woh aur dekh paata turant hi woh aankhein punah apardarshi ho gayi.
Garofano (smiles) : Iss baar sirf button nahi, Veer! I’ll make a shirt for you!!!
Veer : O-Oh!
Veer uski muskaan me jaise kho sa gaya.
Garofano : Par uss se pehle- Let me do the dressing!
Uske paas hamesha ek first aid kit hoti hi thi. Turant hi apne shrug ko khol usne andar ke jebo se kayi saari bandages nikaali. Jab usne apna shrug khola toh Veer ne dekha ki kaise tarah tarah alag alag akaar ki sui shrug ke andar fix latki hui thi. Yaha tak ki zeher ki woh sheeshi ka bhi alag se jeb bana hua tha. Woh aage aayi aur cotton se komalta se khoon ko pochi. Aur, uske baad disinfectant lagate hue, ek ointment ki parat upar chadha kar bandage ko baandhne lagi.
Garofano : Ho gaya…!
Veer : W-Well! Thanks!
Garofano (mutters) : No one will hurt you from now on!
Veer : Huh!!??
Garofano ne bahut hi dheere se bola tha. Magar, Veer ke senses tez the. Agar, koi aam insaan hota toh woh sunn nahi paata. Parantu, Veer ne sunn liya tha. Aur, sunane ke baad bhi use apne kaano par vishavaas nahi ho raha tha. Kya Garofano ne wahi kaha tha jo usne abhi abhi suna?
Tabhi, ek baar fir unn gundo ke qadmo ki awaaz Veer ke kaano me padi.
Veer : Ye bewakoof log firse-
Lekin, iske pehle ki woh apni baat poori keh paata, use apne haath par ek chubhan mehsoos hui. Aur, fir sunnata uski baah se uske poore shareer tak fel gayi. Use lakwa maar chuka tha. Veer ka vision dhundhla hone laga, usne apna santulan khoya aur woh peeche ki orr girne laga jaha ek narm, garm aalingan me woh utar gaya.
Veer ne dekha ki Garofano ki goad me woh gir chuka tha.
Veer (shocked) : Y-You-!!!!!????
Garofano : It’s okay! It’s okay! Don’t be scared. Kuch nahi hone waala tumhe. It’s alright, honey!
Veer : !!!???
Garofano : Bas, tumhe ab dakhal dene ki zaroorat nahi, my dear.
Veer upar uthane ki koshish karta hai. Uske gaal Garofano ke lambe reshmi baalo se dhake hue the. Aur, uski anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me bhar rahi thi.
Veer : G-Garofano-!!! Why-!!? Ugh-!! Y-You-!!!
Garofano (concerned) : Don’t look at me like that honey! Aur, mujhe Violet keh ke pukaaro please~ Call me informally! Don’t worry! Tumhe kuch nahi hoga. I just want you to be silent.
Veer : W-When did you-???
Badle me Garofano bas muskurayi. Aur, Veer ko turant samajh aa gaya ki uske saath kya hua.
Pichle dwaar se bhaagte waqt jaise hi Garofano ne uski kalaayi thaami thi...!!!
Wahi woh waqt tha jab usne apni ek chhoti si needle uski kalaayi me ghop di thi.
Garofano (smiles) : Mein hamesha tab hamla karti hu jab mere shikaar ko iski sabse kam umeed hoti hai, Veer. Jab woh mujh par sabse zyada bharosa karte hai aur mujhse pyaar karte hai.
Veer : Y-You-!!!
Garofano : Paralysis toxin!!! Mera apna banaya gaya toxin hai. Chaah ke bhi tum ise neutralize nahi kar sakte. *smiles* After all, system ki shop me tumhe iske liye koi skill nahi milegi. Iska cure sirf mera hi anti-toxin hai.
Veer (frowns) : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Mujhe pata tha tum hi ho woh- Y-You were the only one I was yearning for, Veer. No!! My honey!!
Veer : ??
Garofano : Pehle mujhe shaq bhi tha. Kya tum woh insaan hoge bhi ya nahi? Mene itni umeed nahi rakhi thi tumse. P-Par- Tum meri umeedo ke vipreet hi nikle Veer. Tum itne imaandar, bhaavuk… Yaha tak ki itne bhole the ki system holders ki parvah kar baithe? Fufu~ Tum sach me kamaal ho. Aur, isliye mein jald se jald tumhari taraf khichti chali gayi.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mene pehle socha tha ki agar tum mere raaste me aaye, aur tum woh vyakti na nikle jaisa maine socha tha… Toh, mein apne raaste se tumhe hamesha hamesha ke liye alag kar dene waali thi. Of course, abhi bhi tum mera target ho. *smiles* Farq sirf itna hai ki iss baar mein tumhe apne tareeqe se apne paas rakhna chaahti hu.
Veer (frowns) : Wh-What-!!? What do you want-!!?
Garofano : Maine kaha na Veer!
Veer : ??
Garofano : I won’t let you get hurt anymore.
Itna bol woh Veer ko apni goad me uthaayi. Scene ekdum hi alag tha. Ek princess carry me aksar ek ladka ek ladki ko iss tarah uthaata tha par, yaha Garofano Veer ko iss tarah se uthaayi hui thi. Uske chehre se muskaan hatne ka naam nahi le rahi thi.
Veer ko thaame woh sakri galiyo ki gehrayiyo me chalti gayi. Ek sabse chhipe hue kone ko dhoondh usne dheere se Veer ko neeche baithaya.
Woh uski orr jhuki aur uske labo ke paas aayi.
Garofano (smiles) : You just have to wait here. Okay, honey? I’ll settle this quickly.
Aur, neeche jhuk ek jhatke me usne Veer ke honth apne hontho ki giraft me bhar liye.
“Nnnnn~”
Ek siski Garofano ke muh se nikli. Aur, tabhi-
*Ding*
[You have been rewarded 1000 Points.]
Veer ke mann me ek notification ki ghanti baj uthi. Veer, inn points ko enjoy karne ki sthiti me nahi tha. Parantu,
Garofano : Ahhh~!!!
Garofano jhatka lete hue Veer ke hontho se alag hui. Zaahir hai, notification use bhi praapt hua tha.
Garofano (blushes) : W-Wait-!! You get points for this too??? K-Kya aisa isliye hai kyuki hum dono system holders hai? M-My god-!!
Veer toh ye pehle se hi jaanta tha. Pari ne use bata ke rakha tha ki jitni badi hasti ladki hogi, jitni behtar woh hogi uss hisaab se system use ladki ke sang intimate hone par points dega. Ye pehli baar tha jab Veer ne kisi system holder ladki ke hontho ko chooma tha.
Aur, Garofano ka iska na pata hona saaf darshata tha ki woh iss baat se anibhigya tha. Jiska kaaran sirf ek hi tha~
Usne kabhi bhi kisi aur mard ke saath koi bhi intimate relationship nahi rakha tha. Zaahir tha ki woh iss nayi khoj se poori tarah hairan thi. Saath hi kuch excited bhi.
*Skrrrrrrrrrrr*
Agle hi pal usne Veer ki shirt ko pakad ke kheecha aur shirt beech se fatati chali gayi. Saari buttons toot ke bikhar gayi.
Garofano (leans further) : Th-Then kya hoga agar-!? *smiles* Agar hum aur aage badhe, honey???
Uska haath Veer ke nange seene par firta hua upar jaane laga. Veer ke badan par ruye khade ho gaye. Ek sihran uski poore shareer me fel gayi.
Par, punah qadmo ki awaaz ne Garofano ke mood ko kharab kar diya.
Garofano : Jab ye sab khatam ho jayega. Mein tumhe apne saath leke chalungi, Veer. Wait for me here~
Veer chhaya me bina kisi sahayta ke bas laita hua dekhta raha jab tak ki Garofano gali se baahar nahi nikal gayi.
Aur, use kuch pal baad turant hi baahar ki awazein spasht roop se sunayi dene lagi.
Ethan : Hahahaha! Dekho zara kaun aaya hai. Arre? Woh ladka kaha hai? Lagta hai tumko chorr ke darr ke bhaag gaya. Hmm?
Garofano : Bhaag gaya? Hmph! He never runs away. Balki, tumhe apne baare me socha chahiye.
Ethan : Kya bakwaas hai? Nahi! Tumse yaha baat karna bewakoofi hai. Jao pakdo use!!
Halaki, thodi derr ki khamoshi ke baad, kuch bhaari gad-gadahat zameen par goonj gayi. Jaise maano kayi insaan neeche zameen par gir gaye ho. Aur, fir kisi ki ek kamzor kaapti hui awaaz aayi-
“Y-Ye kaise ho sakta hai? Ye ek ladki???”
Ethan ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi. Woh dehshat me chillaya.
Ethan : Y-Ye-!? Ye kaise-!? Kaise sambhav hai?
Garofano : Maine tumhe waqai me halke me le liya tha Ethan. Mujhe nahi laga tha ki tumhari tarah ek pyaada mujhe itni pareshaniya dega.
Ethan : ???
Garofano : Tum aur tumhara bhai dono hi mere shikaar the. Choonki, tumhare zariye maine Mr. Nicholson ko marwa hi diya. Ab baari aati hai tumhari- Right? *smiles*
Ethan (shocked) : M-Mere se marwaya-!?? K-Kya matlab hai tumhara?
Garofano bas muskurayi.
Ethan (screams) : M-Matlab woh tum thi jisne ye afwaah felayi thi ki jaydaad ka batwara hone waala hai???
Garofano (smiles) : Lagta hai tum itne bhi bewaqoof nahi, Ethan!
Poori gali me ek shaanti chhaa gayi.
Aur, iske baad Veer ko ek aur shareer ke girne ki dhamak mehsoos hui. Chand seconds ke baad hi, Garofano dobaara uske saamne haazir thi. Uske hontho par muskaan wesi hi feli hui thi.
Veer (frowns) : T-Tum-!? Iska matlab tum?
Woh hasi. Usne Veer ko punah apni goad me uthaya jaise maano Veer uska chhota beta ho. Use pyaar se apni baaho me liye woh alley ke baahar nikalne lagi.
Garofano : Kya soch rahe ho, Veer? Kya kuch kehna nahi hai?
Veer (growls) : So, it was you-!???
Garofano (smiles) : Of course! Aur, kaun ho sakta hai? Charles Nicholson aur Ethan Nicholson dono hi mere shikaar the. Khaas kar Charles Nicholson!!
Garofano ne apne rang aise badle the jaise girgit badalti thi. Kaha woh 'Dad-Dad' ki ratt lagayi hui thi aur kaha ab woh ye besharmo ki tarah qubool kar rahi thi ki iske peeche uska hi haath tha.
Garofano (frowns) : Mere asli Mom-Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki laparwahi se hi maare gaye the Veer.
Veer : ???
Woh Veer ko baaho me liye aage badhti jaa rahi thi aur apni kahani sunani jaa rahi thi.
Garofano : Mere Mom Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki ek factory me kaam karte the. Factory me aag lagne se unn dono ki jaan chali gayi. Aur, iss haram-zaade ne apne staff ko marne diya tha.
Veer : ??
Veer ko samajh aaya. Iska matlab woh Ryongchon Disaster me Garofano ke maa baap ka marna? Maatra jhooth tha.
Garofano : Iske peeche tab koi gang padi hui thi. Building ki zyada tehqiqaat na ho isliye isne case close kar diya tha. Jitne staff ke log maare gaye, unke baare me koi sawaal na kare isliye sabko ghoos khila ke isne saara maamla rafa dafa karwa diya tha.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Dad? Kaisa Dad? Ye woh aadmi tha jisne baad me unhi mare logo ke parivaar ke anaath logo ke saath shoshan kiya tha. Aur, iska plan toh mujhe bhogna bhi tha. Of course, aisa maine kabhi hone nahi diya.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Khubsoorat hone ke naate Charles mujhe kaise bhi kar ke bhogna chahta tha. Isliye, mujhe apni beti bana ke apne sang le gaya. Aur, tabhi mujhe system bhi mil gaya. Jis cheez ki mujhe talash thi wo mujhe akhir mil hi gayi.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Charles ko apni baato me fusla ke dheere dheere mein uske nirnayo par haawi hone lagi. Mein use apne khud ke banaye gaye sedatives deti jis se woh mere niyantran me rehta tha. Uske mann me maine apni ek atoot chhavi bana li thi. Magar, adanga tha ye Ethan Nicholson.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : Ye China me rehta tha. Lekin, iski poori nazar jaydaad par thi. Ye apne bhai se aur mujhse bhi nafrat karta tha. Mein hi thi woh jisne jaydaad baatne ki afwah felayi thi. Yaha tak ki will ki baat bhi jhooth hai. Mujhe pata tha ki Ethan apne bhai aur fir mujhe maar ke jaydaad par haq jatayega. Isliye, maine afwah fela di ki batwara ho raha hai.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Jabki aisa kuch bhi nahi hone waala tha. Gusse me aake, Ethan ne woh chaal chal hi di jiski mein na jaane kitne samay se aasha kar rahi thi. Ethan ne apne hi bhai ko maar daala. Aur, isi ke saath mera badla bhi poora ho chuka tha. Jaise jaise maine pyaade baithaaye the sabhi ne bilkul wesa hi kaam kiya tha.
Veer : ??
Garofano : Ab baaki tha toh sirf Ethan ke crime ke saboot police ko dena, par tabhi Renshu ne apni taang ada di.
Veer : P-Poison???
Garofano : Huh? Ohh! Of course body me paaya gaya poison mera hi tha. Renshu sach keh raha tha. *smiles* Maine Charles ki body me sui bhi ghopi thi aur poison bhi inject kiya tha. You know? Just to make sure he was dead. Lekin, woh pehle hi adhmara ho chuka tha. Ethan ke aadmiyo ne use pehle hi maar diya tha. I mean... Almost...! Fufu~
Veer (frowns) : A-Alibi-!?
Garofano : Hmm? Ohh? You mean agar mein apni workshop se bahar nahi nikli thi to crime location par pahuch ke woh needle kaise ghusedi? Right? Oh Veer! I'm a system owner. Kya ek system owner darwaze se hi aa jaa sakta hai? I jumped from the terrace. Fufu~
Veer ko ab sab samajh aa raha tha. Sab kuch Garofano ka hi plan tha. Yaha tak ki woh khud ek besahara naari ka vesh-bhusha banaaye khud ko nirdosh jataate hue inn sab ke peeche asli hatyari thi.
Garofano Veer ko car ki taraf le gayi. Veer ne dekha ki kaise sabhi ke sabhi log neeche sadak par behosh pade hue the.
*Click*
Darwaza khol back seat par Garofano ne bade hi komalta se Veer ko litaaya. Veer ka sarr car ke khule darwaze ki taraf tha jaha Garofano khadi hui thi.
Woh jhuki aur uske chehre ko pakad uske nazdeek aayi.
Garofano : But as I said~ I won't let anyone harm you!
Veer : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Iss tarah se mat dekho Veer. Dil dukhta hai. Charles ke saath wahi hua jo wo deserve karta tha. Also, Ethan ko mein nahi dekhungi. Use to police dekh legi. Sab kuch maine audio video sab record kar rakha hai. I have a hidden camera here~
Usne apne shrug ki ek badi si kaali button ki orr ishara karte hue kaha.
Woh muskurate hue jhuki, Veer ke hontho ko punah choomne ke liye par tabhi-
'Huh!!!???'
*Gwakh*
Ek mazboot haath ne uske gale ko daboch liya. Garofano ke hosh udd chuke the. Woh bhaybheet hote hue neeche Veer ko dekhi, jo uske gale ko jakde hue tha.
P-Par ye kaise? Veer hilne dulne ki haalat me nahi tha. Uska paralysis toxin kam se kam 3 ghante tak asardar rehta tha. Aur, toh aur system ki shop me bhi iska koi upaay nahi tha.
Iska upaay ya to yahi tha ki 3 ghante tak intezar kiya jaaye ya fir anti-paralysis toxin ka istemal kiya jaaye jiski vidhi sirf aur sirf uske hi paas thi.
Garofano ke paseene chooth rahe the. Veer ke chehre par koi bhaav nahi the. Aur, fir usne bolna shuru kiya.
Garofano : V-Veer-!? T-Tum-!?
Veer : Mein jaanta tha shuru se hi ki ye sab tumhara dhong tha.
Garofano : Ahh!??
Veer : Kyuki, poison sirf tumhare aur Renshu ke paas tha. Renshu khud hi body me poison dalwa ke mujhe autopsy ki report nahi bhejega. Isme koi shaq nahi tha ki body me poison tha. Aur woh poison do hi logo se aa sakta tha. Renshu and you!!!
Garofano : Ughh! Th-That's-!
Veer : Erica aur Renshu ka meri itni madad karna wahi dusri orr tumhara mere nazdeek aana, khul ke saari details bhi na dena aur sach ko chhipana. I already saw through it.
Garofano : T-To s-say such a thing-
Veer (smiles) : I was just seeing how far you will go.
Garofano (frowns) : K-Kaise-!? I knew I-
Veer (smiles) : You pricked me? Are you sure? *grins* Kya waqai tumhari sui meri kalaayi me dhasi thi?
Garofano : Urggh!!
Gale par Veer ki pakad mazboot ho rahi thi. Par, Garofano bas uski kalaayi ko thaami thi. Virodh nahi kar rahi thi.
Garofano : I-I... I did-!!
Veer ne tabhi apni shirt ki wrist ki button kholi aur usme se ek eraser jaisa kuch baahar nikal ke gira, jise dekh Garofano ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi.
Veer : Tumhari needle meri skin me nahi iss kneadable rubber eraser me ghusi thi. And you thought- *grins*
Paansa palat chuka tha. Jaha pehle Garofano poori tarah se Veer par haawi thi aur soch rahi thi ki sab kuch uske plan ke hisaab se hi gaya parantu, ab drishya ekdum ulta tha. Ab woh khud Veer ke qabze me thi.
Garofano (shocked) : Wh-When did you-!?
Veer (smiles) : You don't need to know that.
Veer ne agle hi shan use ek baar me chorr diya. Garofano apne gale ko pakadte hue peeche hui aur lambi lambi saansein lene lagi. Veer abhi bhi usi tarah araam se car me leta hua tha aur iss baar wo tha jo muskura ke use dekh raha tha.
Garofano : T-Tumbe mujhe... Yuhi chorr diya?
Veer (smiles) : I believe you!
Garofano : Huh?
Veer : Because I know you won't hurt me.
Badle me woh bhi muskurayi. Punah uski orr aage aayi. Veer shan bhar ke liye sachet hua par jab uske tapte garam honth aake Veer ke hontho par lage toh woh kuch kehne ki haalat me hi na raha.
*Kiss*
Ek chhoti si hi kiss thi. Khud ko dur ko Garofano muskurayi. Itna sab hone ke baad bhi woh Veer ko kiss karne se peeche nahi hatt rahi thi. Chand pal pehle hi Veer ne uske gale ko jakad rakha tha.
Garofano : Tumhe yaha se jaana chahiye Veer. Mujhe ye sab settle karne me ek din kam se kam lagega hi lagega. Zyada bhi lag sakta hai. Toh mein mine ke matter ke liye tumhare saath nahi aa paungi. I'm sorry. But tum jaante ho ki mujh par bhi sanctions lage hai. Inn dino mein busy rehne waali hu.
Veer : Got it!!
Woh tabhi daud ke apni workshop me gayi aur ek packet baahar leke aayi.
Veer : What's this?
Garofano (smiles) : It's a shirt! Meri taraf se. Tumhare liye. It's all black!!!
Veer : Ohh? Thanks, I guess?
Garofano uski collor pakad use kheench ke uske kaan ko apne labo tak laayi aur fir haule se boli,
Garofano : Mine ke matter ke liye, Renshu tumhare saamne do prastaav rakhega Veer. Pehla ki tribal logo ki territory me jaana aur ladna. Aur, dusra ki seedha Legion ke Head Jaw Long ke paas jaana aur usko khatam karna.
Veer : ???
Garofano : And if you're smart enough. Then, you know what to choose right? Galti se bhi Jaw Long se ladne ke liye khud ko aage mat karna. Your safety is important. Mein aas paas nahi rahungi, so I won't be able to help you out.
Veer : I know what to do. Don't worry!
Garofano (frowns) : Veer please~!!! Jaw Long se ladne tum nahi jaoge. Kya tum khud ki safety ke baare me nahi soch sakte? Tumhari family bhi hai. Don't take risks.
Veer : I know!
Garofano (nods) : Mein jald hi aaungi. Till then... Take care...!
Woh Veer ke gaal par haath ferr waha se nikal gayi. Zaahir hai usne police ko call kar diya tha. Aur, sab kuch police ko saupne waali thi. Ethan ab chaah ke bhi iss se baahar nahi aa sakta tha.
Toh wahi Veer Renshu ki car leke wapas uske ghar ke liye nikal chuka tha.
Car me hi uske mission ki notification uske dimag me goonj chuki thi.
*Ding*
['Mission : Unmask the culprit' has been completed.]
[You have been rewarded 3000 points.]
Veer ne case ko handle karne se pehle hi Intelligence 10 points se badha liya tha. Woh jaanta tha ki yaha pe dimaag ke ghode daudaane ki zaroorat thi. Aur, woh extra 10 intelligence ne hi aaj use bacha liya tha.
Woh aage aane waale dino ke baare me sochta hua gaadi sarpat raaste par daudata chala gaya.
***
Mumbai...
Kaera's home...
Night ~ 10:12 PM
Ghar me jhunjhlate hue aaj pehli baar Kaera apne kamre me aayi. Uske iss ravaiyye se ghar me maujood kaam karne waala saara staff hairaan tha.
Aisa aam taur par nahi hota tha. Kabhi kabhi hi woh log Miss Kaera ko gusse me dekh paate the.
Julia jo ki Kaera ke kamre me saaf safaayi hi kar rahi thi, apni Miss ko gusse me aate dekh thodi aashcharya me reh gayi.
Usne dekha ki peeche peeche Karan bhi aaya hua tha.
Julia : Eh!??
Kaera aate hi bistar par baith gayi. Aur, apni aankhein band kar na jaane kin vicharo me leen ho gayi.
Julia : I-Is something the matter? Master Karan?
Karan : A-Actually, hua ye ki... Jis company se hamari deal hone waali thi. Woh company achanak hi Elite Motors se deal kar li. Aur, Elite Motors... You know very well...! Sonia di-!!!
Julia : Ahh! I see!
Karan : Dii ka kehna hai ki Ruchika dii ne kuch gadbad kar di. Kyuki, Ruchika dii ne jaisa bataya tha aur jaisa plan kiya tha wesa kuch hua nahi. Balki, Elite Motors ne woh sab pehle hi kar diya tha. Mujhe nahi pata ki unn logo ne ye kaise kiya. Kaise deal dii ke haatho se leli... But, kuch gadbad hamari hi taraf se hui hai, I think.
Julia : I see!
Karan : Dii ka dhyaan rakhna Julia please. She's mad right now.
Julia (smiles) : Don't worry Master Karan.
Karan itna bol waha se nikal gaya. Parantu, Kaera ka mood aise hi sahi nahi hone waala tha. Kabhi aisa nahi hua tha. Upar se Sonia-!!!!
Kaera : Where's Veer Julia?
Veer ki jankari ikhatta karne ka kaam Kaera ne Julia ko hi saupa tha. Julia sirf maid nahi thi. Uske neeche bhi maids thi jo uske liye kaam karti thi. Woh maids jo ghar se leke baahar ke kaamo me bhi maahir thi.
Julia : You keep pushing him away. Why would he care?
Kaera : Wh-What!??? A-Aisa kab hua? Maine kab use khud se dur kiya?
Julia : When was the last time you had a beautiful chat with him?
Kaera : I-
Woh maun reh gayi. Use waqai yaad nahi tha ki akhiri baar Veer ke sang baith ke usne kab baat-cheet ki thi.
Julia : I keep telling you, young miss!
Kaera (glances) : Huh?
Julia : Do you know what's the meaning of a 'good woman'?
Kaera : A good woman?
Julia : A good woman never points out the unnecessary flaws of her partner. A woman's role is to support her man.
Kaera : Huh?
Julia : You are someone who can make Young Master Veer feel like a king just by being beside him. That's what a good woman does. She can boost the confidence of her man no matter what the situation remains.
Kaera : M-Mein jaanti hu but-
Julia : A good woman will never say 'You are lucky to have me.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Mein aisi nahi hu Julia. H-How can I-!?
Julia : A good woman will never say 'Earn more money.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Maine kab?
Julia : You did it indirectly. Weren't you the one who told me you want Young Master Veer to become more rich in order to have you?
Kaera : Ahh-! N-No-! You misunderstood Julia!
Julia : And lastly...
Kaera : Huh???
Julia : A good woman is never too busy for her partner. When she's asking the whereabouts of her partner from her maid...! That explains everything!
Kaera (frowns) : J-Julia-!!!
Kaera pehle se hi pareshan thi. Upar se Julia ne uske dil par ghaat aur pahucha di thi. Kintu, Julia ne jo kuch bhi kaha tha woh apne dil se aur sach hi kaha tha.
Julia Kaera ko akela chhor baahar jaane lagi par jaate jaate woh darwaze ki dehleez par ruki,
Julia : Please! Take down your mask, young miss. You don't need any mask in front of Young Master Veer.
Kaera : I-
Julia : This time you lost just the deal. If you keep behaving like this... You might lose Young Master Veer himself.
Kaera : Huh!????
Aur, itna bol Julia waha se ravana ho gayi. Reh gayi toh bas Kaera aur uski aankhon se behte aasu.

Aaj ke liye itna hi guys.
This update consists of approx 8k words. Iss update me sab clear kar diya gaya hai. Agle se poora mine ka matter hi hai. Garofano out of the scene rahegi as you know ki use apna case settle karna hai abhi. So abhi ek do updates me to woh nahi dikhne wali hai. Baaki, target apna wahi hai. 170. Likes thokne ka aur revos rakhne ka.
Dhanyavaad!
Super amazing update BhaiUpdate - 173 ~ Unmasked
[Note : Update bada hai toh itminaan se padhna.]
Ab tak...
Tej (nods) : Hmm! Kuch pata nahi lag paa raha ki woh kaha gaya hai. India se baahar hai. Bas keh deta hai ki business ke silsile me baahar aaya hu. Par- par mujhe lagta hai ki woh humse kuch chhipa raha hai Mom. Iss baar mein use chorrne waali nahi hu. Mein use itni asaani se maaf nahi karungi. Aur, aap bhi mujhe kuch nahi bolengi.
Bhavna ki bauhe kasi hui thi. Uska laadla bina bataaye ghar se chala gaya? Kaha gaya hoga bhala? Woh ek chintan me doob gayi.
Ab aage...
Garofano riha ho chuki thi. Magar, sab kuch samapt nahi hua tha. Case abhi bhi ruka hua tha aur hatyara abhi bhi salaakho ke peeche nahi tha.
Case behad hi pecheeda tha. Kintu, Veer ne ise bhaanp liya tha ki iski gathaane kis tarah bandhi hui thi.
Ghatnao ko agar kram anusar lagaya jaaye toh woh kuch iss prakar se ghatit hui thi.
Mr. Nicholson ka apni beti ke sang China aana.
Woh jaydad ka batwaara kar rahe hai aur apne chhote bhai se rishte naate tod dena chaahte hai, isliye yaha aaye hai.
Woh apni beti Violet ki personal workshop par jaate hai.
Unka workshop se nikalna aur fir achanak se gayab ho jaana.
Unki laash ek khandahar me praapt hona jo ki sheher se kaafi duri par tha.
Ye tha ghatnakram hatya ke poorv se leke hatya tak ka. Parantu, asli gutthi toh yaha se aarambh hui thi. Jaha police aake apni investigation par poornviram laga chuki thi toh wahi Veer ke liye ab ye investigation shuru hui thi. Kyuki, yahi se system owners aur unke kathan shaamil ho chuke the.
Renshu ka kehna tha ki mrat shareer me pehle se hi zeher paaya gaya tha. Hospital waalo ne autopsy ki report me bhi yahi bataya tha. Aur, use yakeen hai ki yeh Garofano ka hi kaam tha.
Kintu, Garofano saboot mita ke chali gayi thi. Isliye, Renshu ne Garofano ki tohfe me di hui woh needles dobara se laash par Erica ke dwara wahi chhudhwa di. Upar se ek needle uski workshop me bhi Erica chupke se rakh aayi. Taaki, police crime location par mile saboot ko workshop me mile saboot se match kar sake. Aur, Garofano ko jail bhej sake.
Renshu ki nazro me Garofano hi hatyari thi.
Magar, dusri orr Garofano ye qubool karne ko taiyaar nahi thi. Uske kathan ke anusar woh nirdosh thi. Aur, ye sab Renshu dwara use fasaane ke liye kiya gaya tha.
Saare saboot uske khilaaf the. Uske paas apni begunahi saabit karne ke liye kuch nahi tha. Uska kehna yahi tha ki usne apne pita ki hatya nahi ki hai. Usne Renshu ke upar ilzaam zaroor lagaya tha. Parantu, ilzaam ye lagaya tha ki Renshu use fasa raha hai. Ye nahi lagaya ki Renshu ne uske pita ko maara hai.
Ye baat Veer ke dimaag me baith chuki thi. Woh chaahti toh dosh Renshu par daal sakti thi jaise usne uss par daala tha. Veer ne jab uss se iska kaaran pucha tha toh usne bas yahi jawaab diya tha ~
"Maine Dad ko nahi maara hai, Veer! Why would I? Aur, mein ye kaise keh du ki Renshu ne unhe maara hai? Mein itna jaanti hu ki usne mujhe fasaya hai. Dad ko kisne maara, ye main nahi jaanti. Toh aise me dosh kaise daal sakti hu kisi par?"
"What about the past illustration?"
"Agar, insaan marrne se pehle apne hosh kho de toh hum uske past me ye nahi dekh sakte ki uske baad uske saath kya hua. Zaahir hai behoshi me mere Dad ko maara gaya hoga. Past mein chaah ke bhi poora nahi dekh paayi."
Yaha Veer ko system ki ek nayi jankari haath lagi thi. Agar, marrne waala vyakti apni maut ke chand pal pehle hi behosh ho jaaye toh use toh pata hi nahi chalega ki uske saath kya hua.
Aise me system uska past poorn roop se nahi dikha payega. Uski maut kisne ki ye chhip ke reh jayega.
Garofano ke iss khathan me kitni sachayi thi ye Veer nahi jaanta tha. Magar, kabhi na kabhi woh ise aazma ke dekh hi sakta tha. Usne punah apne prashn rakhe~
"Tumne kuch toh dekha hoga? Kaun the woh log? Kitne log the?"
"Yes!!! Kayi saare log the. Dad meri workshop se jab nikle the toh unn logo ne dad ko follow karna shuru kar diya tha. Uske baad woh unhe gher ke uss location par le gaye. Aur, fir...!"
"Kuch aur detail?"
"Sirf itna hi pata chala ki kuch aadmi the aur sabhi muh par kapda baandhe hue the."
"Isliye, tum Renshu par blame nahi daal rahi?"
"Of course! Mujhe nahi pata woh uske aadmi the ya kisi aur ke. Aise me mein kisi par bhi ungli nahi utha sakti Veer."
Inhi kuch baato ke chalte Veer kaafi kuch iss case ko samajh chuka tha. Gunde zaroor Ethan Nicholson ke the. Erica jo report laayi thi usme saaf saaf ye zahir tha ki haal hi me Ethan ne underworld gangs se contact kiya hai.
Garofano ka riha hona bhi itna saral nahi tha. Woh pehle hi jail se bhaag chuki thi. Isliye, uss par bhi kanoon todne ke kuch sanctions lage the.
Magar, woh filhal ke liye jail se chooth chuki thi. Needles par Garofano ke koi bhi fingerprints nahi paaye gaye the. Body par bhi Garofano ka koi fingerprint maujood nahi tha. Yaha tak ki uski odour bhi crime spot par K-9 unit bhaanp nahi paaye the.
Parantu, sabse bada saboot jiski wajah se Garofano choothi woh tha uski workshop ka CCTV footage.
Mr. Charles Nicholson apni beti ke sang uski workshop me aaye the. CCTV me sab qaid hua tha. Aur, kuch derr baad Mr. Nicholson workshop se nikal gaye. Ghar se baahar nikalne ke do raaste the. Aage se aur peeche se. Aur, dono hi taraf CCTV maujood the. Magar, dono hi CCTV me Garofano apni workshop se nikalti hui dikhayi nahi di.
Iska matlab saaf tha ki Garofano ki alibi confirm ho chuki thi. Jiss waqt Mr. Nicholson baahar khandhar me mrat paaye gaye the. Uss waqt Garofano apni workshop me hi thi. Woh workshop se baahar nikli hi nahi thi.
Inn tamaam sabooto ki wajah se aur FBCC ke involvement ke kaaran, China ke court ko apna faisla turant ke turant badalna pada. Ab Ethan Nicholson tha jise sawaalo ke uttar dene the.
Lag-bhag 2 din me hi Veer ne saara case suljha diya tha. Raat ke 10 baj rahe the aur woh ab Renshu se mine ke silsile me baat karne hi jaa raha tha jab-
*Ding*
[Mission : Unmask the culprit.
Rewards : ???? Points.
Time Limit : 8 hours.
Mission Failure Penalty : No Penalty.]
'What!!??'
Veer stabdh tha. Khush bhi tha ki itne samay baad akhir kaar use mission praapt hua magar, mission iss waqt milna jab sab kuch saamne hi tha. Ye baat koi sense nahi bana rahi thi.
Mission fail hone ki koi penalty nahi thi ye dekh kar usne ek rahat ki saans li. Ye points uske hi the.
Woh abhi kuch aur sochta ki itne me uske samaksh Garofano aake khadi ho gayi.
Garofano : Veer!!!
Veer : Hmm?
Garofano : Mein ab detention me nahi hu. Toh... Kya tum mere saath meri workshop chaloge?
Veer : Ohh? Workshop ki key police waalo ne tumhe wapas dedi?
Garofano (smiles) : Mujhe kaise de sakte hai? Mein abhi bhi bhaagi hui qaidi hu unki nazro me. Divya aur hamare lawyer ko di gayi thi key. Maine Divya se leli hai. So? Kya tum chaloge?
Veer : Kuch zaroori kaam hai?
Garofano (nods) : Hmm-Mmm~! Choonki, promise ke anusar ab mine ke silsile me mein yaha busy hone waali hu toh kuch important cheezein waha se uthaani thi.
Veer : Ohh! Sure! Why not?
Garofano : Really?
Veer : Of course!
Garofano (smiles) : Thank you!
Woh muskurati hui uska haath pakad use kheechte hue baahar ko le jaane lagi.
Erica aur Renshu dono saath me hi wahi baithe the jis kamre se hoke Garofano aur Veer guzar rahe the.
Erica : Tumhari fir koi nayi chaal hai kya?
Garofano : Mein Veer ko apni workshop leke jaa rahi hu. Mujhe waha se kuch zaroori samaan uthana hai. Car ki key chahiye mujhe.
Erica : Hum koi car ki chaavi tumhe nahi-
Renshu (nods) : Theek hai!
Erica : Wh-Whattt? Dad???
Renshu : Chaavi dedo Erica!!!
Iss baar bhi harr baar ki tarah ulta hi hua. Jab jab wo kuch karne jaati, uske Dad uss se vipreet nirnay suna dete the.
Woh daant meeste hue uthi aur chaavi ko usne be-mann se Garofano ki orr fek diya. Divya apne escort me sang baaki formalities ko poora karne me lagi hui thi toh woh iss waqt yaha nahi thi.
Ye mauka Veer ke liye sahi tha.
Aur, dono Veer Garofano Renshu ke ghar se ravana hoke workshop ki orr chal diye.
***
*Kuch derr baad*
Woh dono workshop pahuch chuke the. Sheher se ye workshop thodi duri par thi. Garofano ka kehna tha ki woh zyada shor waali jagahe pasand nahi karti thi, isliye iss jagah ko usne apni workshop ke liye chuna tha. Jagah buri nahi thi. Bas, thodi sunsaan thi. Aas paas ghar nahi the, showrooms, cafes bas yahi sab the jo lights se raushan ho rakhe the.
Unhe yaha aane me hi lagbhag 2 ghanta lag chuka tha. Raat ke 12 baj rahe the aur sabhi apne apne vyapaar ki dukaano ko band kar apne ghar jaa chuke the.
Garofano : Aao Veer! Please~
*Click*
Garofano ne ek lambe se darwaaze ka lock khola aur Veer ko andar ki orr le gayi. Usne ek switch ghumaya aur garm peeli roshni ne kamre ke samaan ko raushan kar diya. Bhale hi itne dino se ghar band hone ke kaaran dhool ki ek patli parat jagah jagah jama ho gayi thi par fir bhi Veer mehsoos kar sakta tha ki ghar mool roop se kitna sundar aur saath hi saath aramdayak tha.
Kayi jagah Garofano ke haath se banaaye kapde mannequins par tange hue the, saath hi decorations jo kamre ki saaj-sajja ko aur bhi nikhaar rahe the.
Veer : Y-Ye sab-!? Ye sab tumne banaya hai?
Wese toh usne pehle hi check kar ke ye pata laga liya tha parantu, fir bhi woh Garofano ke muh se sunn’na chaahta tha.
Garofano : Haan! Ye sab abhi bhi poori tarah se taiyaar nahi hai.
Usne aage badh wahi rakhe mannequin par lipti ek dress ko dheere se sehla kar, ek aah bharte hue kaha.
Garofano : Well? Jisne ye order diya tha, woh toh ab ise kabhi bhi nahi pehen sakta.
Uska ishaara mannequin par tange ek coat ki taraf tha. Veer samajh gaya. Shayad Garofano ke Dad apne liye iss coat ka order deke gaye the. Kintu, use pehen'ne se pehle hi woh chal base.
Garofano ki nazre wahi rakhe ek flower vase par gayi.
Garofano : Itne dino baad lauti hu ki phool bhi murjha gaye hai.
Veer : It’s okay! Taaza phulo se hum inhe badal denge. *smiles*
Garofano (smiles) : Hmm! Mein washroom se aati hu. Feel free to look around Veer~
Uske jaate hi Veer kuch qadam aage badh wahi kamre me tehelne laga. Mannequins ko dekhte hue woh dresses ko bhi parakh raha tha. Na jaane udhar Mumbai me Louis aur baaki sabhi Yarnia ko lekar kitna aage badhe honge? Uske WhatsApp par na jaane kitne saare messages dale hue the. Jinme se sabse zyada Tej aur Kavya ke hi the.
Kintu, Veer ke paas filhal kisi ko bhi reply dene ka samay nahi tha. Woh jaanta tha ki agar usne reply diya toh aur 100 sawaal uske sarr aa jayenge.
Abhi woh tehel hi raha tha jab uske kaan achanak hi kuch halchal sunn khade ho gaye. Woh turant hi ek deewaar ke peeche chhip gaya aur tabhi-
*BAAAAANNNGGGG*
Tezz awaaz ke saath ghar ke saamne ka darwaaza dhadalle se achanak khul gaya. Kayi saare log haatho me hathiyaar liye aa dhamke. Aur, unke saamne ek patla sa vyakti tha jo shayad inn aadmiyo ka boss prateet ho raha tha.
Aadmi : Aapko pakka yakeen hai na Mr. Nicholson? Ki woh yahi hai?
Ethan Nicholson : Haan Haan! Yahi woh ghar hai! Hmph! Mere khabri ne mujhe khabar di hai ki usne inn logo ko andar jaate dekha hai. Uske saath koi- koi aur bhi hai. Dhundho unhe jaldi!
Veer ko turant ke turant hi samajh aa gaya ki bhala iss waqt Mr. Nicholson ka ye chhota bhai yaha kyu aaya hua tha. Woh ek aise mauqe ki talaash kar raha tha jaha woh uske aur Garofano ke khilaaf qadam utha sake.
Veer chaahta toh aage badh unhe maar maar ke unki khatiya khadi kar deta. Parantu, yaha dimaag se chalne ki zaroorat thi. Agar woh baahar nikal unn sab se ladta toh zaahir hai ki unme se koi bhi uska saamna nahi kar paata.
Par, unki dhulayi karne ke baad kya? Veer unki jaan nahi le sakta tha aur na hi lena chahta tha. Aise me agar woh firse kahi court chale gaye ya unhone maar peet ka evidence pesh kar diya, toh ye case aur badh jaane waala tha.
Aur, dusra kaaran jo use rok raha tha woh ye ki Mr. Nicholson ka chhota bhai Garofano ka ek prakaar se relative hi tha. Muh bola hi sahi par rishtedaar toh lagta hi tha. Yaha woh bina Garofano ki anumati ke koi action nahi lena chahta tha. Dekhne se lag raha tha shayad Ethan Nicholson bail par tha.
Woh abhi paristithi se nikalne ke baare me soch hi raha tha jab achanak do narm thande haath uski gardan aur gaalo ko sehlate hue uske muh par aaye aur use dhak liye.
Veer : !!??
Garofano : Shhhh!!! Mein hu Veer~
Woh peeche se uss se aake lipat gayi. Uske baalo se aati anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me pravesh ki. Garofano ke dil ki dhadkan use apni peeth par mehsoos ho rahi thi. Veer ne use apni gardan mod ke dekh ek haami bhari. Uski nazre jaise puch rahi thi ki aage kya karna hai?
Garofano : Ek peeche ka darwaza bhi hai. Hum waha se nikal sakte hai. Aao mere saath-! Inse bhidna theek nahi. Inke khilaf pehle saboot ikhatta karna hoga.
Veer ne use pal bhar ke liye dekha. Jaise kehna chaah raha ho ki kya waqai hum system owners inn aam aadmiyo se darr kar bhaag rahe hai?
Aur, Garofano ne bhi jaise uske mann ki baat padh li, isliye woh turant hi haule se boli.
Garofano : Hum darr ke nahi bhaag rahe, Veer. Par, harr baar taqat nahi dikhayi jaati. Come!
Woh Veer ko leke peeche ke darwaaze ki orr badhi. Uski awaaz behad hi shaant thi jaise ki woh achanak hue iss hamle se zara bhi vichlit nahi thi. Ye jaante hue bhi ki uske Dad ke sage chhote bhai hi inn sab ke peeche the.
Veer ko pata hi nahi chala ki Garofano uske itna qareeb akhir kaise aa gayi thi? Uske mann me ek ajeeb si anubhooti jaagi. Lekin, sochne ka samay nahi tha.
Dead Silence!! Yahi woh skill thi. Pehli baar jab woh uss se mila tha tab bhi Garofano ne Dead Silence ka prayog kiya tha. Veer ko ye yaad tha.
‘Such a deadly skill! I’m jealous!’
[Indeed.]
Aadmiyo ki nazro se bachte hue woh dono hi tamaam samaano ki aadh me pichhle dwaar tak pahuch gaye.
Garofano : Yahi hai gate peeche ka. Yaha se hum-
*BAAAAAANNNNGGGGG*
Woh bolti ki iske pehle hi ek bullet tezi se Garofano ke perr par lagne ko aayi magar-
*Swishhhh*
Woh ek jhatke me bagal ko ho gayi. Peeche ke gate par bhi kuch aadmi aa chuke the. Shayad woh sabhi poori planning se aaye the.
Ethan Nicholson (shouts) : Violet!!! Dhokebaaz aurat….!!! Bhaagne ki firaaq me thi tum? Hai na? Hahaha! Dusro se kaam nikalwane me tumhara koi jawab nahi. Ye ladka…! Zaroor, tum hi ho woh jisne ye case apne haath me liya, hai na?
Garofano : Mr. Ethan? No!!! Ethan!!! Tumne hi mere Dad ko maara hai. Aur, mein chup nahi baithne waali.
Ethan : Tchhh!!! Agar, tumhare bagal se khada woh kameena mere raaste me na aaya hota toh mein kab ka qamyab ho gaya hota. Yaha tak ki will ki saari property mere naam ho gayi hoti. Lekin, sirf iski wajah se… sirf iski wajah se… Mujhe jail jaana pada. Woh toh bhala ho ki police ko mere khilaaf thos saboot nahi mil paaya. Aur, shukriya mere lawyer ka jiski wajah se mujhe do din ki bail mil gayi. Ab sab kuch mere hisaab se hi chalega…!
Garofano : …!?
Ethan : Kya saboot dilwaya tha tumne? Haha? Apni alibi ka? Woh main darwaze par laga CCTV aur uski recording na? Maine woh CCTV uda diya hai. Hahahaha! Aur, ye raha tumhara dusra CCTV...!
*BANG*
Usne pichle darwaaze par lage CCTV ki taraf apni bandook se nishana laga ke fire kiya aur dusre CCTV ke bhi chithde udd gaye.
Ethan : Hahahaha!!! Ab yaha kya hua, kaise hua, kisi ko kuch nahi pata chalega.
Garofano : To think that... Mere Dad ko tumne maara...! Tumne-!!!
Ethan (screams) : Ye sab tumhari wajah se hua hai. Sab tumhari galti hai.
Veer : Shut up!
Ethan : H-Huh-!?
Veer : Tum lucky the jo uss waqt Violet ko koi aur fasaana chaahta tha. Apne bade bhai ko tumne pehle hi maar diya tha. Ye tumhari kismat thi jo waha par Violet ke khilaaf saboot koi aur chorr gaya. Tum darre hue the. Tumhe lag raha tha ki body ko tumne thikaane nahi lagaaya. Tum kaise bach paoge? Tabhi, tumhe khabar mili ki Violet ke khilaaf murder scene par saboot milne ki wajah se use arrest kar liya gaya hai. Aur, tab tumhari khushi ka koi thikaana nahi tha. Hai na? Tum ye mauka apne haath se nahi jaane dena chaahte the. Right?
Ethan (screams) : Sh-Shut upppp!!!! You bastard!!!!
Veer ki ek ek baat khanjar ki tarah Ethan ke shareer me ghup rahi thi. Harr baat jaise sach prateet ho rahi thi. Ethan gusse se jhunjhlaya hua tha. Uska poora badan krodh me kaanp raha tha.
Baat sach thi ki woh body ko samay par thikane nahi lagwa paaya tha. Kyuki, usi waqt waha kisi ke aane ki aahat paake uske aadmi waha se bhaag gaye the.
Use laga tha ki woh ab gaya. Ab woh fass jayega. Kintu, agle hi din Garofano ke khilaf police ne crime sthal par saboot dhoondh nikaale the. Woh jaan chuka tha ki uss waqt jo log aaye the woh zaroor wahi log honge jinhone Garofano ke khilaf waha saboot chorre honge.
Zaahir hai, woh shaks Erica hi thi.
Veer : Par, sach chhipaya nahi jaa sakta. Tumne socha ki iss se accha mauka Violet ko fasaane ka nahi milega. Aur, isliye tum underground ho gaye. Tumne turant hi iss case ko proceed karwaya jisme minimum se minimum investigation ki gayi. Of course, tumhari kahani ke hisaab se tum apne conclusion par pahuch hi gaye the.
Ethan : H-Huh!?
Veer (grins) : Jab tak mein iss kahani me nahi aaya tha!!!
Ethan : Y-You-!!!! *shouts* You bastard!!! M-Mein tumhe dikhaata hu…! Jao! Unn dono ko pakad ke mere paas lao. Mujhe wo dono zinda chahiye!!!
Usne apne haath se ishara kiya aur ek ke baad ek gunde Veer aur Garofano ki taraf badhne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Ding*
[Beowulf's Blessings has been activated.]
Ek gunde ne Veer ke chehre ki taraf jaise hi ek pipe ghumaya, Veer ne baaju hote hi badi hi saralta se use dodge kar liya.
Veer ko achanak iss tarah hamla dodge karte dekh gunde aapas me chaunke par fir gambheer hote hue dobara vaar karne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
Magar, harr prayas vifal. Veer ne mauka dekha aur turant hi Garofano ko darwaaze ke baahar dhakela.
Turant ke turant wo khud bhi nikla par tabhi-
*Bang*
Ethan ki bullet uski baah ko graze karte hue nikal gayi. Bullet uske haath ko kharochte hue gayi thi. Khoon behna shuru ho chuka tha.
Garofano (concerned) : Veeeerrr???
Veer : Don't worry!!! Quick!!!
Garofano : I know!!!
Garofano ne Veer ki kalaayi thaami, use dekha. Aur, tezi ke saath waha se bhaagi. Ghar se lagi hui kayi saari alleys bani hui thi. Unhi me se ek alley me woh Veer ko leke uske sang andar ghus gayi.
Ethan (screams) : Madarchodo-!!! Pakdo unhe-!!!
Veer ko unke qadmo ki awaaz sunayi de rahi thi. Par, woh sab ke sab clueless idhar se udhar bhatak rahe the. Jab qadmo ki awaaz poori tarah se band ho gayi, toh Veer ne Beowulf ko band kar diya.
Veer : Kya soch ke woh yaha aaya tha?
Garofano : Socha hoga ki kuch gundo ke lekar jaunga toh ye amla naari kya hi mera kuch bigaad payegi.
Veer : Uss bechare ko nahi pata tha ki hum system owners hai. Too bad!!
Garofano chalte hue uske nazdeek aayi aur chintit nazro se woh uske haath ko dekhi jaha se khoon abhi bhi tapak raha tha. Use koi zyada chot nahi aayi thi. Kuch hi ghanto me ye chot poori tarah se theek ho jaane wali thi. Ye baat Garofano khud bhi jaanti thi. Magar, uske bawajood woh chinta vyakt kar rahi thi. Kahi na kahi use khushi thi ki Veer use bachaane ke liye aage aaya. Ye jaante hue bhi ki woh khud ek system owner thi. Toh kahi use gham bhi tha Veer ki abhi ki haalat dekh ke.
Garofano : Mujhe dekhne do!
Veer : What?? Y-Ye? Don’t worry! Ye theek ho jayega!!
Garofano ne bina uski baat maane hi ek jhatke me uski aasteen faad ke alag kar di.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mein jaanti hu ki ye tumhari liye maamuli chot hai. P-Par- Par, mere liye nahi hai.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : I’m sorry! Na mein tumhe yaha laati, aur na hi ye sab kuch hota.
Veer : Pagal ho kya? Ye kuch bhi nahi hai! Don’t overreact! Hume thodi pata tha ki woh Ethan iss tarah ki tactic khel jayega. Now that I see it. He’s so dumb. Agar, Renshu ne woh sui waha nahi chorri hoti toh ye bewakoof khud ko kabhi bhi nahi bacha paata.
Parantu, iske baad bhi Garofano maayus prateet ho rahi thi. Jaise woh khud ko hi dosh de rahi thi.
Veer : Umm-!! Well-
Garofano (glances) : Hmm?
Veer (blushes) : A-Agar tum kuch karna hi chaahti ho toh- W-Well! Actually… Woh jo button tumne sili thi woh gir gayi abhi waha ladte waqt. T-Toh-
Garofano ki nigaahein kuch pal ke liye timtimayi. Jaise maano paar-darshi ho rahi ho. Veer unn aankhon me doob ke kuch na kuch paa sakta tha. Par, iske pehle ki woh aur dekh paata turant hi woh aankhein punah apardarshi ho gayi.
Garofano (smiles) : Iss baar sirf button nahi, Veer! I’ll make a shirt for you!!!
Veer : O-Oh!
Veer uski muskaan me jaise kho sa gaya.
Garofano : Par uss se pehle- Let me do the dressing!
Uske paas hamesha ek first aid kit hoti hi thi. Turant hi apne shrug ko khol usne andar ke jebo se kayi saari bandages nikaali. Jab usne apna shrug khola toh Veer ne dekha ki kaise tarah tarah alag alag akaar ki sui shrug ke andar fix latki hui thi. Yaha tak ki zeher ki woh sheeshi ka bhi alag se jeb bana hua tha. Woh aage aayi aur cotton se komalta se khoon ko pochi. Aur, uske baad disinfectant lagate hue, ek ointment ki parat upar chadha kar bandage ko baandhne lagi.
Garofano : Ho gaya…!
Veer : W-Well! Thanks!
Garofano (mutters) : No one will hurt you from now on!
Veer : Huh!!??
Garofano ne bahut hi dheere se bola tha. Magar, Veer ke senses tez the. Agar, koi aam insaan hota toh woh sunn nahi paata. Parantu, Veer ne sunn liya tha. Aur, sunane ke baad bhi use apne kaano par vishavaas nahi ho raha tha. Kya Garofano ne wahi kaha tha jo usne abhi abhi suna?
Tabhi, ek baar fir unn gundo ke qadmo ki awaaz Veer ke kaano me padi.
Veer : Ye bewakoof log firse-
Lekin, iske pehle ki woh apni baat poori keh paata, use apne haath par ek chubhan mehsoos hui. Aur, fir sunnata uski baah se uske poore shareer tak fel gayi. Use lakwa maar chuka tha. Veer ka vision dhundhla hone laga, usne apna santulan khoya aur woh peeche ki orr girne laga jaha ek narm, garm aalingan me woh utar gaya.
Veer ne dekha ki Garofano ki goad me woh gir chuka tha.
Veer (shocked) : Y-You-!!!!!????
Garofano : It’s okay! It’s okay! Don’t be scared. Kuch nahi hone waala tumhe. It’s alright, honey!
Veer : !!!???
Garofano : Bas, tumhe ab dakhal dene ki zaroorat nahi, my dear.
Veer upar uthane ki koshish karta hai. Uske gaal Garofano ke lambe reshmi baalo se dhake hue the. Aur, uski anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me bhar rahi thi.
Veer : G-Garofano-!!! Why-!!? Ugh-!! Y-You-!!!
Garofano (concerned) : Don’t look at me like that honey! Aur, mujhe Violet keh ke pukaaro please~ Call me informally! Don’t worry! Tumhe kuch nahi hoga. I just want you to be silent.
Veer : W-When did you-???
Badle me Garofano bas muskurayi. Aur, Veer ko turant samajh aa gaya ki uske saath kya hua.
Pichle dwaar se bhaagte waqt jaise hi Garofano ne uski kalaayi thaami thi...!!!
Wahi woh waqt tha jab usne apni ek chhoti si needle uski kalaayi me ghop di thi.
Garofano (smiles) : Mein hamesha tab hamla karti hu jab mere shikaar ko iski sabse kam umeed hoti hai, Veer. Jab woh mujh par sabse zyada bharosa karte hai aur mujhse pyaar karte hai.
Veer : Y-You-!!!
Garofano : Paralysis toxin!!! Mera apna banaya gaya toxin hai. Chaah ke bhi tum ise neutralize nahi kar sakte. *smiles* After all, system ki shop me tumhe iske liye koi skill nahi milegi. Iska cure sirf mera hi anti-toxin hai.
Veer (frowns) : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Mujhe pata tha tum hi ho woh- Y-You were the only one I was yearning for, Veer. No!! My honey!!
Veer : ??
Garofano : Pehle mujhe shaq bhi tha. Kya tum woh insaan hoge bhi ya nahi? Mene itni umeed nahi rakhi thi tumse. P-Par- Tum meri umeedo ke vipreet hi nikle Veer. Tum itne imaandar, bhaavuk… Yaha tak ki itne bhole the ki system holders ki parvah kar baithe? Fufu~ Tum sach me kamaal ho. Aur, isliye mein jald se jald tumhari taraf khichti chali gayi.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mene pehle socha tha ki agar tum mere raaste me aaye, aur tum woh vyakti na nikle jaisa maine socha tha… Toh, mein apne raaste se tumhe hamesha hamesha ke liye alag kar dene waali thi. Of course, abhi bhi tum mera target ho. *smiles* Farq sirf itna hai ki iss baar mein tumhe apne tareeqe se apne paas rakhna chaahti hu.
Veer (frowns) : Wh-What-!!? What do you want-!!?
Garofano : Maine kaha na Veer!
Veer : ??
Garofano : I won’t let you get hurt anymore.
Itna bol woh Veer ko apni goad me uthaayi. Scene ekdum hi alag tha. Ek princess carry me aksar ek ladka ek ladki ko iss tarah uthaata tha par, yaha Garofano Veer ko iss tarah se uthaayi hui thi. Uske chehre se muskaan hatne ka naam nahi le rahi thi.
Veer ko thaame woh sakri galiyo ki gehrayiyo me chalti gayi. Ek sabse chhipe hue kone ko dhoondh usne dheere se Veer ko neeche baithaya.
Woh uski orr jhuki aur uske labo ke paas aayi.
Garofano (smiles) : You just have to wait here. Okay, honey? I’ll settle this quickly.
Aur, neeche jhuk ek jhatke me usne Veer ke honth apne hontho ki giraft me bhar liye.
“Nnnnn~”
Ek siski Garofano ke muh se nikli. Aur, tabhi-
*Ding*
[You have been rewarded 1000 Points.]
Veer ke mann me ek notification ki ghanti baj uthi. Veer, inn points ko enjoy karne ki sthiti me nahi tha. Parantu,
Garofano : Ahhh~!!!
Garofano jhatka lete hue Veer ke hontho se alag hui. Zaahir hai, notification use bhi praapt hua tha.
Garofano (blushes) : W-Wait-!! You get points for this too??? K-Kya aisa isliye hai kyuki hum dono system holders hai? M-My god-!!
Veer toh ye pehle se hi jaanta tha. Pari ne use bata ke rakha tha ki jitni badi hasti ladki hogi, jitni behtar woh hogi uss hisaab se system use ladki ke sang intimate hone par points dega. Ye pehli baar tha jab Veer ne kisi system holder ladki ke hontho ko chooma tha.
Aur, Garofano ka iska na pata hona saaf darshata tha ki woh iss baat se anibhigya tha. Jiska kaaran sirf ek hi tha~
Usne kabhi bhi kisi aur mard ke saath koi bhi intimate relationship nahi rakha tha. Zaahir tha ki woh iss nayi khoj se poori tarah hairan thi. Saath hi kuch excited bhi.
*Skrrrrrrrrrrr*
Agle hi pal usne Veer ki shirt ko pakad ke kheecha aur shirt beech se fatati chali gayi. Saari buttons toot ke bikhar gayi.
Garofano (leans further) : Th-Then kya hoga agar-!? *smiles* Agar hum aur aage badhe, honey???
Uska haath Veer ke nange seene par firta hua upar jaane laga. Veer ke badan par ruye khade ho gaye. Ek sihran uski poore shareer me fel gayi.
Par, punah qadmo ki awaaz ne Garofano ke mood ko kharab kar diya.
Garofano : Jab ye sab khatam ho jayega. Mein tumhe apne saath leke chalungi, Veer. Wait for me here~
Veer chhaya me bina kisi sahayta ke bas laita hua dekhta raha jab tak ki Garofano gali se baahar nahi nikal gayi.
Aur, use kuch pal baad turant hi baahar ki awazein spasht roop se sunayi dene lagi.
Ethan : Hahahaha! Dekho zara kaun aaya hai. Arre? Woh ladka kaha hai? Lagta hai tumko chorr ke darr ke bhaag gaya. Hmm?
Garofano : Bhaag gaya? Hmph! He never runs away. Balki, tumhe apne baare me socha chahiye.
Ethan : Kya bakwaas hai? Nahi! Tumse yaha baat karna bewakoofi hai. Jao pakdo use!!
Halaki, thodi derr ki khamoshi ke baad, kuch bhaari gad-gadahat zameen par goonj gayi. Jaise maano kayi insaan neeche zameen par gir gaye ho. Aur, fir kisi ki ek kamzor kaapti hui awaaz aayi-
“Y-Ye kaise ho sakta hai? Ye ek ladki???”
Ethan ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi. Woh dehshat me chillaya.
Ethan : Y-Ye-!? Ye kaise-!? Kaise sambhav hai?
Garofano : Maine tumhe waqai me halke me le liya tha Ethan. Mujhe nahi laga tha ki tumhari tarah ek pyaada mujhe itni pareshaniya dega.
Ethan : ???
Garofano : Tum aur tumhara bhai dono hi mere shikaar the. Choonki, tumhare zariye maine Mr. Nicholson ko marwa hi diya. Ab baari aati hai tumhari- Right? *smiles*
Ethan (shocked) : M-Mere se marwaya-!?? K-Kya matlab hai tumhara?
Garofano bas muskurayi.
Ethan (screams) : M-Matlab woh tum thi jisne ye afwaah felayi thi ki jaydaad ka batwara hone waala hai???
Garofano (smiles) : Lagta hai tum itne bhi bewaqoof nahi, Ethan!
Poori gali me ek shaanti chhaa gayi.
Aur, iske baad Veer ko ek aur shareer ke girne ki dhamak mehsoos hui. Chand seconds ke baad hi, Garofano dobaara uske saamne haazir thi. Uske hontho par muskaan wesi hi feli hui thi.
Veer (frowns) : T-Tum-!? Iska matlab tum?
Woh hasi. Usne Veer ko punah apni goad me uthaya jaise maano Veer uska chhota beta ho. Use pyaar se apni baaho me liye woh alley ke baahar nikalne lagi.
Garofano : Kya soch rahe ho, Veer? Kya kuch kehna nahi hai?
Veer (growls) : So, it was you-!???
Garofano (smiles) : Of course! Aur, kaun ho sakta hai? Charles Nicholson aur Ethan Nicholson dono hi mere shikaar the. Khaas kar Charles Nicholson!!
Garofano ne apne rang aise badle the jaise girgit badalti thi. Kaha woh 'Dad-Dad' ki ratt lagayi hui thi aur kaha ab woh ye besharmo ki tarah qubool kar rahi thi ki iske peeche uska hi haath tha.
Garofano (frowns) : Mere asli Mom-Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki laparwahi se hi maare gaye the Veer.
Veer : ???
Woh Veer ko baaho me liye aage badhti jaa rahi thi aur apni kahani sunani jaa rahi thi.
Garofano : Mere Mom Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki ek factory me kaam karte the. Factory me aag lagne se unn dono ki jaan chali gayi. Aur, iss haram-zaade ne apne staff ko marne diya tha.
Veer : ??
Veer ko samajh aaya. Iska matlab woh Ryongchon Disaster me Garofano ke maa baap ka marna? Maatra jhooth tha.
Garofano : Iske peeche tab koi gang padi hui thi. Building ki zyada tehqiqaat na ho isliye isne case close kar diya tha. Jitne staff ke log maare gaye, unke baare me koi sawaal na kare isliye sabko ghoos khila ke isne saara maamla rafa dafa karwa diya tha.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Dad? Kaisa Dad? Ye woh aadmi tha jisne baad me unhi mare logo ke parivaar ke anaath logo ke saath shoshan kiya tha. Aur, iska plan toh mujhe bhogna bhi tha. Of course, aisa maine kabhi hone nahi diya.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Khubsoorat hone ke naate Charles mujhe kaise bhi kar ke bhogna chahta tha. Isliye, mujhe apni beti bana ke apne sang le gaya. Aur, tabhi mujhe system bhi mil gaya. Jis cheez ki mujhe talash thi wo mujhe akhir mil hi gayi.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Charles ko apni baato me fusla ke dheere dheere mein uske nirnayo par haawi hone lagi. Mein use apne khud ke banaye gaye sedatives deti jis se woh mere niyantran me rehta tha. Uske mann me maine apni ek atoot chhavi bana li thi. Magar, adanga tha ye Ethan Nicholson.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : Ye China me rehta tha. Lekin, iski poori nazar jaydaad par thi. Ye apne bhai se aur mujhse bhi nafrat karta tha. Mein hi thi woh jisne jaydaad baatne ki afwah felayi thi. Yaha tak ki will ki baat bhi jhooth hai. Mujhe pata tha ki Ethan apne bhai aur fir mujhe maar ke jaydaad par haq jatayega. Isliye, maine afwah fela di ki batwara ho raha hai.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Jabki aisa kuch bhi nahi hone waala tha. Gusse me aake, Ethan ne woh chaal chal hi di jiski mein na jaane kitne samay se aasha kar rahi thi. Ethan ne apne hi bhai ko maar daala. Aur, isi ke saath mera badla bhi poora ho chuka tha. Jaise jaise maine pyaade baithaaye the sabhi ne bilkul wesa hi kaam kiya tha.
Veer : ??
Garofano : Ab baaki tha toh sirf Ethan ke crime ke saboot police ko dena, par tabhi Renshu ne apni taang ada di.
Veer : P-Poison???
Garofano : Huh? Ohh! Of course body me paaya gaya poison mera hi tha. Renshu sach keh raha tha. *smiles* Maine Charles ki body me sui bhi ghopi thi aur poison bhi inject kiya tha. You know? Just to make sure he was dead. Lekin, woh pehle hi adhmara ho chuka tha. Ethan ke aadmiyo ne use pehle hi maar diya tha. I mean... Almost...! Fufu~
Veer (frowns) : A-Alibi-!?
Garofano : Hmm? Ohh? You mean agar mein apni workshop se bahar nahi nikli thi to crime location par pahuch ke woh needle kaise ghusedi? Right? Oh Veer! I'm a system owner. Kya ek system owner darwaze se hi aa jaa sakta hai? I jumped from the terrace. Fufu~
Veer ko ab sab samajh aa raha tha. Sab kuch Garofano ka hi plan tha. Yaha tak ki woh khud ek besahara naari ka vesh-bhusha banaaye khud ko nirdosh jataate hue inn sab ke peeche asli hatyari thi.
Garofano Veer ko car ki taraf le gayi. Veer ne dekha ki kaise sabhi ke sabhi log neeche sadak par behosh pade hue the.
*Click*
Darwaza khol back seat par Garofano ne bade hi komalta se Veer ko litaaya. Veer ka sarr car ke khule darwaze ki taraf tha jaha Garofano khadi hui thi.
Woh jhuki aur uske chehre ko pakad uske nazdeek aayi.
Garofano : But as I said~ I won't let anyone harm you!
Veer : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Iss tarah se mat dekho Veer. Dil dukhta hai. Charles ke saath wahi hua jo wo deserve karta tha. Also, Ethan ko mein nahi dekhungi. Use to police dekh legi. Sab kuch maine audio video sab record kar rakha hai. I have a hidden camera here~
Usne apne shrug ki ek badi si kaali button ki orr ishara karte hue kaha.
Woh muskurate hue jhuki, Veer ke hontho ko punah choomne ke liye par tabhi-
'Huh!!!???'
*Gwakh*
Ek mazboot haath ne uske gale ko daboch liya. Garofano ke hosh udd chuke the. Woh bhaybheet hote hue neeche Veer ko dekhi, jo uske gale ko jakde hue tha.
P-Par ye kaise? Veer hilne dulne ki haalat me nahi tha. Uska paralysis toxin kam se kam 3 ghante tak asardar rehta tha. Aur, toh aur system ki shop me bhi iska koi upaay nahi tha.
Iska upaay ya to yahi tha ki 3 ghante tak intezar kiya jaaye ya fir anti-paralysis toxin ka istemal kiya jaaye jiski vidhi sirf aur sirf uske hi paas thi.
Garofano ke paseene chooth rahe the. Veer ke chehre par koi bhaav nahi the. Aur, fir usne bolna shuru kiya.
Garofano : V-Veer-!? T-Tum-!?
Veer : Mein jaanta tha shuru se hi ki ye sab tumhara dhong tha.
Garofano : Ahh!??
Veer : Kyuki, poison sirf tumhare aur Renshu ke paas tha. Renshu khud hi body me poison dalwa ke mujhe autopsy ki report nahi bhejega. Isme koi shaq nahi tha ki body me poison tha. Aur woh poison do hi logo se aa sakta tha. Renshu and you!!!
Garofano : Ughh! Th-That's-!
Veer : Erica aur Renshu ka meri itni madad karna wahi dusri orr tumhara mere nazdeek aana, khul ke saari details bhi na dena aur sach ko chhipana. I already saw through it.
Garofano : T-To s-say such a thing-
Veer (smiles) : I was just seeing how far you will go.
Garofano (frowns) : K-Kaise-!? I knew I-
Veer (smiles) : You pricked me? Are you sure? *grins* Kya waqai tumhari sui meri kalaayi me dhasi thi?
Garofano : Urggh!!
Gale par Veer ki pakad mazboot ho rahi thi. Par, Garofano bas uski kalaayi ko thaami thi. Virodh nahi kar rahi thi.
Garofano : I-I... I did-!!
Veer ne tabhi apni shirt ki wrist ki button kholi aur usme se ek eraser jaisa kuch baahar nikal ke gira, jise dekh Garofano ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi.
Veer : Tumhari needle meri skin me nahi iss kneadable rubber eraser me ghusi thi. And you thought- *grins*
Paansa palat chuka tha. Jaha pehle Garofano poori tarah se Veer par haawi thi aur soch rahi thi ki sab kuch uske plan ke hisaab se hi gaya parantu, ab drishya ekdum ulta tha. Ab woh khud Veer ke qabze me thi.
Garofano (shocked) : Wh-When did you-!?
Veer (smiles) : You don't need to know that.
Veer ne agle hi shan use ek baar me chorr diya. Garofano apne gale ko pakadte hue peeche hui aur lambi lambi saansein lene lagi. Veer abhi bhi usi tarah araam se car me leta hua tha aur iss baar wo tha jo muskura ke use dekh raha tha.
Garofano : T-Tumbe mujhe... Yuhi chorr diya?
Veer (smiles) : I believe you!
Garofano : Huh?
Veer : Because I know you won't hurt me.
Badle me woh bhi muskurayi. Punah uski orr aage aayi. Veer shan bhar ke liye sachet hua par jab uske tapte garam honth aake Veer ke hontho par lage toh woh kuch kehne ki haalat me hi na raha.
*Kiss*
Ek chhoti si hi kiss thi. Khud ko dur ko Garofano muskurayi. Itna sab hone ke baad bhi woh Veer ko kiss karne se peeche nahi hatt rahi thi. Chand pal pehle hi Veer ne uske gale ko jakad rakha tha.
Garofano : Tumhe yaha se jaana chahiye Veer. Mujhe ye sab settle karne me ek din kam se kam lagega hi lagega. Zyada bhi lag sakta hai. Toh mein mine ke matter ke liye tumhare saath nahi aa paungi. I'm sorry. But tum jaante ho ki mujh par bhi sanctions lage hai. Inn dino mein busy rehne waali hu.
Veer : Got it!!
Woh tabhi daud ke apni workshop me gayi aur ek packet baahar leke aayi.
Veer : What's this?
Garofano (smiles) : It's a shirt! Meri taraf se. Tumhare liye. It's all black!!!
Veer : Ohh? Thanks, I guess?
Garofano uski collor pakad use kheench ke uske kaan ko apne labo tak laayi aur fir haule se boli,
Garofano : Mine ke matter ke liye, Renshu tumhare saamne do prastaav rakhega Veer. Pehla ki tribal logo ki territory me jaana aur ladna. Aur, dusra ki seedha Legion ke Head Jaw Long ke paas jaana aur usko khatam karna.
Veer : ???
Garofano : And if you're smart enough. Then, you know what to choose right? Galti se bhi Jaw Long se ladne ke liye khud ko aage mat karna. Your safety is important. Mein aas paas nahi rahungi, so I won't be able to help you out.
Veer : I know what to do. Don't worry!
Garofano (frowns) : Veer please~!!! Jaw Long se ladne tum nahi jaoge. Kya tum khud ki safety ke baare me nahi soch sakte? Tumhari family bhi hai. Don't take risks.
Veer : I know!
Garofano (nods) : Mein jald hi aaungi. Till then... Take care...!
Woh Veer ke gaal par haath ferr waha se nikal gayi. Zaahir hai usne police ko call kar diya tha. Aur, sab kuch police ko saupne waali thi. Ethan ab chaah ke bhi iss se baahar nahi aa sakta tha.
Toh wahi Veer Renshu ki car leke wapas uske ghar ke liye nikal chuka tha.
Car me hi uske mission ki notification uske dimag me goonj chuki thi.
*Ding*
['Mission : Unmask the culprit' has been completed.]
[You have been rewarded 3000 points.]
Veer ne case ko handle karne se pehle hi Intelligence 10 points se badha liya tha. Woh jaanta tha ki yaha pe dimaag ke ghode daudaane ki zaroorat thi. Aur, woh extra 10 intelligence ne hi aaj use bacha liya tha.
Woh aage aane waale dino ke baare me sochta hua gaadi sarpat raaste par daudata chala gaya.
***
Mumbai...
Kaera's home...
Night ~ 10:12 PM
Ghar me jhunjhlate hue aaj pehli baar Kaera apne kamre me aayi. Uske iss ravaiyye se ghar me maujood kaam karne waala saara staff hairaan tha.
Aisa aam taur par nahi hota tha. Kabhi kabhi hi woh log Miss Kaera ko gusse me dekh paate the.
Julia jo ki Kaera ke kamre me saaf safaayi hi kar rahi thi, apni Miss ko gusse me aate dekh thodi aashcharya me reh gayi.
Usne dekha ki peeche peeche Karan bhi aaya hua tha.
Julia : Eh!??
Kaera aate hi bistar par baith gayi. Aur, apni aankhein band kar na jaane kin vicharo me leen ho gayi.
Julia : I-Is something the matter? Master Karan?
Karan : A-Actually, hua ye ki... Jis company se hamari deal hone waali thi. Woh company achanak hi Elite Motors se deal kar li. Aur, Elite Motors... You know very well...! Sonia di-!!!
Julia : Ahh! I see!
Karan : Dii ka kehna hai ki Ruchika dii ne kuch gadbad kar di. Kyuki, Ruchika dii ne jaisa bataya tha aur jaisa plan kiya tha wesa kuch hua nahi. Balki, Elite Motors ne woh sab pehle hi kar diya tha. Mujhe nahi pata ki unn logo ne ye kaise kiya. Kaise deal dii ke haatho se leli... But, kuch gadbad hamari hi taraf se hui hai, I think.
Julia : I see!
Karan : Dii ka dhyaan rakhna Julia please. She's mad right now.
Julia (smiles) : Don't worry Master Karan.
Karan itna bol waha se nikal gaya. Parantu, Kaera ka mood aise hi sahi nahi hone waala tha. Kabhi aisa nahi hua tha. Upar se Sonia-!!!!
Kaera : Where's Veer Julia?
Veer ki jankari ikhatta karne ka kaam Kaera ne Julia ko hi saupa tha. Julia sirf maid nahi thi. Uske neeche bhi maids thi jo uske liye kaam karti thi. Woh maids jo ghar se leke baahar ke kaamo me bhi maahir thi.
Julia : You keep pushing him away. Why would he care?
Kaera : Wh-What!??? A-Aisa kab hua? Maine kab use khud se dur kiya?
Julia : When was the last time you had a beautiful chat with him?
Kaera : I-
Woh maun reh gayi. Use waqai yaad nahi tha ki akhiri baar Veer ke sang baith ke usne kab baat-cheet ki thi.
Julia : I keep telling you, young miss!
Kaera (glances) : Huh?
Julia : Do you know what's the meaning of a 'good woman'?
Kaera : A good woman?
Julia : A good woman never points out the unnecessary flaws of her partner. A woman's role is to support her man.
Kaera : Huh?
Julia : You are someone who can make Young Master Veer feel like a king just by being beside him. That's what a good woman does. She can boost the confidence of her man no matter what the situation remains.
Kaera : M-Mein jaanti hu but-
Julia : A good woman will never say 'You are lucky to have me.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Mein aisi nahi hu Julia. H-How can I-!?
Julia : A good woman will never say 'Earn more money.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Maine kab?
Julia : You did it indirectly. Weren't you the one who told me you want Young Master Veer to become more rich in order to have you?
Kaera : Ahh-! N-No-! You misunderstood Julia!
Julia : And lastly...
Kaera : Huh???
Julia : A good woman is never too busy for her partner. When she's asking the whereabouts of her partner from her maid...! That explains everything!
Kaera (frowns) : J-Julia-!!!
Kaera pehle se hi pareshan thi. Upar se Julia ne uske dil par ghaat aur pahucha di thi. Kintu, Julia ne jo kuch bhi kaha tha woh apne dil se aur sach hi kaha tha.
Julia Kaera ko akela chhor baahar jaane lagi par jaate jaate woh darwaze ki dehleez par ruki,
Julia : Please! Take down your mask, young miss. You don't need any mask in front of Young Master Veer.
Kaera : I-
Julia : This time you lost just the deal. If you keep behaving like this... You might lose Young Master Veer himself.
Kaera : Huh!????
Aur, itna bol Julia waha se ravana ho gayi. Reh gayi toh bas Kaera aur uski aankhon se behte aasu.

Zabardast updateUpdate - 173 ~ Unmasked
[Note : Update bada hai toh itminaan se padhna.]
Ab tak...
Tej (nods) : Hmm! Kuch pata nahi lag paa raha ki woh kaha gaya hai. India se baahar hai. Bas keh deta hai ki business ke silsile me baahar aaya hu. Par- par mujhe lagta hai ki woh humse kuch chhipa raha hai Mom. Iss baar mein use chorrne waali nahi hu. Mein use itni asaani se maaf nahi karungi. Aur, aap bhi mujhe kuch nahi bolengi.
Bhavna ki bauhe kasi hui thi. Uska laadla bina bataaye ghar se chala gaya? Kaha gaya hoga bhala? Woh ek chintan me doob gayi.
Ab aage...
Garofano riha ho chuki thi. Magar, sab kuch samapt nahi hua tha. Case abhi bhi ruka hua tha aur hatyara abhi bhi salaakho ke peeche nahi tha.
Case behad hi pecheeda tha. Kintu, Veer ne ise bhaanp liya tha ki iski gathaane kis tarah bandhi hui thi.
Ghatnao ko agar kram anusar lagaya jaaye toh woh kuch iss prakar se ghatit hui thi.
Mr. Nicholson ka apni beti ke sang China aana.
Woh jaydad ka batwaara kar rahe hai aur apne chhote bhai se rishte naate tod dena chaahte hai, isliye yaha aaye hai.
Woh apni beti Violet ki personal workshop par jaate hai.
Unka workshop se nikalna aur fir achanak se gayab ho jaana.
Unki laash ek khandahar me praapt hona jo ki sheher se kaafi duri par tha.
Ye tha ghatnakram hatya ke poorv se leke hatya tak ka. Parantu, asli gutthi toh yaha se aarambh hui thi. Jaha police aake apni investigation par poornviram laga chuki thi toh wahi Veer ke liye ab ye investigation shuru hui thi. Kyuki, yahi se system owners aur unke kathan shaamil ho chuke the.
Renshu ka kehna tha ki mrat shareer me pehle se hi zeher paaya gaya tha. Hospital waalo ne autopsy ki report me bhi yahi bataya tha. Aur, use yakeen hai ki yeh Garofano ka hi kaam tha.
Kintu, Garofano saboot mita ke chali gayi thi. Isliye, Renshu ne Garofano ki tohfe me di hui woh needles dobara se laash par Erica ke dwara wahi chhudhwa di. Upar se ek needle uski workshop me bhi Erica chupke se rakh aayi. Taaki, police crime location par mile saboot ko workshop me mile saboot se match kar sake. Aur, Garofano ko jail bhej sake.
Renshu ki nazro me Garofano hi hatyari thi.
Magar, dusri orr Garofano ye qubool karne ko taiyaar nahi thi. Uske kathan ke anusar woh nirdosh thi. Aur, ye sab Renshu dwara use fasaane ke liye kiya gaya tha.
Saare saboot uske khilaaf the. Uske paas apni begunahi saabit karne ke liye kuch nahi tha. Uska kehna yahi tha ki usne apne pita ki hatya nahi ki hai. Usne Renshu ke upar ilzaam zaroor lagaya tha. Parantu, ilzaam ye lagaya tha ki Renshu use fasa raha hai. Ye nahi lagaya ki Renshu ne uske pita ko maara hai.
Ye baat Veer ke dimaag me baith chuki thi. Woh chaahti toh dosh Renshu par daal sakti thi jaise usne uss par daala tha. Veer ne jab uss se iska kaaran pucha tha toh usne bas yahi jawaab diya tha ~
"Maine Dad ko nahi maara hai, Veer! Why would I? Aur, mein ye kaise keh du ki Renshu ne unhe maara hai? Mein itna jaanti hu ki usne mujhe fasaya hai. Dad ko kisne maara, ye main nahi jaanti. Toh aise me dosh kaise daal sakti hu kisi par?"
"What about the past illustration?"
"Agar, insaan marrne se pehle apne hosh kho de toh hum uske past me ye nahi dekh sakte ki uske baad uske saath kya hua. Zaahir hai behoshi me mere Dad ko maara gaya hoga. Past mein chaah ke bhi poora nahi dekh paayi."
Yaha Veer ko system ki ek nayi jankari haath lagi thi. Agar, marrne waala vyakti apni maut ke chand pal pehle hi behosh ho jaaye toh use toh pata hi nahi chalega ki uske saath kya hua.
Aise me system uska past poorn roop se nahi dikha payega. Uski maut kisne ki ye chhip ke reh jayega.
Garofano ke iss khathan me kitni sachayi thi ye Veer nahi jaanta tha. Magar, kabhi na kabhi woh ise aazma ke dekh hi sakta tha. Usne punah apne prashn rakhe~
"Tumne kuch toh dekha hoga? Kaun the woh log? Kitne log the?"
"Yes!!! Kayi saare log the. Dad meri workshop se jab nikle the toh unn logo ne dad ko follow karna shuru kar diya tha. Uske baad woh unhe gher ke uss location par le gaye. Aur, fir...!"
"Kuch aur detail?"
"Sirf itna hi pata chala ki kuch aadmi the aur sabhi muh par kapda baandhe hue the."
"Isliye, tum Renshu par blame nahi daal rahi?"
"Of course! Mujhe nahi pata woh uske aadmi the ya kisi aur ke. Aise me mein kisi par bhi ungli nahi utha sakti Veer."
Inhi kuch baato ke chalte Veer kaafi kuch iss case ko samajh chuka tha. Gunde zaroor Ethan Nicholson ke the. Erica jo report laayi thi usme saaf saaf ye zahir tha ki haal hi me Ethan ne underworld gangs se contact kiya hai.
Garofano ka riha hona bhi itna saral nahi tha. Woh pehle hi jail se bhaag chuki thi. Isliye, uss par bhi kanoon todne ke kuch sanctions lage the.
Magar, woh filhal ke liye jail se chooth chuki thi. Needles par Garofano ke koi bhi fingerprints nahi paaye gaye the. Body par bhi Garofano ka koi fingerprint maujood nahi tha. Yaha tak ki uski odour bhi crime spot par K-9 unit bhaanp nahi paaye the.
Parantu, sabse bada saboot jiski wajah se Garofano choothi woh tha uski workshop ka CCTV footage.
Mr. Charles Nicholson apni beti ke sang uski workshop me aaye the. CCTV me sab qaid hua tha. Aur, kuch derr baad Mr. Nicholson workshop se nikal gaye. Ghar se baahar nikalne ke do raaste the. Aage se aur peeche se. Aur, dono hi taraf CCTV maujood the. Magar, dono hi CCTV me Garofano apni workshop se nikalti hui dikhayi nahi di.
Iska matlab saaf tha ki Garofano ki alibi confirm ho chuki thi. Jiss waqt Mr. Nicholson baahar khandhar me mrat paaye gaye the. Uss waqt Garofano apni workshop me hi thi. Woh workshop se baahar nikli hi nahi thi.
Inn tamaam sabooto ki wajah se aur FBCC ke involvement ke kaaran, China ke court ko apna faisla turant ke turant badalna pada. Ab Ethan Nicholson tha jise sawaalo ke uttar dene the.
Lag-bhag 2 din me hi Veer ne saara case suljha diya tha. Raat ke 10 baj rahe the aur woh ab Renshu se mine ke silsile me baat karne hi jaa raha tha jab-
*Ding*
[Mission : Unmask the culprit.
Rewards : ???? Points.
Time Limit : 8 hours.
Mission Failure Penalty : No Penalty.]
'What!!??'
Veer stabdh tha. Khush bhi tha ki itne samay baad akhir kaar use mission praapt hua magar, mission iss waqt milna jab sab kuch saamne hi tha. Ye baat koi sense nahi bana rahi thi.
Mission fail hone ki koi penalty nahi thi ye dekh kar usne ek rahat ki saans li. Ye points uske hi the.
Woh abhi kuch aur sochta ki itne me uske samaksh Garofano aake khadi ho gayi.
Garofano : Veer!!!
Veer : Hmm?
Garofano : Mein ab detention me nahi hu. Toh... Kya tum mere saath meri workshop chaloge?
Veer : Ohh? Workshop ki key police waalo ne tumhe wapas dedi?
Garofano (smiles) : Mujhe kaise de sakte hai? Mein abhi bhi bhaagi hui qaidi hu unki nazro me. Divya aur hamare lawyer ko di gayi thi key. Maine Divya se leli hai. So? Kya tum chaloge?
Veer : Kuch zaroori kaam hai?
Garofano (nods) : Hmm-Mmm~! Choonki, promise ke anusar ab mine ke silsile me mein yaha busy hone waali hu toh kuch important cheezein waha se uthaani thi.
Veer : Ohh! Sure! Why not?
Garofano : Really?
Veer : Of course!
Garofano (smiles) : Thank you!
Woh muskurati hui uska haath pakad use kheechte hue baahar ko le jaane lagi.
Erica aur Renshu dono saath me hi wahi baithe the jis kamre se hoke Garofano aur Veer guzar rahe the.
Erica : Tumhari fir koi nayi chaal hai kya?
Garofano : Mein Veer ko apni workshop leke jaa rahi hu. Mujhe waha se kuch zaroori samaan uthana hai. Car ki key chahiye mujhe.
Erica : Hum koi car ki chaavi tumhe nahi-
Renshu (nods) : Theek hai!
Erica : Wh-Whattt? Dad???
Renshu : Chaavi dedo Erica!!!
Iss baar bhi harr baar ki tarah ulta hi hua. Jab jab wo kuch karne jaati, uske Dad uss se vipreet nirnay suna dete the.
Woh daant meeste hue uthi aur chaavi ko usne be-mann se Garofano ki orr fek diya. Divya apne escort me sang baaki formalities ko poora karne me lagi hui thi toh woh iss waqt yaha nahi thi.
Ye mauka Veer ke liye sahi tha.
Aur, dono Veer Garofano Renshu ke ghar se ravana hoke workshop ki orr chal diye.
***
*Kuch derr baad*
Woh dono workshop pahuch chuke the. Sheher se ye workshop thodi duri par thi. Garofano ka kehna tha ki woh zyada shor waali jagahe pasand nahi karti thi, isliye iss jagah ko usne apni workshop ke liye chuna tha. Jagah buri nahi thi. Bas, thodi sunsaan thi. Aas paas ghar nahi the, showrooms, cafes bas yahi sab the jo lights se raushan ho rakhe the.
Unhe yaha aane me hi lagbhag 2 ghanta lag chuka tha. Raat ke 12 baj rahe the aur sabhi apne apne vyapaar ki dukaano ko band kar apne ghar jaa chuke the.
Garofano : Aao Veer! Please~
*Click*
Garofano ne ek lambe se darwaaze ka lock khola aur Veer ko andar ki orr le gayi. Usne ek switch ghumaya aur garm peeli roshni ne kamre ke samaan ko raushan kar diya. Bhale hi itne dino se ghar band hone ke kaaran dhool ki ek patli parat jagah jagah jama ho gayi thi par fir bhi Veer mehsoos kar sakta tha ki ghar mool roop se kitna sundar aur saath hi saath aramdayak tha.
Kayi jagah Garofano ke haath se banaaye kapde mannequins par tange hue the, saath hi decorations jo kamre ki saaj-sajja ko aur bhi nikhaar rahe the.
Veer : Y-Ye sab-!? Ye sab tumne banaya hai?
Wese toh usne pehle hi check kar ke ye pata laga liya tha parantu, fir bhi woh Garofano ke muh se sunn’na chaahta tha.
Garofano : Haan! Ye sab abhi bhi poori tarah se taiyaar nahi hai.
Usne aage badh wahi rakhe mannequin par lipti ek dress ko dheere se sehla kar, ek aah bharte hue kaha.
Garofano : Well? Jisne ye order diya tha, woh toh ab ise kabhi bhi nahi pehen sakta.
Uska ishaara mannequin par tange ek coat ki taraf tha. Veer samajh gaya. Shayad Garofano ke Dad apne liye iss coat ka order deke gaye the. Kintu, use pehen'ne se pehle hi woh chal base.
Garofano ki nazre wahi rakhe ek flower vase par gayi.
Garofano : Itne dino baad lauti hu ki phool bhi murjha gaye hai.
Veer : It’s okay! Taaza phulo se hum inhe badal denge. *smiles*
Garofano (smiles) : Hmm! Mein washroom se aati hu. Feel free to look around Veer~
Uske jaate hi Veer kuch qadam aage badh wahi kamre me tehelne laga. Mannequins ko dekhte hue woh dresses ko bhi parakh raha tha. Na jaane udhar Mumbai me Louis aur baaki sabhi Yarnia ko lekar kitna aage badhe honge? Uske WhatsApp par na jaane kitne saare messages dale hue the. Jinme se sabse zyada Tej aur Kavya ke hi the.
Kintu, Veer ke paas filhal kisi ko bhi reply dene ka samay nahi tha. Woh jaanta tha ki agar usne reply diya toh aur 100 sawaal uske sarr aa jayenge.
Abhi woh tehel hi raha tha jab uske kaan achanak hi kuch halchal sunn khade ho gaye. Woh turant hi ek deewaar ke peeche chhip gaya aur tabhi-
*BAAAAANNNGGGG*
Tezz awaaz ke saath ghar ke saamne ka darwaaza dhadalle se achanak khul gaya. Kayi saare log haatho me hathiyaar liye aa dhamke. Aur, unke saamne ek patla sa vyakti tha jo shayad inn aadmiyo ka boss prateet ho raha tha.
Aadmi : Aapko pakka yakeen hai na Mr. Nicholson? Ki woh yahi hai?
Ethan Nicholson : Haan Haan! Yahi woh ghar hai! Hmph! Mere khabri ne mujhe khabar di hai ki usne inn logo ko andar jaate dekha hai. Uske saath koi- koi aur bhi hai. Dhundho unhe jaldi!
Veer ko turant ke turant hi samajh aa gaya ki bhala iss waqt Mr. Nicholson ka ye chhota bhai yaha kyu aaya hua tha. Woh ek aise mauqe ki talaash kar raha tha jaha woh uske aur Garofano ke khilaaf qadam utha sake.
Veer chaahta toh aage badh unhe maar maar ke unki khatiya khadi kar deta. Parantu, yaha dimaag se chalne ki zaroorat thi. Agar woh baahar nikal unn sab se ladta toh zaahir hai ki unme se koi bhi uska saamna nahi kar paata.
Par, unki dhulayi karne ke baad kya? Veer unki jaan nahi le sakta tha aur na hi lena chahta tha. Aise me agar woh firse kahi court chale gaye ya unhone maar peet ka evidence pesh kar diya, toh ye case aur badh jaane waala tha.
Aur, dusra kaaran jo use rok raha tha woh ye ki Mr. Nicholson ka chhota bhai Garofano ka ek prakaar se relative hi tha. Muh bola hi sahi par rishtedaar toh lagta hi tha. Yaha woh bina Garofano ki anumati ke koi action nahi lena chahta tha. Dekhne se lag raha tha shayad Ethan Nicholson bail par tha.
Woh abhi paristithi se nikalne ke baare me soch hi raha tha jab achanak do narm thande haath uski gardan aur gaalo ko sehlate hue uske muh par aaye aur use dhak liye.
Veer : !!??
Garofano : Shhhh!!! Mein hu Veer~
Woh peeche se uss se aake lipat gayi. Uske baalo se aati anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me pravesh ki. Garofano ke dil ki dhadkan use apni peeth par mehsoos ho rahi thi. Veer ne use apni gardan mod ke dekh ek haami bhari. Uski nazre jaise puch rahi thi ki aage kya karna hai?
Garofano : Ek peeche ka darwaza bhi hai. Hum waha se nikal sakte hai. Aao mere saath-! Inse bhidna theek nahi. Inke khilaf pehle saboot ikhatta karna hoga.
Veer ne use pal bhar ke liye dekha. Jaise kehna chaah raha ho ki kya waqai hum system owners inn aam aadmiyo se darr kar bhaag rahe hai?
Aur, Garofano ne bhi jaise uske mann ki baat padh li, isliye woh turant hi haule se boli.
Garofano : Hum darr ke nahi bhaag rahe, Veer. Par, harr baar taqat nahi dikhayi jaati. Come!
Woh Veer ko leke peeche ke darwaaze ki orr badhi. Uski awaaz behad hi shaant thi jaise ki woh achanak hue iss hamle se zara bhi vichlit nahi thi. Ye jaante hue bhi ki uske Dad ke sage chhote bhai hi inn sab ke peeche the.
Veer ko pata hi nahi chala ki Garofano uske itna qareeb akhir kaise aa gayi thi? Uske mann me ek ajeeb si anubhooti jaagi. Lekin, sochne ka samay nahi tha.
Dead Silence!! Yahi woh skill thi. Pehli baar jab woh uss se mila tha tab bhi Garofano ne Dead Silence ka prayog kiya tha. Veer ko ye yaad tha.
‘Such a deadly skill! I’m jealous!’
[Indeed.]
Aadmiyo ki nazro se bachte hue woh dono hi tamaam samaano ki aadh me pichhle dwaar tak pahuch gaye.
Garofano : Yahi hai gate peeche ka. Yaha se hum-
*BAAAAAANNNNGGGGG*
Woh bolti ki iske pehle hi ek bullet tezi se Garofano ke perr par lagne ko aayi magar-
*Swishhhh*
Woh ek jhatke me bagal ko ho gayi. Peeche ke gate par bhi kuch aadmi aa chuke the. Shayad woh sabhi poori planning se aaye the.
Ethan Nicholson (shouts) : Violet!!! Dhokebaaz aurat….!!! Bhaagne ki firaaq me thi tum? Hai na? Hahaha! Dusro se kaam nikalwane me tumhara koi jawab nahi. Ye ladka…! Zaroor, tum hi ho woh jisne ye case apne haath me liya, hai na?
Garofano : Mr. Ethan? No!!! Ethan!!! Tumne hi mere Dad ko maara hai. Aur, mein chup nahi baithne waali.
Ethan : Tchhh!!! Agar, tumhare bagal se khada woh kameena mere raaste me na aaya hota toh mein kab ka qamyab ho gaya hota. Yaha tak ki will ki saari property mere naam ho gayi hoti. Lekin, sirf iski wajah se… sirf iski wajah se… Mujhe jail jaana pada. Woh toh bhala ho ki police ko mere khilaaf thos saboot nahi mil paaya. Aur, shukriya mere lawyer ka jiski wajah se mujhe do din ki bail mil gayi. Ab sab kuch mere hisaab se hi chalega…!
Garofano : …!?
Ethan : Kya saboot dilwaya tha tumne? Haha? Apni alibi ka? Woh main darwaze par laga CCTV aur uski recording na? Maine woh CCTV uda diya hai. Hahahaha! Aur, ye raha tumhara dusra CCTV...!
*BANG*
Usne pichle darwaaze par lage CCTV ki taraf apni bandook se nishana laga ke fire kiya aur dusre CCTV ke bhi chithde udd gaye.
Ethan : Hahahaha!!! Ab yaha kya hua, kaise hua, kisi ko kuch nahi pata chalega.
Garofano : To think that... Mere Dad ko tumne maara...! Tumne-!!!
Ethan (screams) : Ye sab tumhari wajah se hua hai. Sab tumhari galti hai.
Veer : Shut up!
Ethan : H-Huh-!?
Veer : Tum lucky the jo uss waqt Violet ko koi aur fasaana chaahta tha. Apne bade bhai ko tumne pehle hi maar diya tha. Ye tumhari kismat thi jo waha par Violet ke khilaaf saboot koi aur chorr gaya. Tum darre hue the. Tumhe lag raha tha ki body ko tumne thikaane nahi lagaaya. Tum kaise bach paoge? Tabhi, tumhe khabar mili ki Violet ke khilaaf murder scene par saboot milne ki wajah se use arrest kar liya gaya hai. Aur, tab tumhari khushi ka koi thikaana nahi tha. Hai na? Tum ye mauka apne haath se nahi jaane dena chaahte the. Right?
Ethan (screams) : Sh-Shut upppp!!!! You bastard!!!!
Veer ki ek ek baat khanjar ki tarah Ethan ke shareer me ghup rahi thi. Harr baat jaise sach prateet ho rahi thi. Ethan gusse se jhunjhlaya hua tha. Uska poora badan krodh me kaanp raha tha.
Baat sach thi ki woh body ko samay par thikane nahi lagwa paaya tha. Kyuki, usi waqt waha kisi ke aane ki aahat paake uske aadmi waha se bhaag gaye the.
Use laga tha ki woh ab gaya. Ab woh fass jayega. Kintu, agle hi din Garofano ke khilaf police ne crime sthal par saboot dhoondh nikaale the. Woh jaan chuka tha ki uss waqt jo log aaye the woh zaroor wahi log honge jinhone Garofano ke khilaf waha saboot chorre honge.
Zaahir hai, woh shaks Erica hi thi.
Veer : Par, sach chhipaya nahi jaa sakta. Tumne socha ki iss se accha mauka Violet ko fasaane ka nahi milega. Aur, isliye tum underground ho gaye. Tumne turant hi iss case ko proceed karwaya jisme minimum se minimum investigation ki gayi. Of course, tumhari kahani ke hisaab se tum apne conclusion par pahuch hi gaye the.
Ethan : H-Huh!?
Veer (grins) : Jab tak mein iss kahani me nahi aaya tha!!!
Ethan : Y-You-!!!! *shouts* You bastard!!! M-Mein tumhe dikhaata hu…! Jao! Unn dono ko pakad ke mere paas lao. Mujhe wo dono zinda chahiye!!!
Usne apne haath se ishara kiya aur ek ke baad ek gunde Veer aur Garofano ki taraf badhne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Ding*
[Beowulf's Blessings has been activated.]
Ek gunde ne Veer ke chehre ki taraf jaise hi ek pipe ghumaya, Veer ne baaju hote hi badi hi saralta se use dodge kar liya.
Veer ko achanak iss tarah hamla dodge karte dekh gunde aapas me chaunke par fir gambheer hote hue dobara vaar karne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
Magar, harr prayas vifal. Veer ne mauka dekha aur turant hi Garofano ko darwaaze ke baahar dhakela.
Turant ke turant wo khud bhi nikla par tabhi-
*Bang*
Ethan ki bullet uski baah ko graze karte hue nikal gayi. Bullet uske haath ko kharochte hue gayi thi. Khoon behna shuru ho chuka tha.
Garofano (concerned) : Veeeerrr???
Veer : Don't worry!!! Quick!!!
Garofano : I know!!!
Garofano ne Veer ki kalaayi thaami, use dekha. Aur, tezi ke saath waha se bhaagi. Ghar se lagi hui kayi saari alleys bani hui thi. Unhi me se ek alley me woh Veer ko leke uske sang andar ghus gayi.
Ethan (screams) : Madarchodo-!!! Pakdo unhe-!!!
Veer ko unke qadmo ki awaaz sunayi de rahi thi. Par, woh sab ke sab clueless idhar se udhar bhatak rahe the. Jab qadmo ki awaaz poori tarah se band ho gayi, toh Veer ne Beowulf ko band kar diya.
Veer : Kya soch ke woh yaha aaya tha?
Garofano : Socha hoga ki kuch gundo ke lekar jaunga toh ye amla naari kya hi mera kuch bigaad payegi.
Veer : Uss bechare ko nahi pata tha ki hum system owners hai. Too bad!!
Garofano chalte hue uske nazdeek aayi aur chintit nazro se woh uske haath ko dekhi jaha se khoon abhi bhi tapak raha tha. Use koi zyada chot nahi aayi thi. Kuch hi ghanto me ye chot poori tarah se theek ho jaane wali thi. Ye baat Garofano khud bhi jaanti thi. Magar, uske bawajood woh chinta vyakt kar rahi thi. Kahi na kahi use khushi thi ki Veer use bachaane ke liye aage aaya. Ye jaante hue bhi ki woh khud ek system owner thi. Toh kahi use gham bhi tha Veer ki abhi ki haalat dekh ke.
Garofano : Mujhe dekhne do!
Veer : What?? Y-Ye? Don’t worry! Ye theek ho jayega!!
Garofano ne bina uski baat maane hi ek jhatke me uski aasteen faad ke alag kar di.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mein jaanti hu ki ye tumhari liye maamuli chot hai. P-Par- Par, mere liye nahi hai.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : I’m sorry! Na mein tumhe yaha laati, aur na hi ye sab kuch hota.
Veer : Pagal ho kya? Ye kuch bhi nahi hai! Don’t overreact! Hume thodi pata tha ki woh Ethan iss tarah ki tactic khel jayega. Now that I see it. He’s so dumb. Agar, Renshu ne woh sui waha nahi chorri hoti toh ye bewakoof khud ko kabhi bhi nahi bacha paata.
Parantu, iske baad bhi Garofano maayus prateet ho rahi thi. Jaise woh khud ko hi dosh de rahi thi.
Veer : Umm-!! Well-
Garofano (glances) : Hmm?
Veer (blushes) : A-Agar tum kuch karna hi chaahti ho toh- W-Well! Actually… Woh jo button tumne sili thi woh gir gayi abhi waha ladte waqt. T-Toh-
Garofano ki nigaahein kuch pal ke liye timtimayi. Jaise maano paar-darshi ho rahi ho. Veer unn aankhon me doob ke kuch na kuch paa sakta tha. Par, iske pehle ki woh aur dekh paata turant hi woh aankhein punah apardarshi ho gayi.
Garofano (smiles) : Iss baar sirf button nahi, Veer! I’ll make a shirt for you!!!
Veer : O-Oh!
Veer uski muskaan me jaise kho sa gaya.
Garofano : Par uss se pehle- Let me do the dressing!
Uske paas hamesha ek first aid kit hoti hi thi. Turant hi apne shrug ko khol usne andar ke jebo se kayi saari bandages nikaali. Jab usne apna shrug khola toh Veer ne dekha ki kaise tarah tarah alag alag akaar ki sui shrug ke andar fix latki hui thi. Yaha tak ki zeher ki woh sheeshi ka bhi alag se jeb bana hua tha. Woh aage aayi aur cotton se komalta se khoon ko pochi. Aur, uske baad disinfectant lagate hue, ek ointment ki parat upar chadha kar bandage ko baandhne lagi.
Garofano : Ho gaya…!
Veer : W-Well! Thanks!
Garofano (mutters) : No one will hurt you from now on!
Veer : Huh!!??
Garofano ne bahut hi dheere se bola tha. Magar, Veer ke senses tez the. Agar, koi aam insaan hota toh woh sunn nahi paata. Parantu, Veer ne sunn liya tha. Aur, sunane ke baad bhi use apne kaano par vishavaas nahi ho raha tha. Kya Garofano ne wahi kaha tha jo usne abhi abhi suna?
Tabhi, ek baar fir unn gundo ke qadmo ki awaaz Veer ke kaano me padi.
Veer : Ye bewakoof log firse-
Lekin, iske pehle ki woh apni baat poori keh paata, use apne haath par ek chubhan mehsoos hui. Aur, fir sunnata uski baah se uske poore shareer tak fel gayi. Use lakwa maar chuka tha. Veer ka vision dhundhla hone laga, usne apna santulan khoya aur woh peeche ki orr girne laga jaha ek narm, garm aalingan me woh utar gaya.
Veer ne dekha ki Garofano ki goad me woh gir chuka tha.
Veer (shocked) : Y-You-!!!!!????
Garofano : It’s okay! It’s okay! Don’t be scared. Kuch nahi hone waala tumhe. It’s alright, honey!
Veer : !!!???
Garofano : Bas, tumhe ab dakhal dene ki zaroorat nahi, my dear.
Veer upar uthane ki koshish karta hai. Uske gaal Garofano ke lambe reshmi baalo se dhake hue the. Aur, uski anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me bhar rahi thi.
Veer : G-Garofano-!!! Why-!!? Ugh-!! Y-You-!!!
Garofano (concerned) : Don’t look at me like that honey! Aur, mujhe Violet keh ke pukaaro please~ Call me informally! Don’t worry! Tumhe kuch nahi hoga. I just want you to be silent.
Veer : W-When did you-???
Badle me Garofano bas muskurayi. Aur, Veer ko turant samajh aa gaya ki uske saath kya hua.
Pichle dwaar se bhaagte waqt jaise hi Garofano ne uski kalaayi thaami thi...!!!
Wahi woh waqt tha jab usne apni ek chhoti si needle uski kalaayi me ghop di thi.
Garofano (smiles) : Mein hamesha tab hamla karti hu jab mere shikaar ko iski sabse kam umeed hoti hai, Veer. Jab woh mujh par sabse zyada bharosa karte hai aur mujhse pyaar karte hai.
Veer : Y-You-!!!
Garofano : Paralysis toxin!!! Mera apna banaya gaya toxin hai. Chaah ke bhi tum ise neutralize nahi kar sakte. *smiles* After all, system ki shop me tumhe iske liye koi skill nahi milegi. Iska cure sirf mera hi anti-toxin hai.
Veer (frowns) : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Mujhe pata tha tum hi ho woh- Y-You were the only one I was yearning for, Veer. No!! My honey!!
Veer : ??
Garofano : Pehle mujhe shaq bhi tha. Kya tum woh insaan hoge bhi ya nahi? Mene itni umeed nahi rakhi thi tumse. P-Par- Tum meri umeedo ke vipreet hi nikle Veer. Tum itne imaandar, bhaavuk… Yaha tak ki itne bhole the ki system holders ki parvah kar baithe? Fufu~ Tum sach me kamaal ho. Aur, isliye mein jald se jald tumhari taraf khichti chali gayi.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mene pehle socha tha ki agar tum mere raaste me aaye, aur tum woh vyakti na nikle jaisa maine socha tha… Toh, mein apne raaste se tumhe hamesha hamesha ke liye alag kar dene waali thi. Of course, abhi bhi tum mera target ho. *smiles* Farq sirf itna hai ki iss baar mein tumhe apne tareeqe se apne paas rakhna chaahti hu.
Veer (frowns) : Wh-What-!!? What do you want-!!?
Garofano : Maine kaha na Veer!
Veer : ??
Garofano : I won’t let you get hurt anymore.
Itna bol woh Veer ko apni goad me uthaayi. Scene ekdum hi alag tha. Ek princess carry me aksar ek ladka ek ladki ko iss tarah uthaata tha par, yaha Garofano Veer ko iss tarah se uthaayi hui thi. Uske chehre se muskaan hatne ka naam nahi le rahi thi.
Veer ko thaame woh sakri galiyo ki gehrayiyo me chalti gayi. Ek sabse chhipe hue kone ko dhoondh usne dheere se Veer ko neeche baithaya.
Woh uski orr jhuki aur uske labo ke paas aayi.
Garofano (smiles) : You just have to wait here. Okay, honey? I’ll settle this quickly.
Aur, neeche jhuk ek jhatke me usne Veer ke honth apne hontho ki giraft me bhar liye.
“Nnnnn~”
Ek siski Garofano ke muh se nikli. Aur, tabhi-
*Ding*
[You have been rewarded 1000 Points.]
Veer ke mann me ek notification ki ghanti baj uthi. Veer, inn points ko enjoy karne ki sthiti me nahi tha. Parantu,
Garofano : Ahhh~!!!
Garofano jhatka lete hue Veer ke hontho se alag hui. Zaahir hai, notification use bhi praapt hua tha.
Garofano (blushes) : W-Wait-!! You get points for this too??? K-Kya aisa isliye hai kyuki hum dono system holders hai? M-My god-!!
Veer toh ye pehle se hi jaanta tha. Pari ne use bata ke rakha tha ki jitni badi hasti ladki hogi, jitni behtar woh hogi uss hisaab se system use ladki ke sang intimate hone par points dega. Ye pehli baar tha jab Veer ne kisi system holder ladki ke hontho ko chooma tha.
Aur, Garofano ka iska na pata hona saaf darshata tha ki woh iss baat se anibhigya tha. Jiska kaaran sirf ek hi tha~
Usne kabhi bhi kisi aur mard ke saath koi bhi intimate relationship nahi rakha tha. Zaahir tha ki woh iss nayi khoj se poori tarah hairan thi. Saath hi kuch excited bhi.
*Skrrrrrrrrrrr*
Agle hi pal usne Veer ki shirt ko pakad ke kheecha aur shirt beech se fatati chali gayi. Saari buttons toot ke bikhar gayi.
Garofano (leans further) : Th-Then kya hoga agar-!? *smiles* Agar hum aur aage badhe, honey???
Uska haath Veer ke nange seene par firta hua upar jaane laga. Veer ke badan par ruye khade ho gaye. Ek sihran uski poore shareer me fel gayi.
Par, punah qadmo ki awaaz ne Garofano ke mood ko kharab kar diya.
Garofano : Jab ye sab khatam ho jayega. Mein tumhe apne saath leke chalungi, Veer. Wait for me here~
Veer chhaya me bina kisi sahayta ke bas laita hua dekhta raha jab tak ki Garofano gali se baahar nahi nikal gayi.
Aur, use kuch pal baad turant hi baahar ki awazein spasht roop se sunayi dene lagi.
Ethan : Hahahaha! Dekho zara kaun aaya hai. Arre? Woh ladka kaha hai? Lagta hai tumko chorr ke darr ke bhaag gaya. Hmm?
Garofano : Bhaag gaya? Hmph! He never runs away. Balki, tumhe apne baare me socha chahiye.
Ethan : Kya bakwaas hai? Nahi! Tumse yaha baat karna bewakoofi hai. Jao pakdo use!!
Halaki, thodi derr ki khamoshi ke baad, kuch bhaari gad-gadahat zameen par goonj gayi. Jaise maano kayi insaan neeche zameen par gir gaye ho. Aur, fir kisi ki ek kamzor kaapti hui awaaz aayi-
“Y-Ye kaise ho sakta hai? Ye ek ladki???”
Ethan ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi. Woh dehshat me chillaya.
Ethan : Y-Ye-!? Ye kaise-!? Kaise sambhav hai?
Garofano : Maine tumhe waqai me halke me le liya tha Ethan. Mujhe nahi laga tha ki tumhari tarah ek pyaada mujhe itni pareshaniya dega.
Ethan : ???
Garofano : Tum aur tumhara bhai dono hi mere shikaar the. Choonki, tumhare zariye maine Mr. Nicholson ko marwa hi diya. Ab baari aati hai tumhari- Right? *smiles*
Ethan (shocked) : M-Mere se marwaya-!?? K-Kya matlab hai tumhara?
Garofano bas muskurayi.
Ethan (screams) : M-Matlab woh tum thi jisne ye afwaah felayi thi ki jaydaad ka batwara hone waala hai???
Garofano (smiles) : Lagta hai tum itne bhi bewaqoof nahi, Ethan!
Poori gali me ek shaanti chhaa gayi.
Aur, iske baad Veer ko ek aur shareer ke girne ki dhamak mehsoos hui. Chand seconds ke baad hi, Garofano dobaara uske saamne haazir thi. Uske hontho par muskaan wesi hi feli hui thi.
Veer (frowns) : T-Tum-!? Iska matlab tum?
Woh hasi. Usne Veer ko punah apni goad me uthaya jaise maano Veer uska chhota beta ho. Use pyaar se apni baaho me liye woh alley ke baahar nikalne lagi.
Garofano : Kya soch rahe ho, Veer? Kya kuch kehna nahi hai?
Veer (growls) : So, it was you-!???
Garofano (smiles) : Of course! Aur, kaun ho sakta hai? Charles Nicholson aur Ethan Nicholson dono hi mere shikaar the. Khaas kar Charles Nicholson!!
Garofano ne apne rang aise badle the jaise girgit badalti thi. Kaha woh 'Dad-Dad' ki ratt lagayi hui thi aur kaha ab woh ye besharmo ki tarah qubool kar rahi thi ki iske peeche uska hi haath tha.
Garofano (frowns) : Mere asli Mom-Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki laparwahi se hi maare gaye the Veer.
Veer : ???
Woh Veer ko baaho me liye aage badhti jaa rahi thi aur apni kahani sunani jaa rahi thi.
Garofano : Mere Mom Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki ek factory me kaam karte the. Factory me aag lagne se unn dono ki jaan chali gayi. Aur, iss haram-zaade ne apne staff ko marne diya tha.
Veer : ??
Veer ko samajh aaya. Iska matlab woh Ryongchon Disaster me Garofano ke maa baap ka marna? Maatra jhooth tha.
Garofano : Iske peeche tab koi gang padi hui thi. Building ki zyada tehqiqaat na ho isliye isne case close kar diya tha. Jitne staff ke log maare gaye, unke baare me koi sawaal na kare isliye sabko ghoos khila ke isne saara maamla rafa dafa karwa diya tha.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Dad? Kaisa Dad? Ye woh aadmi tha jisne baad me unhi mare logo ke parivaar ke anaath logo ke saath shoshan kiya tha. Aur, iska plan toh mujhe bhogna bhi tha. Of course, aisa maine kabhi hone nahi diya.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Khubsoorat hone ke naate Charles mujhe kaise bhi kar ke bhogna chahta tha. Isliye, mujhe apni beti bana ke apne sang le gaya. Aur, tabhi mujhe system bhi mil gaya. Jis cheez ki mujhe talash thi wo mujhe akhir mil hi gayi.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Charles ko apni baato me fusla ke dheere dheere mein uske nirnayo par haawi hone lagi. Mein use apne khud ke banaye gaye sedatives deti jis se woh mere niyantran me rehta tha. Uske mann me maine apni ek atoot chhavi bana li thi. Magar, adanga tha ye Ethan Nicholson.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : Ye China me rehta tha. Lekin, iski poori nazar jaydaad par thi. Ye apne bhai se aur mujhse bhi nafrat karta tha. Mein hi thi woh jisne jaydaad baatne ki afwah felayi thi. Yaha tak ki will ki baat bhi jhooth hai. Mujhe pata tha ki Ethan apne bhai aur fir mujhe maar ke jaydaad par haq jatayega. Isliye, maine afwah fela di ki batwara ho raha hai.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Jabki aisa kuch bhi nahi hone waala tha. Gusse me aake, Ethan ne woh chaal chal hi di jiski mein na jaane kitne samay se aasha kar rahi thi. Ethan ne apne hi bhai ko maar daala. Aur, isi ke saath mera badla bhi poora ho chuka tha. Jaise jaise maine pyaade baithaaye the sabhi ne bilkul wesa hi kaam kiya tha.
Veer : ??
Garofano : Ab baaki tha toh sirf Ethan ke crime ke saboot police ko dena, par tabhi Renshu ne apni taang ada di.
Veer : P-Poison???
Garofano : Huh? Ohh! Of course body me paaya gaya poison mera hi tha. Renshu sach keh raha tha. *smiles* Maine Charles ki body me sui bhi ghopi thi aur poison bhi inject kiya tha. You know? Just to make sure he was dead. Lekin, woh pehle hi adhmara ho chuka tha. Ethan ke aadmiyo ne use pehle hi maar diya tha. I mean... Almost...! Fufu~
Veer (frowns) : A-Alibi-!?
Garofano : Hmm? Ohh? You mean agar mein apni workshop se bahar nahi nikli thi to crime location par pahuch ke woh needle kaise ghusedi? Right? Oh Veer! I'm a system owner. Kya ek system owner darwaze se hi aa jaa sakta hai? I jumped from the terrace. Fufu~
Veer ko ab sab samajh aa raha tha. Sab kuch Garofano ka hi plan tha. Yaha tak ki woh khud ek besahara naari ka vesh-bhusha banaaye khud ko nirdosh jataate hue inn sab ke peeche asli hatyari thi.
Garofano Veer ko car ki taraf le gayi. Veer ne dekha ki kaise sabhi ke sabhi log neeche sadak par behosh pade hue the.
*Click*
Darwaza khol back seat par Garofano ne bade hi komalta se Veer ko litaaya. Veer ka sarr car ke khule darwaze ki taraf tha jaha Garofano khadi hui thi.
Woh jhuki aur uske chehre ko pakad uske nazdeek aayi.
Garofano : But as I said~ I won't let anyone harm you!
Veer : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Iss tarah se mat dekho Veer. Dil dukhta hai. Charles ke saath wahi hua jo wo deserve karta tha. Also, Ethan ko mein nahi dekhungi. Use to police dekh legi. Sab kuch maine audio video sab record kar rakha hai. I have a hidden camera here~
Usne apne shrug ki ek badi si kaali button ki orr ishara karte hue kaha.
Woh muskurate hue jhuki, Veer ke hontho ko punah choomne ke liye par tabhi-
'Huh!!!???'
*Gwakh*
Ek mazboot haath ne uske gale ko daboch liya. Garofano ke hosh udd chuke the. Woh bhaybheet hote hue neeche Veer ko dekhi, jo uske gale ko jakde hue tha.
P-Par ye kaise? Veer hilne dulne ki haalat me nahi tha. Uska paralysis toxin kam se kam 3 ghante tak asardar rehta tha. Aur, toh aur system ki shop me bhi iska koi upaay nahi tha.
Iska upaay ya to yahi tha ki 3 ghante tak intezar kiya jaaye ya fir anti-paralysis toxin ka istemal kiya jaaye jiski vidhi sirf aur sirf uske hi paas thi.
Garofano ke paseene chooth rahe the. Veer ke chehre par koi bhaav nahi the. Aur, fir usne bolna shuru kiya.
Garofano : V-Veer-!? T-Tum-!?
Veer : Mein jaanta tha shuru se hi ki ye sab tumhara dhong tha.
Garofano : Ahh!??
Veer : Kyuki, poison sirf tumhare aur Renshu ke paas tha. Renshu khud hi body me poison dalwa ke mujhe autopsy ki report nahi bhejega. Isme koi shaq nahi tha ki body me poison tha. Aur woh poison do hi logo se aa sakta tha. Renshu and you!!!
Garofano : Ughh! Th-That's-!
Veer : Erica aur Renshu ka meri itni madad karna wahi dusri orr tumhara mere nazdeek aana, khul ke saari details bhi na dena aur sach ko chhipana. I already saw through it.
Garofano : T-To s-say such a thing-
Veer (smiles) : I was just seeing how far you will go.
Garofano (frowns) : K-Kaise-!? I knew I-
Veer (smiles) : You pricked me? Are you sure? *grins* Kya waqai tumhari sui meri kalaayi me dhasi thi?
Garofano : Urggh!!
Gale par Veer ki pakad mazboot ho rahi thi. Par, Garofano bas uski kalaayi ko thaami thi. Virodh nahi kar rahi thi.
Garofano : I-I... I did-!!
Veer ne tabhi apni shirt ki wrist ki button kholi aur usme se ek eraser jaisa kuch baahar nikal ke gira, jise dekh Garofano ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi.
Veer : Tumhari needle meri skin me nahi iss kneadable rubber eraser me ghusi thi. And you thought- *grins*
Paansa palat chuka tha. Jaha pehle Garofano poori tarah se Veer par haawi thi aur soch rahi thi ki sab kuch uske plan ke hisaab se hi gaya parantu, ab drishya ekdum ulta tha. Ab woh khud Veer ke qabze me thi.
Garofano (shocked) : Wh-When did you-!?
Veer (smiles) : You don't need to know that.
Veer ne agle hi shan use ek baar me chorr diya. Garofano apne gale ko pakadte hue peeche hui aur lambi lambi saansein lene lagi. Veer abhi bhi usi tarah araam se car me leta hua tha aur iss baar wo tha jo muskura ke use dekh raha tha.
Garofano : T-Tumbe mujhe... Yuhi chorr diya?
Veer (smiles) : I believe you!
Garofano : Huh?
Veer : Because I know you won't hurt me.
Badle me woh bhi muskurayi. Punah uski orr aage aayi. Veer shan bhar ke liye sachet hua par jab uske tapte garam honth aake Veer ke hontho par lage toh woh kuch kehne ki haalat me hi na raha.
*Kiss*
Ek chhoti si hi kiss thi. Khud ko dur ko Garofano muskurayi. Itna sab hone ke baad bhi woh Veer ko kiss karne se peeche nahi hatt rahi thi. Chand pal pehle hi Veer ne uske gale ko jakad rakha tha.
Garofano : Tumhe yaha se jaana chahiye Veer. Mujhe ye sab settle karne me ek din kam se kam lagega hi lagega. Zyada bhi lag sakta hai. Toh mein mine ke matter ke liye tumhare saath nahi aa paungi. I'm sorry. But tum jaante ho ki mujh par bhi sanctions lage hai. Inn dino mein busy rehne waali hu.
Veer : Got it!!
Woh tabhi daud ke apni workshop me gayi aur ek packet baahar leke aayi.
Veer : What's this?
Garofano (smiles) : It's a shirt! Meri taraf se. Tumhare liye. It's all black!!!
Veer : Ohh? Thanks, I guess?
Garofano uski collor pakad use kheench ke uske kaan ko apne labo tak laayi aur fir haule se boli,
Garofano : Mine ke matter ke liye, Renshu tumhare saamne do prastaav rakhega Veer. Pehla ki tribal logo ki territory me jaana aur ladna. Aur, dusra ki seedha Legion ke Head Jaw Long ke paas jaana aur usko khatam karna.
Veer : ???
Garofano : And if you're smart enough. Then, you know what to choose right? Galti se bhi Jaw Long se ladne ke liye khud ko aage mat karna. Your safety is important. Mein aas paas nahi rahungi, so I won't be able to help you out.
Veer : I know what to do. Don't worry!
Garofano (frowns) : Veer please~!!! Jaw Long se ladne tum nahi jaoge. Kya tum khud ki safety ke baare me nahi soch sakte? Tumhari family bhi hai. Don't take risks.
Veer : I know!
Garofano (nods) : Mein jald hi aaungi. Till then... Take care...!
Woh Veer ke gaal par haath ferr waha se nikal gayi. Zaahir hai usne police ko call kar diya tha. Aur, sab kuch police ko saupne waali thi. Ethan ab chaah ke bhi iss se baahar nahi aa sakta tha.
Toh wahi Veer Renshu ki car leke wapas uske ghar ke liye nikal chuka tha.
Car me hi uske mission ki notification uske dimag me goonj chuki thi.
*Ding*
['Mission : Unmask the culprit' has been completed.]
[You have been rewarded 3000 points.]
Veer ne case ko handle karne se pehle hi Intelligence 10 points se badha liya tha. Woh jaanta tha ki yaha pe dimaag ke ghode daudaane ki zaroorat thi. Aur, woh extra 10 intelligence ne hi aaj use bacha liya tha.
Woh aage aane waale dino ke baare me sochta hua gaadi sarpat raaste par daudata chala gaya.
***
Mumbai...
Kaera's home...
Night ~ 10:12 PM
Ghar me jhunjhlate hue aaj pehli baar Kaera apne kamre me aayi. Uske iss ravaiyye se ghar me maujood kaam karne waala saara staff hairaan tha.
Aisa aam taur par nahi hota tha. Kabhi kabhi hi woh log Miss Kaera ko gusse me dekh paate the.
Julia jo ki Kaera ke kamre me saaf safaayi hi kar rahi thi, apni Miss ko gusse me aate dekh thodi aashcharya me reh gayi.
Usne dekha ki peeche peeche Karan bhi aaya hua tha.
Julia : Eh!??
Kaera aate hi bistar par baith gayi. Aur, apni aankhein band kar na jaane kin vicharo me leen ho gayi.
Julia : I-Is something the matter? Master Karan?
Karan : A-Actually, hua ye ki... Jis company se hamari deal hone waali thi. Woh company achanak hi Elite Motors se deal kar li. Aur, Elite Motors... You know very well...! Sonia di-!!!
Julia : Ahh! I see!
Karan : Dii ka kehna hai ki Ruchika dii ne kuch gadbad kar di. Kyuki, Ruchika dii ne jaisa bataya tha aur jaisa plan kiya tha wesa kuch hua nahi. Balki, Elite Motors ne woh sab pehle hi kar diya tha. Mujhe nahi pata ki unn logo ne ye kaise kiya. Kaise deal dii ke haatho se leli... But, kuch gadbad hamari hi taraf se hui hai, I think.
Julia : I see!
Karan : Dii ka dhyaan rakhna Julia please. She's mad right now.
Julia (smiles) : Don't worry Master Karan.
Karan itna bol waha se nikal gaya. Parantu, Kaera ka mood aise hi sahi nahi hone waala tha. Kabhi aisa nahi hua tha. Upar se Sonia-!!!!
Kaera : Where's Veer Julia?
Veer ki jankari ikhatta karne ka kaam Kaera ne Julia ko hi saupa tha. Julia sirf maid nahi thi. Uske neeche bhi maids thi jo uske liye kaam karti thi. Woh maids jo ghar se leke baahar ke kaamo me bhi maahir thi.
Julia : You keep pushing him away. Why would he care?
Kaera : Wh-What!??? A-Aisa kab hua? Maine kab use khud se dur kiya?
Julia : When was the last time you had a beautiful chat with him?
Kaera : I-
Woh maun reh gayi. Use waqai yaad nahi tha ki akhiri baar Veer ke sang baith ke usne kab baat-cheet ki thi.
Julia : I keep telling you, young miss!
Kaera (glances) : Huh?
Julia : Do you know what's the meaning of a 'good woman'?
Kaera : A good woman?
Julia : A good woman never points out the unnecessary flaws of her partner. A woman's role is to support her man.
Kaera : Huh?
Julia : You are someone who can make Young Master Veer feel like a king just by being beside him. That's what a good woman does. She can boost the confidence of her man no matter what the situation remains.
Kaera : M-Mein jaanti hu but-
Julia : A good woman will never say 'You are lucky to have me.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Mein aisi nahi hu Julia. H-How can I-!?
Julia : A good woman will never say 'Earn more money.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Maine kab?
Julia : You did it indirectly. Weren't you the one who told me you want Young Master Veer to become more rich in order to have you?
Kaera : Ahh-! N-No-! You misunderstood Julia!
Julia : And lastly...
Kaera : Huh???
Julia : A good woman is never too busy for her partner. When she's asking the whereabouts of her partner from her maid...! That explains everything!
Kaera (frowns) : J-Julia-!!!
Kaera pehle se hi pareshan thi. Upar se Julia ne uske dil par ghaat aur pahucha di thi. Kintu, Julia ne jo kuch bhi kaha tha woh apne dil se aur sach hi kaha tha.
Julia Kaera ko akela chhor baahar jaane lagi par jaate jaate woh darwaze ki dehleez par ruki,
Julia : Please! Take down your mask, young miss. You don't need any mask in front of Young Master Veer.
Kaera : I-
Julia : This time you lost just the deal. If you keep behaving like this... You might lose Young Master Veer himself.
Kaera : Huh!????
Aur, itna bol Julia waha se ravana ho gayi. Reh gayi toh bas Kaera aur uski aankhon se behte aasu.

Bahut hi shaandar update diya hai Werewolf bhai.....Update - 173 ~ Unmasked
[Note : Update bada hai toh itminaan se padhna.]
Ab tak...
Tej (nods) : Hmm! Kuch pata nahi lag paa raha ki woh kaha gaya hai. India se baahar hai. Bas keh deta hai ki business ke silsile me baahar aaya hu. Par- par mujhe lagta hai ki woh humse kuch chhipa raha hai Mom. Iss baar mein use chorrne waali nahi hu. Mein use itni asaani se maaf nahi karungi. Aur, aap bhi mujhe kuch nahi bolengi.
Bhavna ki bauhe kasi hui thi. Uska laadla bina bataaye ghar se chala gaya? Kaha gaya hoga bhala? Woh ek chintan me doob gayi.
Ab aage...
Garofano riha ho chuki thi. Magar, sab kuch samapt nahi hua tha. Case abhi bhi ruka hua tha aur hatyara abhi bhi salaakho ke peeche nahi tha.
Case behad hi pecheeda tha. Kintu, Veer ne ise bhaanp liya tha ki iski gathaane kis tarah bandhi hui thi.
Ghatnao ko agar kram anusar lagaya jaaye toh woh kuch iss prakar se ghatit hui thi.
Mr. Nicholson ka apni beti ke sang China aana.
Woh jaydad ka batwaara kar rahe hai aur apne chhote bhai se rishte naate tod dena chaahte hai, isliye yaha aaye hai.
Woh apni beti Violet ki personal workshop par jaate hai.
Unka workshop se nikalna aur fir achanak se gayab ho jaana.
Unki laash ek khandahar me praapt hona jo ki sheher se kaafi duri par tha.
Ye tha ghatnakram hatya ke poorv se leke hatya tak ka. Parantu, asli gutthi toh yaha se aarambh hui thi. Jaha police aake apni investigation par poornviram laga chuki thi toh wahi Veer ke liye ab ye investigation shuru hui thi. Kyuki, yahi se system owners aur unke kathan shaamil ho chuke the.
Renshu ka kehna tha ki mrat shareer me pehle se hi zeher paaya gaya tha. Hospital waalo ne autopsy ki report me bhi yahi bataya tha. Aur, use yakeen hai ki yeh Garofano ka hi kaam tha.
Kintu, Garofano saboot mita ke chali gayi thi. Isliye, Renshu ne Garofano ki tohfe me di hui woh needles dobara se laash par Erica ke dwara wahi chhudhwa di. Upar se ek needle uski workshop me bhi Erica chupke se rakh aayi. Taaki, police crime location par mile saboot ko workshop me mile saboot se match kar sake. Aur, Garofano ko jail bhej sake.
Renshu ki nazro me Garofano hi hatyari thi.
Magar, dusri orr Garofano ye qubool karne ko taiyaar nahi thi. Uske kathan ke anusar woh nirdosh thi. Aur, ye sab Renshu dwara use fasaane ke liye kiya gaya tha.
Saare saboot uske khilaaf the. Uske paas apni begunahi saabit karne ke liye kuch nahi tha. Uska kehna yahi tha ki usne apne pita ki hatya nahi ki hai. Usne Renshu ke upar ilzaam zaroor lagaya tha. Parantu, ilzaam ye lagaya tha ki Renshu use fasa raha hai. Ye nahi lagaya ki Renshu ne uske pita ko maara hai.
Ye baat Veer ke dimaag me baith chuki thi. Woh chaahti toh dosh Renshu par daal sakti thi jaise usne uss par daala tha. Veer ne jab uss se iska kaaran pucha tha toh usne bas yahi jawaab diya tha ~
"Maine Dad ko nahi maara hai, Veer! Why would I? Aur, mein ye kaise keh du ki Renshu ne unhe maara hai? Mein itna jaanti hu ki usne mujhe fasaya hai. Dad ko kisne maara, ye main nahi jaanti. Toh aise me dosh kaise daal sakti hu kisi par?"
"What about the past illustration?"
"Agar, insaan marrne se pehle apne hosh kho de toh hum uske past me ye nahi dekh sakte ki uske baad uske saath kya hua. Zaahir hai behoshi me mere Dad ko maara gaya hoga. Past mein chaah ke bhi poora nahi dekh paayi."
Yaha Veer ko system ki ek nayi jankari haath lagi thi. Agar, marrne waala vyakti apni maut ke chand pal pehle hi behosh ho jaaye toh use toh pata hi nahi chalega ki uske saath kya hua.
Aise me system uska past poorn roop se nahi dikha payega. Uski maut kisne ki ye chhip ke reh jayega.
Garofano ke iss khathan me kitni sachayi thi ye Veer nahi jaanta tha. Magar, kabhi na kabhi woh ise aazma ke dekh hi sakta tha. Usne punah apne prashn rakhe~
"Tumne kuch toh dekha hoga? Kaun the woh log? Kitne log the?"
"Yes!!! Kayi saare log the. Dad meri workshop se jab nikle the toh unn logo ne dad ko follow karna shuru kar diya tha. Uske baad woh unhe gher ke uss location par le gaye. Aur, fir...!"
"Kuch aur detail?"
"Sirf itna hi pata chala ki kuch aadmi the aur sabhi muh par kapda baandhe hue the."
"Isliye, tum Renshu par blame nahi daal rahi?"
"Of course! Mujhe nahi pata woh uske aadmi the ya kisi aur ke. Aise me mein kisi par bhi ungli nahi utha sakti Veer."
Inhi kuch baato ke chalte Veer kaafi kuch iss case ko samajh chuka tha. Gunde zaroor Ethan Nicholson ke the. Erica jo report laayi thi usme saaf saaf ye zahir tha ki haal hi me Ethan ne underworld gangs se contact kiya hai.
Garofano ka riha hona bhi itna saral nahi tha. Woh pehle hi jail se bhaag chuki thi. Isliye, uss par bhi kanoon todne ke kuch sanctions lage the.
Magar, woh filhal ke liye jail se chooth chuki thi. Needles par Garofano ke koi bhi fingerprints nahi paaye gaye the. Body par bhi Garofano ka koi fingerprint maujood nahi tha. Yaha tak ki uski odour bhi crime spot par K-9 unit bhaanp nahi paaye the.
Parantu, sabse bada saboot jiski wajah se Garofano choothi woh tha uski workshop ka CCTV footage.
Mr. Charles Nicholson apni beti ke sang uski workshop me aaye the. CCTV me sab qaid hua tha. Aur, kuch derr baad Mr. Nicholson workshop se nikal gaye. Ghar se baahar nikalne ke do raaste the. Aage se aur peeche se. Aur, dono hi taraf CCTV maujood the. Magar, dono hi CCTV me Garofano apni workshop se nikalti hui dikhayi nahi di.
Iska matlab saaf tha ki Garofano ki alibi confirm ho chuki thi. Jiss waqt Mr. Nicholson baahar khandhar me mrat paaye gaye the. Uss waqt Garofano apni workshop me hi thi. Woh workshop se baahar nikli hi nahi thi.
Inn tamaam sabooto ki wajah se aur FBCC ke involvement ke kaaran, China ke court ko apna faisla turant ke turant badalna pada. Ab Ethan Nicholson tha jise sawaalo ke uttar dene the.
Lag-bhag 2 din me hi Veer ne saara case suljha diya tha. Raat ke 10 baj rahe the aur woh ab Renshu se mine ke silsile me baat karne hi jaa raha tha jab-
*Ding*
[Mission : Unmask the culprit.
Rewards : ???? Points.
Time Limit : 8 hours.
Mission Failure Penalty : No Penalty.]
'What!!??'
Veer stabdh tha. Khush bhi tha ki itne samay baad akhir kaar use mission praapt hua magar, mission iss waqt milna jab sab kuch saamne hi tha. Ye baat koi sense nahi bana rahi thi.
Mission fail hone ki koi penalty nahi thi ye dekh kar usne ek rahat ki saans li. Ye points uske hi the.
Woh abhi kuch aur sochta ki itne me uske samaksh Garofano aake khadi ho gayi.
Garofano : Veer!!!
Veer : Hmm?
Garofano : Mein ab detention me nahi hu. Toh... Kya tum mere saath meri workshop chaloge?
Veer : Ohh? Workshop ki key police waalo ne tumhe wapas dedi?
Garofano (smiles) : Mujhe kaise de sakte hai? Mein abhi bhi bhaagi hui qaidi hu unki nazro me. Divya aur hamare lawyer ko di gayi thi key. Maine Divya se leli hai. So? Kya tum chaloge?
Veer : Kuch zaroori kaam hai?
Garofano (nods) : Hmm-Mmm~! Choonki, promise ke anusar ab mine ke silsile me mein yaha busy hone waali hu toh kuch important cheezein waha se uthaani thi.
Veer : Ohh! Sure! Why not?
Garofano : Really?
Veer : Of course!
Garofano (smiles) : Thank you!
Woh muskurati hui uska haath pakad use kheechte hue baahar ko le jaane lagi.
Erica aur Renshu dono saath me hi wahi baithe the jis kamre se hoke Garofano aur Veer guzar rahe the.
Erica : Tumhari fir koi nayi chaal hai kya?
Garofano : Mein Veer ko apni workshop leke jaa rahi hu. Mujhe waha se kuch zaroori samaan uthana hai. Car ki key chahiye mujhe.
Erica : Hum koi car ki chaavi tumhe nahi-
Renshu (nods) : Theek hai!
Erica : Wh-Whattt? Dad???
Renshu : Chaavi dedo Erica!!!
Iss baar bhi harr baar ki tarah ulta hi hua. Jab jab wo kuch karne jaati, uske Dad uss se vipreet nirnay suna dete the.
Woh daant meeste hue uthi aur chaavi ko usne be-mann se Garofano ki orr fek diya. Divya apne escort me sang baaki formalities ko poora karne me lagi hui thi toh woh iss waqt yaha nahi thi.
Ye mauka Veer ke liye sahi tha.
Aur, dono Veer Garofano Renshu ke ghar se ravana hoke workshop ki orr chal diye.
***
*Kuch derr baad*
Woh dono workshop pahuch chuke the. Sheher se ye workshop thodi duri par thi. Garofano ka kehna tha ki woh zyada shor waali jagahe pasand nahi karti thi, isliye iss jagah ko usne apni workshop ke liye chuna tha. Jagah buri nahi thi. Bas, thodi sunsaan thi. Aas paas ghar nahi the, showrooms, cafes bas yahi sab the jo lights se raushan ho rakhe the.
Unhe yaha aane me hi lagbhag 2 ghanta lag chuka tha. Raat ke 12 baj rahe the aur sabhi apne apne vyapaar ki dukaano ko band kar apne ghar jaa chuke the.
Garofano : Aao Veer! Please~
*Click*
Garofano ne ek lambe se darwaaze ka lock khola aur Veer ko andar ki orr le gayi. Usne ek switch ghumaya aur garm peeli roshni ne kamre ke samaan ko raushan kar diya. Bhale hi itne dino se ghar band hone ke kaaran dhool ki ek patli parat jagah jagah jama ho gayi thi par fir bhi Veer mehsoos kar sakta tha ki ghar mool roop se kitna sundar aur saath hi saath aramdayak tha.
Kayi jagah Garofano ke haath se banaaye kapde mannequins par tange hue the, saath hi decorations jo kamre ki saaj-sajja ko aur bhi nikhaar rahe the.
Veer : Y-Ye sab-!? Ye sab tumne banaya hai?
Wese toh usne pehle hi check kar ke ye pata laga liya tha parantu, fir bhi woh Garofano ke muh se sunn’na chaahta tha.
Garofano : Haan! Ye sab abhi bhi poori tarah se taiyaar nahi hai.
Usne aage badh wahi rakhe mannequin par lipti ek dress ko dheere se sehla kar, ek aah bharte hue kaha.
Garofano : Well? Jisne ye order diya tha, woh toh ab ise kabhi bhi nahi pehen sakta.
Uska ishaara mannequin par tange ek coat ki taraf tha. Veer samajh gaya. Shayad Garofano ke Dad apne liye iss coat ka order deke gaye the. Kintu, use pehen'ne se pehle hi woh chal base.
Garofano ki nazre wahi rakhe ek flower vase par gayi.
Garofano : Itne dino baad lauti hu ki phool bhi murjha gaye hai.
Veer : It’s okay! Taaza phulo se hum inhe badal denge. *smiles*
Garofano (smiles) : Hmm! Mein washroom se aati hu. Feel free to look around Veer~
Uske jaate hi Veer kuch qadam aage badh wahi kamre me tehelne laga. Mannequins ko dekhte hue woh dresses ko bhi parakh raha tha. Na jaane udhar Mumbai me Louis aur baaki sabhi Yarnia ko lekar kitna aage badhe honge? Uske WhatsApp par na jaane kitne saare messages dale hue the. Jinme se sabse zyada Tej aur Kavya ke hi the.
Kintu, Veer ke paas filhal kisi ko bhi reply dene ka samay nahi tha. Woh jaanta tha ki agar usne reply diya toh aur 100 sawaal uske sarr aa jayenge.
Abhi woh tehel hi raha tha jab uske kaan achanak hi kuch halchal sunn khade ho gaye. Woh turant hi ek deewaar ke peeche chhip gaya aur tabhi-
*BAAAAANNNGGGG*
Tezz awaaz ke saath ghar ke saamne ka darwaaza dhadalle se achanak khul gaya. Kayi saare log haatho me hathiyaar liye aa dhamke. Aur, unke saamne ek patla sa vyakti tha jo shayad inn aadmiyo ka boss prateet ho raha tha.
Aadmi : Aapko pakka yakeen hai na Mr. Nicholson? Ki woh yahi hai?
Ethan Nicholson : Haan Haan! Yahi woh ghar hai! Hmph! Mere khabri ne mujhe khabar di hai ki usne inn logo ko andar jaate dekha hai. Uske saath koi- koi aur bhi hai. Dhundho unhe jaldi!
Veer ko turant ke turant hi samajh aa gaya ki bhala iss waqt Mr. Nicholson ka ye chhota bhai yaha kyu aaya hua tha. Woh ek aise mauqe ki talaash kar raha tha jaha woh uske aur Garofano ke khilaaf qadam utha sake.
Veer chaahta toh aage badh unhe maar maar ke unki khatiya khadi kar deta. Parantu, yaha dimaag se chalne ki zaroorat thi. Agar woh baahar nikal unn sab se ladta toh zaahir hai ki unme se koi bhi uska saamna nahi kar paata.
Par, unki dhulayi karne ke baad kya? Veer unki jaan nahi le sakta tha aur na hi lena chahta tha. Aise me agar woh firse kahi court chale gaye ya unhone maar peet ka evidence pesh kar diya, toh ye case aur badh jaane waala tha.
Aur, dusra kaaran jo use rok raha tha woh ye ki Mr. Nicholson ka chhota bhai Garofano ka ek prakaar se relative hi tha. Muh bola hi sahi par rishtedaar toh lagta hi tha. Yaha woh bina Garofano ki anumati ke koi action nahi lena chahta tha. Dekhne se lag raha tha shayad Ethan Nicholson bail par tha.
Woh abhi paristithi se nikalne ke baare me soch hi raha tha jab achanak do narm thande haath uski gardan aur gaalo ko sehlate hue uske muh par aaye aur use dhak liye.
Veer : !!??
Garofano : Shhhh!!! Mein hu Veer~
Woh peeche se uss se aake lipat gayi. Uske baalo se aati anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me pravesh ki. Garofano ke dil ki dhadkan use apni peeth par mehsoos ho rahi thi. Veer ne use apni gardan mod ke dekh ek haami bhari. Uski nazre jaise puch rahi thi ki aage kya karna hai?
Garofano : Ek peeche ka darwaza bhi hai. Hum waha se nikal sakte hai. Aao mere saath-! Inse bhidna theek nahi. Inke khilaf pehle saboot ikhatta karna hoga.
Veer ne use pal bhar ke liye dekha. Jaise kehna chaah raha ho ki kya waqai hum system owners inn aam aadmiyo se darr kar bhaag rahe hai?
Aur, Garofano ne bhi jaise uske mann ki baat padh li, isliye woh turant hi haule se boli.
Garofano : Hum darr ke nahi bhaag rahe, Veer. Par, harr baar taqat nahi dikhayi jaati. Come!
Woh Veer ko leke peeche ke darwaaze ki orr badhi. Uski awaaz behad hi shaant thi jaise ki woh achanak hue iss hamle se zara bhi vichlit nahi thi. Ye jaante hue bhi ki uske Dad ke sage chhote bhai hi inn sab ke peeche the.
Veer ko pata hi nahi chala ki Garofano uske itna qareeb akhir kaise aa gayi thi? Uske mann me ek ajeeb si anubhooti jaagi. Lekin, sochne ka samay nahi tha.
Dead Silence!! Yahi woh skill thi. Pehli baar jab woh uss se mila tha tab bhi Garofano ne Dead Silence ka prayog kiya tha. Veer ko ye yaad tha.
‘Such a deadly skill! I’m jealous!’
[Indeed.]
Aadmiyo ki nazro se bachte hue woh dono hi tamaam samaano ki aadh me pichhle dwaar tak pahuch gaye.
Garofano : Yahi hai gate peeche ka. Yaha se hum-
*BAAAAAANNNNGGGGG*
Woh bolti ki iske pehle hi ek bullet tezi se Garofano ke perr par lagne ko aayi magar-
*Swishhhh*
Woh ek jhatke me bagal ko ho gayi. Peeche ke gate par bhi kuch aadmi aa chuke the. Shayad woh sabhi poori planning se aaye the.
Ethan Nicholson (shouts) : Violet!!! Dhokebaaz aurat….!!! Bhaagne ki firaaq me thi tum? Hai na? Hahaha! Dusro se kaam nikalwane me tumhara koi jawab nahi. Ye ladka…! Zaroor, tum hi ho woh jisne ye case apne haath me liya, hai na?
Garofano : Mr. Ethan? No!!! Ethan!!! Tumne hi mere Dad ko maara hai. Aur, mein chup nahi baithne waali.
Ethan : Tchhh!!! Agar, tumhare bagal se khada woh kameena mere raaste me na aaya hota toh mein kab ka qamyab ho gaya hota. Yaha tak ki will ki saari property mere naam ho gayi hoti. Lekin, sirf iski wajah se… sirf iski wajah se… Mujhe jail jaana pada. Woh toh bhala ho ki police ko mere khilaaf thos saboot nahi mil paaya. Aur, shukriya mere lawyer ka jiski wajah se mujhe do din ki bail mil gayi. Ab sab kuch mere hisaab se hi chalega…!
Garofano : …!?
Ethan : Kya saboot dilwaya tha tumne? Haha? Apni alibi ka? Woh main darwaze par laga CCTV aur uski recording na? Maine woh CCTV uda diya hai. Hahahaha! Aur, ye raha tumhara dusra CCTV...!
*BANG*
Usne pichle darwaaze par lage CCTV ki taraf apni bandook se nishana laga ke fire kiya aur dusre CCTV ke bhi chithde udd gaye.
Ethan : Hahahaha!!! Ab yaha kya hua, kaise hua, kisi ko kuch nahi pata chalega.
Garofano : To think that... Mere Dad ko tumne maara...! Tumne-!!!
Ethan (screams) : Ye sab tumhari wajah se hua hai. Sab tumhari galti hai.
Veer : Shut up!
Ethan : H-Huh-!?
Veer : Tum lucky the jo uss waqt Violet ko koi aur fasaana chaahta tha. Apne bade bhai ko tumne pehle hi maar diya tha. Ye tumhari kismat thi jo waha par Violet ke khilaaf saboot koi aur chorr gaya. Tum darre hue the. Tumhe lag raha tha ki body ko tumne thikaane nahi lagaaya. Tum kaise bach paoge? Tabhi, tumhe khabar mili ki Violet ke khilaaf murder scene par saboot milne ki wajah se use arrest kar liya gaya hai. Aur, tab tumhari khushi ka koi thikaana nahi tha. Hai na? Tum ye mauka apne haath se nahi jaane dena chaahte the. Right?
Ethan (screams) : Sh-Shut upppp!!!! You bastard!!!!
Veer ki ek ek baat khanjar ki tarah Ethan ke shareer me ghup rahi thi. Harr baat jaise sach prateet ho rahi thi. Ethan gusse se jhunjhlaya hua tha. Uska poora badan krodh me kaanp raha tha.
Baat sach thi ki woh body ko samay par thikane nahi lagwa paaya tha. Kyuki, usi waqt waha kisi ke aane ki aahat paake uske aadmi waha se bhaag gaye the.
Use laga tha ki woh ab gaya. Ab woh fass jayega. Kintu, agle hi din Garofano ke khilaf police ne crime sthal par saboot dhoondh nikaale the. Woh jaan chuka tha ki uss waqt jo log aaye the woh zaroor wahi log honge jinhone Garofano ke khilaf waha saboot chorre honge.
Zaahir hai, woh shaks Erica hi thi.
Veer : Par, sach chhipaya nahi jaa sakta. Tumne socha ki iss se accha mauka Violet ko fasaane ka nahi milega. Aur, isliye tum underground ho gaye. Tumne turant hi iss case ko proceed karwaya jisme minimum se minimum investigation ki gayi. Of course, tumhari kahani ke hisaab se tum apne conclusion par pahuch hi gaye the.
Ethan : H-Huh!?
Veer (grins) : Jab tak mein iss kahani me nahi aaya tha!!!
Ethan : Y-You-!!!! *shouts* You bastard!!! M-Mein tumhe dikhaata hu…! Jao! Unn dono ko pakad ke mere paas lao. Mujhe wo dono zinda chahiye!!!
Usne apne haath se ishara kiya aur ek ke baad ek gunde Veer aur Garofano ki taraf badhne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Ding*
[Beowulf's Blessings has been activated.]
Ek gunde ne Veer ke chehre ki taraf jaise hi ek pipe ghumaya, Veer ne baaju hote hi badi hi saralta se use dodge kar liya.
Veer ko achanak iss tarah hamla dodge karte dekh gunde aapas me chaunke par fir gambheer hote hue dobara vaar karne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
Magar, harr prayas vifal. Veer ne mauka dekha aur turant hi Garofano ko darwaaze ke baahar dhakela.
Turant ke turant wo khud bhi nikla par tabhi-
*Bang*
Ethan ki bullet uski baah ko graze karte hue nikal gayi. Bullet uske haath ko kharochte hue gayi thi. Khoon behna shuru ho chuka tha.
Garofano (concerned) : Veeeerrr???
Veer : Don't worry!!! Quick!!!
Garofano : I know!!!
Garofano ne Veer ki kalaayi thaami, use dekha. Aur, tezi ke saath waha se bhaagi. Ghar se lagi hui kayi saari alleys bani hui thi. Unhi me se ek alley me woh Veer ko leke uske sang andar ghus gayi.
Ethan (screams) : Madarchodo-!!! Pakdo unhe-!!!
Veer ko unke qadmo ki awaaz sunayi de rahi thi. Par, woh sab ke sab clueless idhar se udhar bhatak rahe the. Jab qadmo ki awaaz poori tarah se band ho gayi, toh Veer ne Beowulf ko band kar diya.
Veer : Kya soch ke woh yaha aaya tha?
Garofano : Socha hoga ki kuch gundo ke lekar jaunga toh ye amla naari kya hi mera kuch bigaad payegi.
Veer : Uss bechare ko nahi pata tha ki hum system owners hai. Too bad!!
Garofano chalte hue uske nazdeek aayi aur chintit nazro se woh uske haath ko dekhi jaha se khoon abhi bhi tapak raha tha. Use koi zyada chot nahi aayi thi. Kuch hi ghanto me ye chot poori tarah se theek ho jaane wali thi. Ye baat Garofano khud bhi jaanti thi. Magar, uske bawajood woh chinta vyakt kar rahi thi. Kahi na kahi use khushi thi ki Veer use bachaane ke liye aage aaya. Ye jaante hue bhi ki woh khud ek system owner thi. Toh kahi use gham bhi tha Veer ki abhi ki haalat dekh ke.
Garofano : Mujhe dekhne do!
Veer : What?? Y-Ye? Don’t worry! Ye theek ho jayega!!
Garofano ne bina uski baat maane hi ek jhatke me uski aasteen faad ke alag kar di.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mein jaanti hu ki ye tumhari liye maamuli chot hai. P-Par- Par, mere liye nahi hai.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : I’m sorry! Na mein tumhe yaha laati, aur na hi ye sab kuch hota.
Veer : Pagal ho kya? Ye kuch bhi nahi hai! Don’t overreact! Hume thodi pata tha ki woh Ethan iss tarah ki tactic khel jayega. Now that I see it. He’s so dumb. Agar, Renshu ne woh sui waha nahi chorri hoti toh ye bewakoof khud ko kabhi bhi nahi bacha paata.
Parantu, iske baad bhi Garofano maayus prateet ho rahi thi. Jaise woh khud ko hi dosh de rahi thi.
Veer : Umm-!! Well-
Garofano (glances) : Hmm?
Veer (blushes) : A-Agar tum kuch karna hi chaahti ho toh- W-Well! Actually… Woh jo button tumne sili thi woh gir gayi abhi waha ladte waqt. T-Toh-
Garofano ki nigaahein kuch pal ke liye timtimayi. Jaise maano paar-darshi ho rahi ho. Veer unn aankhon me doob ke kuch na kuch paa sakta tha. Par, iske pehle ki woh aur dekh paata turant hi woh aankhein punah apardarshi ho gayi.
Garofano (smiles) : Iss baar sirf button nahi, Veer! I’ll make a shirt for you!!!
Veer : O-Oh!
Veer uski muskaan me jaise kho sa gaya.
Garofano : Par uss se pehle- Let me do the dressing!
Uske paas hamesha ek first aid kit hoti hi thi. Turant hi apne shrug ko khol usne andar ke jebo se kayi saari bandages nikaali. Jab usne apna shrug khola toh Veer ne dekha ki kaise tarah tarah alag alag akaar ki sui shrug ke andar fix latki hui thi. Yaha tak ki zeher ki woh sheeshi ka bhi alag se jeb bana hua tha. Woh aage aayi aur cotton se komalta se khoon ko pochi. Aur, uske baad disinfectant lagate hue, ek ointment ki parat upar chadha kar bandage ko baandhne lagi.
Garofano : Ho gaya…!
Veer : W-Well! Thanks!
Garofano (mutters) : No one will hurt you from now on!
Veer : Huh!!??
Garofano ne bahut hi dheere se bola tha. Magar, Veer ke senses tez the. Agar, koi aam insaan hota toh woh sunn nahi paata. Parantu, Veer ne sunn liya tha. Aur, sunane ke baad bhi use apne kaano par vishavaas nahi ho raha tha. Kya Garofano ne wahi kaha tha jo usne abhi abhi suna?
Tabhi, ek baar fir unn gundo ke qadmo ki awaaz Veer ke kaano me padi.
Veer : Ye bewakoof log firse-
Lekin, iske pehle ki woh apni baat poori keh paata, use apne haath par ek chubhan mehsoos hui. Aur, fir sunnata uski baah se uske poore shareer tak fel gayi. Use lakwa maar chuka tha. Veer ka vision dhundhla hone laga, usne apna santulan khoya aur woh peeche ki orr girne laga jaha ek narm, garm aalingan me woh utar gaya.
Veer ne dekha ki Garofano ki goad me woh gir chuka tha.
Veer (shocked) : Y-You-!!!!!????
Garofano : It’s okay! It’s okay! Don’t be scared. Kuch nahi hone waala tumhe. It’s alright, honey!
Veer : !!!???
Garofano : Bas, tumhe ab dakhal dene ki zaroorat nahi, my dear.
Veer upar uthane ki koshish karta hai. Uske gaal Garofano ke lambe reshmi baalo se dhake hue the. Aur, uski anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me bhar rahi thi.
Veer : G-Garofano-!!! Why-!!? Ugh-!! Y-You-!!!
Garofano (concerned) : Don’t look at me like that honey! Aur, mujhe Violet keh ke pukaaro please~ Call me informally! Don’t worry! Tumhe kuch nahi hoga. I just want you to be silent.
Veer : W-When did you-???
Badle me Garofano bas muskurayi. Aur, Veer ko turant samajh aa gaya ki uske saath kya hua.
Pichle dwaar se bhaagte waqt jaise hi Garofano ne uski kalaayi thaami thi...!!!
Wahi woh waqt tha jab usne apni ek chhoti si needle uski kalaayi me ghop di thi.
Garofano (smiles) : Mein hamesha tab hamla karti hu jab mere shikaar ko iski sabse kam umeed hoti hai, Veer. Jab woh mujh par sabse zyada bharosa karte hai aur mujhse pyaar karte hai.
Veer : Y-You-!!!
Garofano : Paralysis toxin!!! Mera apna banaya gaya toxin hai. Chaah ke bhi tum ise neutralize nahi kar sakte. *smiles* After all, system ki shop me tumhe iske liye koi skill nahi milegi. Iska cure sirf mera hi anti-toxin hai.
Veer (frowns) : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Mujhe pata tha tum hi ho woh- Y-You were the only one I was yearning for, Veer. No!! My honey!!
Veer : ??
Garofano : Pehle mujhe shaq bhi tha. Kya tum woh insaan hoge bhi ya nahi? Mene itni umeed nahi rakhi thi tumse. P-Par- Tum meri umeedo ke vipreet hi nikle Veer. Tum itne imaandar, bhaavuk… Yaha tak ki itne bhole the ki system holders ki parvah kar baithe? Fufu~ Tum sach me kamaal ho. Aur, isliye mein jald se jald tumhari taraf khichti chali gayi.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mene pehle socha tha ki agar tum mere raaste me aaye, aur tum woh vyakti na nikle jaisa maine socha tha… Toh, mein apne raaste se tumhe hamesha hamesha ke liye alag kar dene waali thi. Of course, abhi bhi tum mera target ho. *smiles* Farq sirf itna hai ki iss baar mein tumhe apne tareeqe se apne paas rakhna chaahti hu.
Veer (frowns) : Wh-What-!!? What do you want-!!?
Garofano : Maine kaha na Veer!
Veer : ??
Garofano : I won’t let you get hurt anymore.
Itna bol woh Veer ko apni goad me uthaayi. Scene ekdum hi alag tha. Ek princess carry me aksar ek ladka ek ladki ko iss tarah uthaata tha par, yaha Garofano Veer ko iss tarah se uthaayi hui thi. Uske chehre se muskaan hatne ka naam nahi le rahi thi.
Veer ko thaame woh sakri galiyo ki gehrayiyo me chalti gayi. Ek sabse chhipe hue kone ko dhoondh usne dheere se Veer ko neeche baithaya.
Woh uski orr jhuki aur uske labo ke paas aayi.
Garofano (smiles) : You just have to wait here. Okay, honey? I’ll settle this quickly.
Aur, neeche jhuk ek jhatke me usne Veer ke honth apne hontho ki giraft me bhar liye.
“Nnnnn~”
Ek siski Garofano ke muh se nikli. Aur, tabhi-
*Ding*
[You have been rewarded 1000 Points.]
Veer ke mann me ek notification ki ghanti baj uthi. Veer, inn points ko enjoy karne ki sthiti me nahi tha. Parantu,
Garofano : Ahhh~!!!
Garofano jhatka lete hue Veer ke hontho se alag hui. Zaahir hai, notification use bhi praapt hua tha.
Garofano (blushes) : W-Wait-!! You get points for this too??? K-Kya aisa isliye hai kyuki hum dono system holders hai? M-My god-!!
Veer toh ye pehle se hi jaanta tha. Pari ne use bata ke rakha tha ki jitni badi hasti ladki hogi, jitni behtar woh hogi uss hisaab se system use ladki ke sang intimate hone par points dega. Ye pehli baar tha jab Veer ne kisi system holder ladki ke hontho ko chooma tha.
Aur, Garofano ka iska na pata hona saaf darshata tha ki woh iss baat se anibhigya tha. Jiska kaaran sirf ek hi tha~
Usne kabhi bhi kisi aur mard ke saath koi bhi intimate relationship nahi rakha tha. Zaahir tha ki woh iss nayi khoj se poori tarah hairan thi. Saath hi kuch excited bhi.
*Skrrrrrrrrrrr*
Agle hi pal usne Veer ki shirt ko pakad ke kheecha aur shirt beech se fatati chali gayi. Saari buttons toot ke bikhar gayi.
Garofano (leans further) : Th-Then kya hoga agar-!? *smiles* Agar hum aur aage badhe, honey???
Uska haath Veer ke nange seene par firta hua upar jaane laga. Veer ke badan par ruye khade ho gaye. Ek sihran uski poore shareer me fel gayi.
Par, punah qadmo ki awaaz ne Garofano ke mood ko kharab kar diya.
Garofano : Jab ye sab khatam ho jayega. Mein tumhe apne saath leke chalungi, Veer. Wait for me here~
Veer chhaya me bina kisi sahayta ke bas laita hua dekhta raha jab tak ki Garofano gali se baahar nahi nikal gayi.
Aur, use kuch pal baad turant hi baahar ki awazein spasht roop se sunayi dene lagi.
Ethan : Hahahaha! Dekho zara kaun aaya hai. Arre? Woh ladka kaha hai? Lagta hai tumko chorr ke darr ke bhaag gaya. Hmm?
Garofano : Bhaag gaya? Hmph! He never runs away. Balki, tumhe apne baare me socha chahiye.
Ethan : Kya bakwaas hai? Nahi! Tumse yaha baat karna bewakoofi hai. Jao pakdo use!!
Halaki, thodi derr ki khamoshi ke baad, kuch bhaari gad-gadahat zameen par goonj gayi. Jaise maano kayi insaan neeche zameen par gir gaye ho. Aur, fir kisi ki ek kamzor kaapti hui awaaz aayi-
“Y-Ye kaise ho sakta hai? Ye ek ladki???”
Ethan ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi. Woh dehshat me chillaya.
Ethan : Y-Ye-!? Ye kaise-!? Kaise sambhav hai?
Garofano : Maine tumhe waqai me halke me le liya tha Ethan. Mujhe nahi laga tha ki tumhari tarah ek pyaada mujhe itni pareshaniya dega.
Ethan : ???
Garofano : Tum aur tumhara bhai dono hi mere shikaar the. Choonki, tumhare zariye maine Mr. Nicholson ko marwa hi diya. Ab baari aati hai tumhari- Right? *smiles*
Ethan (shocked) : M-Mere se marwaya-!?? K-Kya matlab hai tumhara?
Garofano bas muskurayi.
Ethan (screams) : M-Matlab woh tum thi jisne ye afwaah felayi thi ki jaydaad ka batwara hone waala hai???
Garofano (smiles) : Lagta hai tum itne bhi bewaqoof nahi, Ethan!
Poori gali me ek shaanti chhaa gayi.
Aur, iske baad Veer ko ek aur shareer ke girne ki dhamak mehsoos hui. Chand seconds ke baad hi, Garofano dobaara uske saamne haazir thi. Uske hontho par muskaan wesi hi feli hui thi.
Veer (frowns) : T-Tum-!? Iska matlab tum?
Woh hasi. Usne Veer ko punah apni goad me uthaya jaise maano Veer uska chhota beta ho. Use pyaar se apni baaho me liye woh alley ke baahar nikalne lagi.
Garofano : Kya soch rahe ho, Veer? Kya kuch kehna nahi hai?
Veer (growls) : So, it was you-!???
Garofano (smiles) : Of course! Aur, kaun ho sakta hai? Charles Nicholson aur Ethan Nicholson dono hi mere shikaar the. Khaas kar Charles Nicholson!!
Garofano ne apne rang aise badle the jaise girgit badalti thi. Kaha woh 'Dad-Dad' ki ratt lagayi hui thi aur kaha ab woh ye besharmo ki tarah qubool kar rahi thi ki iske peeche uska hi haath tha.
Garofano (frowns) : Mere asli Mom-Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki laparwahi se hi maare gaye the Veer.
Veer : ???
Woh Veer ko baaho me liye aage badhti jaa rahi thi aur apni kahani sunani jaa rahi thi.
Garofano : Mere Mom Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki ek factory me kaam karte the. Factory me aag lagne se unn dono ki jaan chali gayi. Aur, iss haram-zaade ne apne staff ko marne diya tha.
Veer : ??
Veer ko samajh aaya. Iska matlab woh Ryongchon Disaster me Garofano ke maa baap ka marna? Maatra jhooth tha.
Garofano : Iske peeche tab koi gang padi hui thi. Building ki zyada tehqiqaat na ho isliye isne case close kar diya tha. Jitne staff ke log maare gaye, unke baare me koi sawaal na kare isliye sabko ghoos khila ke isne saara maamla rafa dafa karwa diya tha.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Dad? Kaisa Dad? Ye woh aadmi tha jisne baad me unhi mare logo ke parivaar ke anaath logo ke saath shoshan kiya tha. Aur, iska plan toh mujhe bhogna bhi tha. Of course, aisa maine kabhi hone nahi diya.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Khubsoorat hone ke naate Charles mujhe kaise bhi kar ke bhogna chahta tha. Isliye, mujhe apni beti bana ke apne sang le gaya. Aur, tabhi mujhe system bhi mil gaya. Jis cheez ki mujhe talash thi wo mujhe akhir mil hi gayi.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Charles ko apni baato me fusla ke dheere dheere mein uske nirnayo par haawi hone lagi. Mein use apne khud ke banaye gaye sedatives deti jis se woh mere niyantran me rehta tha. Uske mann me maine apni ek atoot chhavi bana li thi. Magar, adanga tha ye Ethan Nicholson.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : Ye China me rehta tha. Lekin, iski poori nazar jaydaad par thi. Ye apne bhai se aur mujhse bhi nafrat karta tha. Mein hi thi woh jisne jaydaad baatne ki afwah felayi thi. Yaha tak ki will ki baat bhi jhooth hai. Mujhe pata tha ki Ethan apne bhai aur fir mujhe maar ke jaydaad par haq jatayega. Isliye, maine afwah fela di ki batwara ho raha hai.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Jabki aisa kuch bhi nahi hone waala tha. Gusse me aake, Ethan ne woh chaal chal hi di jiski mein na jaane kitne samay se aasha kar rahi thi. Ethan ne apne hi bhai ko maar daala. Aur, isi ke saath mera badla bhi poora ho chuka tha. Jaise jaise maine pyaade baithaaye the sabhi ne bilkul wesa hi kaam kiya tha.
Veer : ??
Garofano : Ab baaki tha toh sirf Ethan ke crime ke saboot police ko dena, par tabhi Renshu ne apni taang ada di.
Veer : P-Poison???
Garofano : Huh? Ohh! Of course body me paaya gaya poison mera hi tha. Renshu sach keh raha tha. *smiles* Maine Charles ki body me sui bhi ghopi thi aur poison bhi inject kiya tha. You know? Just to make sure he was dead. Lekin, woh pehle hi adhmara ho chuka tha. Ethan ke aadmiyo ne use pehle hi maar diya tha. I mean... Almost...! Fufu~
Veer (frowns) : A-Alibi-!?
Garofano : Hmm? Ohh? You mean agar mein apni workshop se bahar nahi nikli thi to crime location par pahuch ke woh needle kaise ghusedi? Right? Oh Veer! I'm a system owner. Kya ek system owner darwaze se hi aa jaa sakta hai? I jumped from the terrace. Fufu~
Veer ko ab sab samajh aa raha tha. Sab kuch Garofano ka hi plan tha. Yaha tak ki woh khud ek besahara naari ka vesh-bhusha banaaye khud ko nirdosh jataate hue inn sab ke peeche asli hatyari thi.
Garofano Veer ko car ki taraf le gayi. Veer ne dekha ki kaise sabhi ke sabhi log neeche sadak par behosh pade hue the.
*Click*
Darwaza khol back seat par Garofano ne bade hi komalta se Veer ko litaaya. Veer ka sarr car ke khule darwaze ki taraf tha jaha Garofano khadi hui thi.
Woh jhuki aur uske chehre ko pakad uske nazdeek aayi.
Garofano : But as I said~ I won't let anyone harm you!
Veer : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Iss tarah se mat dekho Veer. Dil dukhta hai. Charles ke saath wahi hua jo wo deserve karta tha. Also, Ethan ko mein nahi dekhungi. Use to police dekh legi. Sab kuch maine audio video sab record kar rakha hai. I have a hidden camera here~
Usne apne shrug ki ek badi si kaali button ki orr ishara karte hue kaha.
Woh muskurate hue jhuki, Veer ke hontho ko punah choomne ke liye par tabhi-
'Huh!!!???'
*Gwakh*
Ek mazboot haath ne uske gale ko daboch liya. Garofano ke hosh udd chuke the. Woh bhaybheet hote hue neeche Veer ko dekhi, jo uske gale ko jakde hue tha.
P-Par ye kaise? Veer hilne dulne ki haalat me nahi tha. Uska paralysis toxin kam se kam 3 ghante tak asardar rehta tha. Aur, toh aur system ki shop me bhi iska koi upaay nahi tha.
Iska upaay ya to yahi tha ki 3 ghante tak intezar kiya jaaye ya fir anti-paralysis toxin ka istemal kiya jaaye jiski vidhi sirf aur sirf uske hi paas thi.
Garofano ke paseene chooth rahe the. Veer ke chehre par koi bhaav nahi the. Aur, fir usne bolna shuru kiya.
Garofano : V-Veer-!? T-Tum-!?
Veer : Mein jaanta tha shuru se hi ki ye sab tumhara dhong tha.
Garofano : Ahh!??
Veer : Kyuki, poison sirf tumhare aur Renshu ke paas tha. Renshu khud hi body me poison dalwa ke mujhe autopsy ki report nahi bhejega. Isme koi shaq nahi tha ki body me poison tha. Aur woh poison do hi logo se aa sakta tha. Renshu and you!!!
Garofano : Ughh! Th-That's-!
Veer : Erica aur Renshu ka meri itni madad karna wahi dusri orr tumhara mere nazdeek aana, khul ke saari details bhi na dena aur sach ko chhipana. I already saw through it.
Garofano : T-To s-say such a thing-
Veer (smiles) : I was just seeing how far you will go.
Garofano (frowns) : K-Kaise-!? I knew I-
Veer (smiles) : You pricked me? Are you sure? *grins* Kya waqai tumhari sui meri kalaayi me dhasi thi?
Garofano : Urggh!!
Gale par Veer ki pakad mazboot ho rahi thi. Par, Garofano bas uski kalaayi ko thaami thi. Virodh nahi kar rahi thi.
Garofano : I-I... I did-!!
Veer ne tabhi apni shirt ki wrist ki button kholi aur usme se ek eraser jaisa kuch baahar nikal ke gira, jise dekh Garofano ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi.
Veer : Tumhari needle meri skin me nahi iss kneadable rubber eraser me ghusi thi. And you thought- *grins*
Paansa palat chuka tha. Jaha pehle Garofano poori tarah se Veer par haawi thi aur soch rahi thi ki sab kuch uske plan ke hisaab se hi gaya parantu, ab drishya ekdum ulta tha. Ab woh khud Veer ke qabze me thi.
Garofano (shocked) : Wh-When did you-!?
Veer (smiles) : You don't need to know that.
Veer ne agle hi shan use ek baar me chorr diya. Garofano apne gale ko pakadte hue peeche hui aur lambi lambi saansein lene lagi. Veer abhi bhi usi tarah araam se car me leta hua tha aur iss baar wo tha jo muskura ke use dekh raha tha.
Garofano : T-Tumbe mujhe... Yuhi chorr diya?
Veer (smiles) : I believe you!
Garofano : Huh?
Veer : Because I know you won't hurt me.
Badle me woh bhi muskurayi. Punah uski orr aage aayi. Veer shan bhar ke liye sachet hua par jab uske tapte garam honth aake Veer ke hontho par lage toh woh kuch kehne ki haalat me hi na raha.
*Kiss*
Ek chhoti si hi kiss thi. Khud ko dur ko Garofano muskurayi. Itna sab hone ke baad bhi woh Veer ko kiss karne se peeche nahi hatt rahi thi. Chand pal pehle hi Veer ne uske gale ko jakad rakha tha.
Garofano : Tumhe yaha se jaana chahiye Veer. Mujhe ye sab settle karne me ek din kam se kam lagega hi lagega. Zyada bhi lag sakta hai. Toh mein mine ke matter ke liye tumhare saath nahi aa paungi. I'm sorry. But tum jaante ho ki mujh par bhi sanctions lage hai. Inn dino mein busy rehne waali hu.
Veer : Got it!!
Woh tabhi daud ke apni workshop me gayi aur ek packet baahar leke aayi.
Veer : What's this?
Garofano (smiles) : It's a shirt! Meri taraf se. Tumhare liye. It's all black!!!
Veer : Ohh? Thanks, I guess?
Garofano uski collor pakad use kheench ke uske kaan ko apne labo tak laayi aur fir haule se boli,
Garofano : Mine ke matter ke liye, Renshu tumhare saamne do prastaav rakhega Veer. Pehla ki tribal logo ki territory me jaana aur ladna. Aur, dusra ki seedha Legion ke Head Jaw Long ke paas jaana aur usko khatam karna.
Veer : ???
Garofano : And if you're smart enough. Then, you know what to choose right? Galti se bhi Jaw Long se ladne ke liye khud ko aage mat karna. Your safety is important. Mein aas paas nahi rahungi, so I won't be able to help you out.
Veer : I know what to do. Don't worry!
Garofano (frowns) : Veer please~!!! Jaw Long se ladne tum nahi jaoge. Kya tum khud ki safety ke baare me nahi soch sakte? Tumhari family bhi hai. Don't take risks.
Veer : I know!
Garofano (nods) : Mein jald hi aaungi. Till then... Take care...!
Woh Veer ke gaal par haath ferr waha se nikal gayi. Zaahir hai usne police ko call kar diya tha. Aur, sab kuch police ko saupne waali thi. Ethan ab chaah ke bhi iss se baahar nahi aa sakta tha.
Toh wahi Veer Renshu ki car leke wapas uske ghar ke liye nikal chuka tha.
Car me hi uske mission ki notification uske dimag me goonj chuki thi.
*Ding*
['Mission : Unmask the culprit' has been completed.]
[You have been rewarded 3000 points.]
Veer ne case ko handle karne se pehle hi Intelligence 10 points se badha liya tha. Woh jaanta tha ki yaha pe dimaag ke ghode daudaane ki zaroorat thi. Aur, woh extra 10 intelligence ne hi aaj use bacha liya tha.
Woh aage aane waale dino ke baare me sochta hua gaadi sarpat raaste par daudata chala gaya.
***
Mumbai...
Kaera's home...
Night ~ 10:12 PM
Ghar me jhunjhlate hue aaj pehli baar Kaera apne kamre me aayi. Uske iss ravaiyye se ghar me maujood kaam karne waala saara staff hairaan tha.
Aisa aam taur par nahi hota tha. Kabhi kabhi hi woh log Miss Kaera ko gusse me dekh paate the.
Julia jo ki Kaera ke kamre me saaf safaayi hi kar rahi thi, apni Miss ko gusse me aate dekh thodi aashcharya me reh gayi.
Usne dekha ki peeche peeche Karan bhi aaya hua tha.
Julia : Eh!??
Kaera aate hi bistar par baith gayi. Aur, apni aankhein band kar na jaane kin vicharo me leen ho gayi.
Julia : I-Is something the matter? Master Karan?
Karan : A-Actually, hua ye ki... Jis company se hamari deal hone waali thi. Woh company achanak hi Elite Motors se deal kar li. Aur, Elite Motors... You know very well...! Sonia di-!!!
Julia : Ahh! I see!
Karan : Dii ka kehna hai ki Ruchika dii ne kuch gadbad kar di. Kyuki, Ruchika dii ne jaisa bataya tha aur jaisa plan kiya tha wesa kuch hua nahi. Balki, Elite Motors ne woh sab pehle hi kar diya tha. Mujhe nahi pata ki unn logo ne ye kaise kiya. Kaise deal dii ke haatho se leli... But, kuch gadbad hamari hi taraf se hui hai, I think.
Julia : I see!
Karan : Dii ka dhyaan rakhna Julia please. She's mad right now.
Julia (smiles) : Don't worry Master Karan.
Karan itna bol waha se nikal gaya. Parantu, Kaera ka mood aise hi sahi nahi hone waala tha. Kabhi aisa nahi hua tha. Upar se Sonia-!!!!
Kaera : Where's Veer Julia?
Veer ki jankari ikhatta karne ka kaam Kaera ne Julia ko hi saupa tha. Julia sirf maid nahi thi. Uske neeche bhi maids thi jo uske liye kaam karti thi. Woh maids jo ghar se leke baahar ke kaamo me bhi maahir thi.
Julia : You keep pushing him away. Why would he care?
Kaera : Wh-What!??? A-Aisa kab hua? Maine kab use khud se dur kiya?
Julia : When was the last time you had a beautiful chat with him?
Kaera : I-
Woh maun reh gayi. Use waqai yaad nahi tha ki akhiri baar Veer ke sang baith ke usne kab baat-cheet ki thi.
Julia : I keep telling you, young miss!
Kaera (glances) : Huh?
Julia : Do you know what's the meaning of a 'good woman'?
Kaera : A good woman?
Julia : A good woman never points out the unnecessary flaws of her partner. A woman's role is to support her man.
Kaera : Huh?
Julia : You are someone who can make Young Master Veer feel like a king just by being beside him. That's what a good woman does. She can boost the confidence of her man no matter what the situation remains.
Kaera : M-Mein jaanti hu but-
Julia : A good woman will never say 'You are lucky to have me.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Mein aisi nahi hu Julia. H-How can I-!?
Julia : A good woman will never say 'Earn more money.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Maine kab?
Julia : You did it indirectly. Weren't you the one who told me you want Young Master Veer to become more rich in order to have you?
Kaera : Ahh-! N-No-! You misunderstood Julia!
Julia : And lastly...
Kaera : Huh???
Julia : A good woman is never too busy for her partner. When she's asking the whereabouts of her partner from her maid...! That explains everything!
Kaera (frowns) : J-Julia-!!!
Kaera pehle se hi pareshan thi. Upar se Julia ne uske dil par ghaat aur pahucha di thi. Kintu, Julia ne jo kuch bhi kaha tha woh apne dil se aur sach hi kaha tha.
Julia Kaera ko akela chhor baahar jaane lagi par jaate jaate woh darwaze ki dehleez par ruki,
Julia : Please! Take down your mask, young miss. You don't need any mask in front of Young Master Veer.
Kaera : I-
Julia : This time you lost just the deal. If you keep behaving like this... You might lose Young Master Veer himself.
Kaera : Huh!????
Aur, itna bol Julia waha se ravana ho gayi. Reh gayi toh bas Kaera aur uski aankhon se behte aasu.

Ab tak...
Ek chammach udte hue uss sui ki doguni raftaar se aage aayi aur seedhe sui se takra gayi. Sui aur chammach aapas ki matbhed me ghoomte hue idhar udhar jaa gire.
*Ding*
[Intimidating Presence has been equipped.]
Iss se pehle ki Garofano aur Renshu punah ek dusre ke upar focused ho paate-
*Whooooosssshhhh*
Ek haath ne unn dono ke haath ko baari baari mazboot jakad me thaam liya. Aur, koi unn dono ke beech aa gaya.
“Tum me se ab kisi aur ne fir haath uthaaya…! Toh accha nahi hoga.”
Ab aage...
Khamoshi!
Kamre ke andar 4 system holders maujood the magar uske bawajood waha sannaata fela hua tha. Erica ekdum stabdh, ankhein chaudi aur muh khole wahi murti ki tarah jami hui khadi thi.
Sab kuch palak jhapakte hue tha. Garofano ka iss tarah hamla karna ek hairaani waali baat toh thi hi par uss se bhi zyada hairaangi use Veer ko unn dono ke beech khade unn dono ko thaame hue dekh ke hui thi.
Idhar Garofano Veer ko pehli nazar me dekh ke chaunki thi. Akhir Veer yaha kya kar raha tha? Magar, use turant hi agle pal ye dhyaan aa gaya ki Casa Belle me usne uss raat Veer ke sang baat ki thi. Zaahir hai Veer yaha uss card ki wajah se aaya tha.
Card toh use bhi praapt hua tha. Par, aaj wo yaha madad karne ke liye nahi aayi thi. Uske iraade toh kuch aur hi the.
Uski aankhon par hare rang ki parat chadhi hui thi. Aur, andhere me wo aankhein aisi prateet ho rahi thi jaise maano ek saanp jhaadiyo me chhipe apne shikaar ko ghoor raha ho.
Woh Veer ko dekhi aur utne hi gusse me boli,
Garofano : Veeeeer!!! Beech me se hatt jao. Ye mere aur Renshu ke beech ka maamla hai. Tumhara isme koi role nahi hai. Get lost!!!
Veer : Role ho chaahe na ho. Now that I'm here...! I won't let you guys fight each other.
Garofano (frowns) : Tch!!! Veeeerr!!!
Iss baar Veer ki aankhein gusse me Garofano ke upar padi.
Veer : STAY PUT!!!
Aur jaise Intimidating Presence ne apna kaam kar diya. Veer ki aankhon ko dekh ek sihran Garofano ki poore badan me fel gayi. Aisa ehsaas hua ki agar usne Veer ki baat nahi maani toh zaroor kuch galat ghatit ho jayega.
Uski pakad apne aap dheeli ho gayi. Woh neeche ki orr dekhi. Apne iraado ko wo badal chuki thi. Haar maante hue usne khud ko dheela chorr diya. Aur, idhar Veer ne use aisa karte dekh uski kalaayi bhi chorr di.
Magar, uss par se dhyaan nahi hataaya. Woh dekh raha tha ki kahi Garofano fir se hamla toh nahi karegi. Par, Garofano ki aankhon se hare rang ki parat bhi ab chhat chuki thi.
Garofano : H-He-!! He was the one-!!!
Veer ne idhar Renshu ki kalaayi bhi chorr di. Woh Garofano ki orr muda. Haath choothate hi Renshu ne apne sarr ke temple par se paseene ki boond ko alag kiya. Use kuch anubhooti hui. Ye ladka...! Veer...!
Apni kalaayi ko usne dekha. 4 ungliyo ke nishaan uski kalaayi par chhaap chorr gaye the. Nishaan aisa ki uske utne hisse ki twacha andar dabb chuki thi.
Apni daadhi ko malte hue woh Veer ko gaur se dekhne laga. Toh wahi idhar Garofano ka virodh ekdum hi khatam ho chuka tha.
Garofano : S-Sirf tumhare liye Veer-!! M-Mein khud ko shaant kar rahi hu. Warna mein-
Erica : Warna mein? Warna mein kya? Ye tumhara playground nahi hai madam ki jab chaaha tab chali aayi aur-
Garofano ki nigaahein agle hi shan Erica par padi. Aankhein punaah chatak hari ho chuki thi. Aur, bolte bolte Erica beech me hi rukk gayi. Maathe par ghabrahat ki lakeere chhaa gayi. Gale me atka thook nigalte hue woh aage kuch na bol saki. Aur, Garofano dobara se wapas normal ho gayi.
Woh ahista ahista chalte hue deewaar ke paas gayi. Aur, jin sui ko usne feka tha unhe deewar me se baari baari nikaalne lagi. Saari sui deewar me dhass chuki thi.
Veer : Koi kuch batayega ki ye sab chal kya raha hai? Garofano? Renshu?
Veer ke prashn par Garofano turant palti. Uski aankhon me firse krodh tha.
Garofano : Tum apne iss pyaare dost se kyu nahi puchte Veer?
Uska ishara Renshu ki orr tha.
Garofano : Pucho iss se ki isne kya kiya hai. T-Tumhe pata hai mein abhi kaha se aa rahi hu?
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : Jail se!!!
Veer : What???
Garofano : That's right! Jail se bhaag ke aa rahi hu.
Veer : Tum jail me kya kar rahi thi?
Garofano : Pucho iss se. Ye batayega tumhe!
Veer ne jaise hi Renshu ki orr dekha toh Renshu sakhti me unn sab ko hi ghoor raha tha.
Renshu : Iski bakwas baato me aane ki zaroorat nahi hai Veer. Ye Jail gayi thi kyuki isne murder kiya hai. Aur, lagta hai hume ise pakad ke wapas police ko saupna padega.
Woh aage do qadam jaise hi badhaaya, Garofano ke haatho me punah ek lambi sui aa gayi. Hamle ke liye taiyaar,
Garofano (glares) : Then try me you fucker...!
Erica : Y-You-!!!
Veer (shouts) : SHUT UP!!!!
*Silence*
Ek baar fir khamoshi chha gayi. Veer ne ek gehri lambi saans li.
Veer : Koi bhi nahi ladega. Renshu!!! I want to hear your side first.
Renshu : Isme bataane waala kuch nahi Veer. Sach tumhare saamne hai. Mr. Nicholson ki abhi haal hi me hatya hui hai.
Veer : Mr. Nicholson!? Jab mein yaha aa raha tha tab maine radio me iss news ke baare me suna tha.
Renshu (nods) : Hmm! Toh mujhe aur vistaar se samjhaane do Veer. Mr. Nicholson darasal Korea ke ek bahut bade business man the. Unka aana jaana China me laga rehta tha kyuki unka jitna business waha hai, utna hi yaha bhi.
Veer : I see!
Renshu : Lekin 3 din pehle hi unki laash paayi gayi thi. Aur isme koi shaq nahi ki unhe kisne maara hai. Autopsy ki report par pata chala ki maut ko sunishchit karne ke liye ek poison inject kiya gaya tha. Aur, aisa poison kisi ne kabhi nahi dekha hai. Ye naye kism ka poison tha.
Veer : Naye kism ka!?
Renshu : Hmm! Aisa poison jo ek system owner hi bana sakta hai.
Kehte hue Renshu ki nazre Garofano par gayi. Aur, Garofano use iss tarah apni orr ghoorte paa kar dekh gusse me gurraayi.
Garofano (glares) : Tsk!!
Renshu : Aur, ab asli sach suno Veer. Mr. Nicholson Garofano ke pita the. Isne apne hi pita ko maara hai.
Garofano (screams) : Ye jhooth hai-!!!
Renshu (shouts) : Yahi sach hai!!!
Veer : !!??
Renshu : Veer!! Ye ladki kisi bhi hadd tak jaa sakti hai. Tum wo sui dekh rahe ho? Uske haatho me?? Zara dhyaan se dekho unhe. Unki nok ko...!
Renshu ki baat par Veer ne apni nazre daudayi aur Garofano ke haatho me maujood unn sui ki nok ko usne dekha.
*Tip*
'Huh!!??'
Aur use abhaas hua. Sui par se geele padaarth ki ek boond fisalte hue neeche zameen par giri.
Poison!!!
Renshu : Dekha na Veer? Yahi wo poison hai. Iss zeher ki vidhi sirf iss ladki ke paas hai. Yahi zeher Mr. Nicholson ke shareer me paaya gaya tha.
Veer : Ohh!?
Renshu : Mujhe aur samjhaane ki zaroorat nahi hai Veer. Samajhdar ko ishara kaafi hai. Jo zeher sirf ye ladki bana sakti hai, wahi zeher agar Mr. Nicholson ke shareer me paaya gaya hai toh iska kya matlab hua? Kya tumhe ab bhi samajh nahi aa raha? Ya fir ye kahe ki ek system owner ko kisi ne murkh bana diya?
Garofano (growls) : You liar-!!!!
Veer duwidha me fass chuka tha. Renshu saaf saaf uske saamne sab kuch rakh raha tha. Isme koi shaq nahi tha ki autopsy ki report jo Renshu ne batayi thi, agar Mr. Nicholson ke shareer me Garofano ka poison paaya gaya tha aur saath hi wahi poison wo apni sui par laga ke chalti thi. Toh 90% chances the ki hatya Garofano ne hi ki thi. Lekin, batayi gayi report jhoothi bhi toh ho sakti thi. Renshu jhooth bhi toh bol sakta tha.
Veer aankhein moond ke kisi bhi faisle par nahi utarna chaahta tha. Ek pal ke liye uske badan me ek sihran daud gayi. Garofano ke baare me use nayi jankari praapt hui thi.
Woh ek naye kism ka zeher bhi bana sakti thi? Sui par uss zeher ko lagana aur unse vaar karna. Ye ek alag kism ka ladne ka tareeka tha. Jitna ye alag tha utna hi jaanleva bhi. Use yaad aaya ki kuch derr pehle wahi hamla uske upar hua tha. Kismat acchi thi jo woh sui uske shareer me nahi jaa paayi. Warna-
[She's interesting.]
Pari ki awaaz uske mann me aayi. Woh bhi Garofano ko parakh rahi thi.
Veer : Tumhe ye sab kaise pata chala Renshu? Autopsy ki report bhala tumhare haath kaise lagi? Aur, tum ye kaise keh sakte ho ki Garofano ne hi hatya ki hai? Kya tum koi reason de sakte ho ki Garofano ne apne hi pita ko kyu maara?
Veer ne aise sawaal rakhe jinse kaafi kuch haath lag sakta tha. Ab dekhna ye tha ki Renshu kya jankari deta hai.
Renshu (sighs) : Veer! Autopsy ki report ke baare me jaanana koi badi baat nahi hai. Tum bhi ek system owner ho. Maine Erica ko bheja tha report haasil karne ke liye. Ye pata lagaane ke liye ki Mr. Nicholson ke shareer me wo zeher kis prakaar ka tha.
Veer : Aur Erica ko tumne kyu bheja?
Renshu : Kyuki, mein pehle se jaanta tha Veer ki Mr. Nicholson Garofano ke pita hai. Ab agar ekdum se unki hatya ho jaaye aur wo bhi aise zeher se jiske baare me aadmi jaanta na ho toh kya tumhare andar shaq nahi paida hoga? Mere andar bhi hua tha. Isliye maine Erica ko bheja tha.
Veer : Hmm! Aur tumhara ye kehna ki Garofano ne hi hatya ki hai?
Renshu : Bilkul! Iske alawa aur kaun ho sakta hai? Mera Mr. Nicholson se koi lena dena nahi hai. Na hi Erica ka. Na hi tumhara. Aur na hi Tribal Leader Jaw Long ka. Toh kaun bachta hai system owner me? Ye ladki!!!
Veer : Kya reason de sakte ho tum mujhe? Kyu maara Garofano ne?
Renshu : Sampatti Veer!!! Athaay sampatti!! Itni sampatti ki tum note ki gaddiyo ka ek mahal banwa lo. Balki, aur zyaada. Laalach acche accho ko galat kaam karne ke liye majboor kar deta hai.
Veer : Really? Paisa?
Renshu : Will Veer! Harr Ameer insaan apni ek will bana ke jaata hai. Mr. Nicholson ki maut ke baad ye sab kuch charcha me hai ki unki ek will bhi thi.
Veer : Kaisi will?
Renshu : Yahi ki unki saari sampatti, unki beti ko jaati hai. Par, will bhala kis kaam ki? Agar, insaan zinda bana rahe toh? Isliye, isne apne hi pita ka qatl kar diya.
Veer : Really? Just for some money? I don't think-
Renshu : Ek toh yeh kaaran ho sakta hai. Dusra kuch aur bhi ho sakta hai Veer. Jise hum dono hi nahi jaante. Lekin, mein daave ke saath keh sakta hu ki hatya isi ladki ne ki hai.
Garofano (screams) : Jhoooootthhh!!!
Veer : Hmm??
Garofano : V-Veer-! Dekho ise! Dekho kaise baato ko manipulate kar raha hai. Asli baatein toh isne tumhe bataayi hi nahi. Isne apni kartoote toh tumhe bataayi hi nahi Veer.
Veer : Huh???
Garofano (shouts) : Agar mujhe pata hota ki tum itne bade waale dagabaaz aadmi nikloge ki meri hi peeth par chhura ghopoge toh maine tumhe woh sui kabhi di hi nahi hoti-!!!
Veer : Sui??
Garofano : Haan! Veer, yaad hai jab hum pehli baar mile the?
Veer : Casa Belle me...
Garofano : Hmm! Maine tumse iss Renshu ke baare me zikr kiya tha.
Veer (nods) : Hmm!
Garofano : Mein iss aadmi se pehle hi mil chuki thi. Aur, tab maine ek tohfe ke roop me ise apni khud ki banaayi gayi kuch sui saunpi thi. Saath hi zeher ki ek sheeshi bhi.
Veer ne turant hi Renshu ki orr dekha,
Veer : Kya ye sach hai?
Renshu (nods) : Hmm!!
Ye baat toh Renshu ne nahi bataayi abhi. Iska matlab kuch chhipaaya jaa raha tha!?
Garofano : Maine ye soch ke ise woh di thi ki ye aadmi shayad hamari tarah ek accha insaan hoga. Aur, jo log system ke saath aam logo ko nuksaan pahucha rahe hai, unhe khatam karne me hamari madad karega. Lekin, mein galat thi.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Tum khud socho Veer. Police akhir mere ghar tak kaise aa gayi? Agar, maine hi hatya ki hoti. Toh mein koi saboot kyu chorrti waha? Kya mujh me itni aqal bhi nahi hai? Police ke paas saboot tha. Woh sui-!!! Woh zeher waali sui police ne mere pita ki body se baramad ki thi. Agar maine hi unhe maara hota toh mein woh sui unke shareer me kyu chorrti Veer??
Veer : That's-!!!
Garofano (gusse me) : Kuch samajh aaya? Police ko jo sui mili ye wahi sui thi jo maine iss bastard ko di thi-!!
Erica (gusse me) : Zubaan sambhaal ke-!!!!
Garofano : Apne Dad se kaho ki pehle ek accha insaan bane. Uske baad dusro ke upar ungli uthaana-!
Erica : Y-You-!!!
Garofano : Veer!!! Isi ne mere pita ke shareer me woh sui ghop ke wahi chorr di thi. Meri harr sui par mera naam 'Garofano' guda hota hai. Bahut bareek hota hai. Isne usi baat ka faayda uthaaya. Isne mujhe fasaaya hai Veer. Trust me-!!!
Veer abhi kuch soch hi raha tha ki tabhi uski yaad-daasht ne use kuch yaad dilaaya. Woh pal jab woh Renshu se pehli baar mila tha.
Andhere se bhari samundar ke nazdeek uss gufa me jab woh ghaayal pada hua tha. Renshu ko Crimson samajh usne uss par hamla kar diya tha. Tab-
Tab Renshu ne kahi se ek 15cm kareeb lambi ek sui nikaali thi aur seedhe uski aankhon ki putliyo se 1 inch duri par tika di thi.
Use ye sab kuch yaad tha. Iska matlab-!! Woh sui-!!! Woh sui wahi sui thi jo Garofano ne tohfe me Renshu ko di thi. Matlab Garofano sach keh rahi thi. Renshu ko usne sui di thi iss baat ko jhutlaya nahi jaa sakta tha.
[Oh my~ It keeps getting better and better. Fufu~]
Garofano : Pucho iss se Veer. Isne hi mere Dad ke shareer me woh sui chorri thi jo maine ise gift ke roop me di thi. He betrayed me.
Veer ne punah Renshu ki orr dekha. Jaise maano uss se sawaal kar raha ho. Aur, Renshu bhi samajh gaya ki Veer akhir kya puchna chaah raha tha.
Renshu (sighs) : Ye sach hai!!
Veer : Huhhh!???
Garofano (smirks) : You fucker-!! Finally you admitted-!!
Renshu : Par ye aadha sach hai Veer.
Veer : Kya matlab?
Renshu : Ye baat sach hai ki Mr. Nicholson ke shareer me dhasi hui jo sui paayi gayi woh wahi sui thi jo Garofano ne mujhe di thi.
Garofano : See? I told you Veer. He was lying.
Renshu : Lekin, iss se ye kaha saabit hota hai ki maine unki hatya ki hai?
Veer : ???
Renshu : Darasal, maine hi Erica ko bheja tha. Erica ne hi woh sui Mr. Nicholson ke shareer me daal ke chorri thi. Baad me police aayi, sui aur zeher ki jaanch kari. Sui me likha 'Garofano' naam unhe pata chala aur unhone Garofano ke ghar me raid kar di. Jaha unhe alag se Garofano ke ghar me sui rakhi mil gayi.
Garofano : That's right-!!! This fucker-!!! Veer!!! Isne na sirf mere Dad ke shareer me wo sui chorri balki-! Isne mere ghar me bhi dusri sui zeher se lipti hui wahi chorri thi. Police ne dono ko match kiya and they concluded- ki- ki mein hi murderer hu. But that's not the case...!!!
Renshu : Hmm! Ye sach hai. Erica hi thi woh.
Garofano (growls) : I fucking knew it-!! Mein jaanti thi ki iske peeche kisi system owner ka haath hai. Your fucking daughter-!!! Stealth skills huh!!? Mujhe andaza tak nahi lag paaya tha ki koi mere ghar me aake gaya hai. So, it was you-!!!
Woh gusse me Erica ki orr dekhi. Veer ki nigaahein bhi Erica par gayi. Sabko apni orr dekhte hue paa ke Erica ne apna chehra mod liya.
Garofano : Tsk!!!
Renshu : Par jaisa ki maine kaha Veer. Ye sirf aadha sach hai. Ab mujhe poora sach bataane do.
Veer : Hmm??
Renshu : Garofano ne theek kaha. Agar, usne murder kiya hota toh woh sui ko kyu chorrti? Right?
Veer (nods) : Hmm!
Renshu : Well, usne theek wesa hi kiya tha Veer. Murder karne ke baad iss ladki ne koi bhi saboot nahi chorra tha. Aur, isliye toh mujhe Erica ko bhejna pada. Yahi kaaran tha jo Erica ne fir woh sui Mr. Nicholson ki body par chorri. Tumko pata hai kyu?
Veer : ???
Renshu (smirks) : Kyuki, Mr. Nicholson ki maut pehle hi iske zeher se ho chuki thi. Sui se vaar kar, unhe maut ke ghaat pe utaar kar Garofano crime scene se faraar ho chuki thi. Woh toh accha tha ki mere paas iski di hui sui maujood thi. Isliye, Erica ne turant hi woh sui unke shareer me chorr di. Saboot iss ladki ne bhale mita diya ho, par maine police ke liye wapas se saboot de diya tha.
Veer (frowns) : That's-!!!
[No fucking way-!!! Hahahahaha!!!]
Harr guzarte pal ye gutthi aur bhi ulajhti jaa rahi thi. Aur, Pari iska poora maza utha rahi thi.
Renshu : Ye ladki bahut chaalbaaz hai Veer. Koi bhi system owner itni badi galti nahi kar sakta. Ye sahi keh rahi thi ki bhala ye apne saboot kyu chorregi? Zaahir hai woh saboot maine chorre the taaki ye pakad me aa sake.
Veer : Meri ek baat samajh nahi aayi. Tumhe kaise pata chala ki Mr. Nicholson ke saath aisa kuch hone waala hai? Aur, sahi waqt par tumne Erica ko bhi bhej diya?
Renshu (sighs) : Because I was keeping tabs on her.
Veer : Huh!!?
Renshu : Veer! Mein tum par vishvaas karta hu. Isliye, tum se kuch nahi chhipaata. Yaad hai jab mein tumhari madad karne aaya tha tab tumne mujhse pucha tha ki bhala mujhe ye kaise pata chala ki tum musibat me ho?
Veer : Haan! Mujhe yaad hai. Aur, tumne kaha tha ki tumhe kisi ka call aaya tha. X!!! Usne tumhe bataya tha.
Renshu : That's right!! Wahi call iss baar mujhe firse aaya tha.
Veer : Huhh!!??
Renshu : Pichli baar jab wo call aaya tha tab wo voice modulated voice thi.
Veer : Modulated voice??
Renshu (nods) : Hmm! Matlab badli hui awaaz. Erica ke paas advanced observation skill hai Veer. Jab uss X ne mujhe pehli baar call kiya tha toh maine wo call record kar li thi. Baad me Erica ne jab woh call recording suni toh usne mujhe bataaya tha ki ye awaaz asli awaaz nahi thi uss insaan ki. Woh insaan koi voice modulation ki skill use kar raha tha.
Veer : !!!??
Renshu : Iss baar kuch din pehle mujhe fir call aaya tha. Lekin, iss baar Erica ne bataya ki awaaz modulated nahi thi. Insaan ki khud ki awaaz thi. Awaaz kisi aurat ki thi. Aur, usne mujh se bas ek hi baat kahi thi~
Veer : ???
Renshu : Ki China me jald hi Korea ke rishte naate tootne waale hai. Nazar rakhna.
Veer : What!!?
Renshu : Korea se sirf Garofano hi hai system owner ke roop me. Mein samajh gaya tha ki kiski baat ho rahi thi. Aur, isliye maine Erica se kaha tha Garofano ke upar nazar rakhne ke liye. Kyuki, jaise hi Mr. Nicholson China kuch din pehle aaye, tabhi mein samajh gaya tha ki kuch gadbad hone waali hai.
Garofano : Wh-What-!!? T-Tum kisi anjaan ke kehne par kuch bhi kar baithoge? A-Are you an idiot!?
Renshu : Uss anjaan ke kehne par hi Veer ki jaan bach paayi thi. Tum ye baat acche se jaante ho Veer.
Veer (frowns) : I-
Renshu : Mein maanta hu ki kisi anjaan vyakti par itna bharosa karna theek baat nahi. Par, hum iss baat ko kaise nazar-andaaz kar sakte hai ki uss X ki wajah se hi Veer tumhari jaan bachi hai. Aur toh aur agar woh phone call na aata toh shayad ye Garofano madam qatl kar ke nikal chuki hoti.
Garofano (screams) : Ye sab jhooth hai-!!! Wh-Why!? Why would I kill my own father!!?
Renshu : Isliye, maine uss X ko bhi ek card bheja tha.
Veer : Whatttt!!??
Renshu : Abhi jo call aaya tha woh aurat-!!! Uska kehna tha ki woh USA se hai.
Veer : USA???
Renshu (nods) : Hmm! Mein chaahta tha ki agar wo waqai hamari side hai, toh woh yaha aaye aur hum uske baare me jaan paaye.
Veer : Kya usne apna naam bataya?
Renshu : Nahi! Par itna zaroor kaha tha ki filhaal woh USA me hai. Aur ye ki mein uski baat ko halke me na lu. Mr. Nicholson waali baat.
Veer : I see!!!
Renshu : Veer! Ab tumhare upar hai. Maine sab kuch tumhare saamne rakh diya hai. Agar tum chaaho toh aur sawaal puch sakte ho.
Garofano : He's lying Veer-!!! Kisi teesre ke kehne par tum kaise bharosa kar sakte ho? Jise tum jaante bhi nahi, jise dekha bhi nahi, jiske iraade bhi nahi jaante...!? Kaise-!? He's fucking lying-!!! T-Trust me Veer!!
Renshu : Veer-!!!
Garofano : Veer-!!!
'Fucking hell-!!!'
[Wahahahaha!!! What an interesting case. I'm loving every single second of it.]
'Shut up Pari! Let me concentrate! Inn dono me se koi ek jhooth bol raha hai.'
[Ya fir dono aadha sach keh rahe hai. Aur aadha jhooth.]
'Fuckkkk!!!!'
[They are waiting for your answer-!!!]
Veer ne dono ko dekha. Dono aas liye use hi dekh rahe the. Aur, dono ki aankhein uss se apeksha kar rahi thi ki woh unki side le.
'Fucking hell-!!! Ye kaha fass gaya mein-!??'
[Hahahahahaha!!!]
Veer ab ek vipda me tha. Aisi sthiti me jaha agar usne kisi galat ka saath galti se de diya toh kahi aisa na ho ki baad me woh zindagi bhar pachtaata rahe.
5 minute tak kamre me shaanti chhaayi rahi. Veer apne vichaaro me leen tha. Kuch sochne ke baad usne nirnay liya. Aur, gehri saans lete hue unn dono ko dekh bola.
Veer : Maine soch liya hai.
Renshu : !!?
Garofano : ???
Veer : Renshu! Garofano Jail se bhaag ke aayi hai. Zaahir hai police uske peeche padi hogi. Mein chaahta hu ki jab tak ye gutthi sulajh nahi jaati, tab tak Garofano yahi sahi salamat rahe. Aur, iss baat ki khabar yaha se baahar na jaane paaye.
Renshu : Whaaaatttt!??
Pal bhar ke liye Garofano ki aankhon me ek chamak dikhi. Uski nazre Veer par hi tiki hui thi. Woh uske chehre me khoyi hui thi.
Veer : Hmm! Sirf ek dusre ke keh dene se ye case solve nahi hone waala. Tum apni orr se dekh rahe ho. Aur, Garofano apni orr se. Mujhe lagta hai kuch missing hai yaha. Mine waala maamla kitni derr tak roka jaa sakta hai?
Renshu : Zyada se zyada 3 din. Kyuki, agar maine koi strategy nahi banayi toh government ki orr se firse koi na koi official aa hi jayega yaha dekhne ke liye ki kuch shuru hua bhi ya nahi. Aur, fir Jaw Long bhi attack kar sakta hai.
Veer : I see! Then, give me 3 days. 3 din ke andar andar... Mein iss gutthi ko suljha dunga.
Renshu : Huh!!!?
Erica : What?? What are you? Sherlock Holmes?? Tumhe pata bhi hai ki chal kya raha hai? H-How can you-
Iss se pehle ki Erica aur kuch Veer ko suna paati, Renshu ne apna haath dikha ke use wahi rok diya. Ek baar fir woh apne Dad ke Veer ke prati iss namr ravaiyye se hairat me reh gayi. Na chaahte hue bhi use khud ko rokna pada. Par, bechari Erica Veer ke intelligence se parichit nahi thi.
Veer ki nazre unfocused thi. Uska dimaag ab alag dhang se kaam kar raha tha. Ab uss Veer ke baahar aane ka samay tha jis Veer ne House of the Killers ki gutthi suljhayi thi.
Veer : Mein ye bhi chaahta hu ki tum meri madad karo Renshu. I will handle this case from now on. Aur, sach ko saamne laa ke rakhunga.
Renshu kuch shan tak Veer ko dekhta raha. Woh use parakh raha tha. Veer ki aankhein sab kuch bayaan kar rahi thi ki woh kitna serious tha iss matter ko leke.
Veer : Mine waale matter ko filhaal ke liye hold par rakhna hoga. Iss gutthi ko pehle suljhaana zaroori hai. Aur, Garofano-!!!
Garofano : H-Huh!?
Veer : Agar tum nirdosh saabit hoti ho. Toh mein chaahta hu ki tum mine waale matter me hamari madad karo-!!
Garofano : What!!?? Ye jaante hue bhi ki isi ne mujhe fasaaya hai, mein baad me iski madad bhi karu-!?
Veer : Please-!!!
Iss baar Garofano ne jaise hi Veer ki aankhon ko padha. Uska virodh apne aap samaapt ho gaya.
Garofano : F-Fine-! J-Just for your sake.
Veer (smiles) : That settles it. Then, mujhe kuch samay chahiye Garofano se baat karne ke liye. Garofano! Come with me-!!!
Garofano (nods) : Umm!
Erica : What? Hey Mister!!! Ye tumhara park nahi hai okay? This is my home!! Aur, tum yaha pe bina permission ke khud se charge nahi le sakte. You hear me? I-
Par, ek baar firse Renshu ne use haath dikha ke beech me hi rok diya.
Erica : D-Dad-!??
Renshu : Veer jo bhi madad maangta hai, use wo dena.
Erica : B-But-!
Renshu : No questions!!
Erica (sarr jhukaate hue) : Y-Yes!!
Idhar Veer aur Garofano kamre ke baahar nikal hi rahe the jab peeche se Erica ne awaaz lagaayi,
Erica : Waitttt-!!
Uske rokne par dono Veer aur Garofano palat ke use dekhe.
Erica : Our men-!! Tumne unke saath kya kiya? Jab tumne hamla kiya tab hamara ek bhi aadmi shor sunn ke yaha nahi aaya. What did you do to them??
Garofano : Hmph~!! They are fine! Bas, behosh hai. Go and have a look if you don't believe me.
Erica (mutters) : You will regret this bitch-!!
*Whoooshhhh*
Erica ek jhatke me waha se gaayab hui, aur baahar ki orr nikal gayi.
Jagah jagah Renshu ke saare aadmi behoshi ki haalat me dale hue the.
Usne railing ke paas khade hote hue neeche aangan me nazre daudayi. Sab ke sab behosh the. Koi bhi ghayal nahi tha.
'You will regret this-!! Dad ki insult-!! I will see you later Garofano!!'
Idhar, Veer aur Garofano punah baahar ki orr apna rukh karte ki peeche se iss baar Renshu ne unhe rok diya.
Renshu : Veer!!!
Veer (turns) : Hmm?
Renshu ne apne jaanvar ki khaal se bani uss odhni ko khola aur usme se ek kaagaz nikaalte hue Veer ki orr kiya,
Renshu : Ye Mr. Nicholson ki autopsy ki report ki ek photocopy hai. Have it!!! You'll need it.
Veer ne uske paas aate hue uske haath se woh kaagaz ka tukda le liya. Aur, Garofano ke sang wo uss kamre se baahar nikal gaya.
***
Baahar courtyard me aate hi Veer ne apne bagal se chal rahi Garofano ko dekha aur bola,
Veer : You are messed up!
Usne uske chehre ko dekhte hue kaha. Garofano jab se police dwara jail me le jaayi gayi thi tab se hi usne apna chehra tak nahi dhoya tha. Zaahir hai woh abhi apne sabse uttam roop me nahi thi.
Garofano : I know!!!
Par, Veer ki maujoodgi me woh kaafi hadd tak khud ko mehfooz mehsoos kar rahi thi.
Veer use ek dusre kamre ki orr laaya aur bathroom ki orr ishaara kiya. Garofano bina kuch kahe andar washroom me chali gayi. Veer tab tak wahi kamre me baahar baitha raha.
Jab tak woh aa rahi thi, tab tak Veer ne ek nazar uss autopsy ki report par dauda li.
Kareeb 15 minute baad Garofano washroom se nikal ke baahar aayi. Pehle se kahi zyaada behtar nazar aa rahi thi ab woh.
Veer : Better?
Garofano (nods) : Hmm!
Woh aake wahi neeche bicche ek cushion par baith gayi.
Veer : So? Miss Garofano!?
Garofano : Garofano nahi Veer!! Please, just call me by my real name from now on. It’s ~ Violet!! Violet Nicholson!
Veer : Violet?
Garofano : Hmm! *smiles weakly* We have the same initials. Don’t we? V for Veer! V for Violet!
Uska ravaiyya Renshu ke prati ekdum alag tha aur Veer ke prati ekdum hi alag. Zameen asmaan ka antar tha dono ravaiyye me. Jaha Renshu ke prati uske andar se ghrina saaf saaf nikal rahi thi, toh wahi Veer ke saath hone par woh khud ko shaant mehsoos kar rahi thi. Veer ke prati uske andar thodi hayaa bhi thi aur thodi jigyaasa bhi.
Veer ne apne bagal se baithi uss sundar naari ko dekha. Woh jaanta tha ki iss waqt Garofano urf Violet apne dukh ko chhipaane ki koshish kar rahi thi. Par wo isme nakaam thi. Uska dukh saaf saaf uske chehre par jhalak raha tha.
Veer : Alright then! Miss Violet! Talk!!!
Garofano : Ask me Veer. Tum jo jo puchoge mein sab ka jawaab dene ke liye taiyaar hu.
Veer : Hmm! Toh theek hai! Case shuru karte hai.
Garofano (nods) : Hmm!
Veer ne Renshu ki saari kahi gayi baat par zorr daala. Aur, seedhe hi woh prashn par aa gaya.
Veer : Mr. Nicholson ki rehesyamayi maut ke baad, unki will me yahi likha hua paaya gaya tha ki unki saari sampatti unki beti ko samarpit ki jaati hai. Right?
Garofano : Woh-
Veer : Par! Par! Par! Li Renshu ne tum pe ye ilzaam lagaya hai ki tumne paiso ki laalach me aake ye qadam uthaaya tha aur apne hi pita ko maut ke ghaat utaar diya. Taaki will me likhi gayi sampatti tumhe mil sake.
Garofano : N-Nahi-!
Veer : Lekin, ye baat yahi khatam nahi hoti. Hospital dwara Mr. Nicholson ki body ki autopsy bhi kari gayi thi. Aur post-mortem ke anusaar ek agyaat puncture ka ghaav unke ek chhipe hue ang par paaya gaya tha. Baad me pata chala ki ek behad hi jaanleva aur slow poison waha par inject kiya gaya tha. Report padhi abhi abhi maine jo Renshu ne mujhe di hai.
Garofano (panics) : Y-Ye jhooth hai!!! Tum jaante ho ki woh sui meri nahi thi Veer. Woh needle toh Renshu-
Veer : Li Renshu ne na sirf itna kuch pata lagaya balki report ye bhi kehti hai ki woh sui tumhari hi hai. Usi sui se woh ghaav banaya gaya tha isme koi shaq nahi. Aur, toh aur woh zeher bhi tumhari sui par laga hua paaya gaya jo Mr. Nicholson ki body se mila tha. Aur uske baad-
Garofano : Uske baad yahi sab hua.
Ek udaasi bhari muskaan uske hontho par aayi.
Garofano : Kaafi kuch tumne andaaza laga liya kuch hi palo me Veer! Lekin, ye sab- poori sachhayi nahi hai!! Mein tumhe andar pehle hi bata chuki hu.
Veer : !??
Garofano : Maine Mr. Nicholson ki hatya nahi ki hai. Wh-Why would I?
Uski awaaz me thar-tharahat thi. Lekin, uss thar-tharahat me ek dridhta bhi thi. Jaise woh nishchit thi ki sach kya hai aur jhooth kya.
Garofano : Li Renshu! Use jab se pata chala hai ki mein ek system owner hu tab se hi woh mujhe apni nigrani me rakhe hue hai. Aur, chuki mein system owner hu, isliye use ye aur bhi lag raha hai ki mein kuch bhi kar sakti hu. Maine hi qatl kiya hai. Yahi uska daawa hai. Ek baar bhi kisi ne mujhe apni begunahi saabit karne ka mauka nahi diya.
Veer : Hmm! Dekha maine sab kuch! Ek jhatke me woh decision le chuka tha. Koi chhaan-been kari hi nahi gayi. Mein ye bhi jaanta hu ki isme sirf Li Renshu aur Erica involved nahi hai.
Garofano (eyes widens) : Y-You mean!?
Veer : Yeah! Koi aur third person bhi involved hai. Li Renshu ko kisi ne influence kiya hai. Satark rehne ke chakkar me woh itna paranoid ho chuka hai ki usne kisi teesre vyakti ki baat ka itna bharosa kar liya. Aisa laga, jaise kisi bacche ko khilauna pakda ke use raazi kiya gaya ho.
Garofano : Th-That’s-
Garofano sarr jhukaaye ek gehre chintan me doob gayi. Magar, Veer ki nazre uski harr ek harqato par tani hui thi. Woh harr thode bol ke baad khud ko aise dikhaata jaise woh Renshu ki taraf hai, par fir aur kuch bolne ke baad aise jataata jaise Renshu galat hai.
Veer Garofano ki galti pakadne ka jaal biccha raha tha. Ye ek aisa maamla tha jaha koi bhi sahi ya galat ho sakta tha. Kya pata kaho Li Renshu sahi keh raha ho? Uske bagal se baithi ye sundar naari kaho khoon ki pyaasi ek hatyaari hi ho? Ye sab khaali uska dhong ho?
Ya fir ye bhi ho sakta tha ki Li Renshu hi galat tha? Woh koi chaal chal raha ho peeth peeche? Sabse zyada chakravyuh me Renshu ya Garofano nahi, balki Veer khud hi fasa hua tha. Use harr ek se sunishchit karna tha ki kaun saathi hai aur kaun dushman.
Woh ek prakaar se iss waqt ek double agent ke roop me kaam kar raha tha. Ek taraf use ye dikhana tha ki woh Garofano ki taraf hai toh wahi dusri orr ye ki woh Renshu ke saath hai. Aaj Las Vegas waale high IQ detective Veer ka imtihaan tha.
Veer : Mujhe nahi lagta ki system owner bas hone se turant hi kisi par bhi ilzaam laga dena chahiye.
Ye sunte hi Garofano thoda hairat me uski orr dekhi,
Garofano : Mujhe laga tha tum bhi baaki sab ki tarah mujhe ye gunaah qubool karne ke liye majboor karoge Veer!
Veer : Insaan kitni hi koshish kyu na kar le. Sach ko kabhi bhi chhipaaya nahi jaa sakta. I neither believe you nor disbelieve you. Mera bas itna maan’na hai ki saari baato ko jaan’ne ke baad hi decision liya jaa sakta hai. Toh mein chaahunga ki pehle tumhari kahani ko suna jaaye, taaki mein apni raay rakh saku.
Garofano ne haami bhari, aur bolna shuru ki-
Garofano : Theek hai, Veer! Mein tumhe sab kuch sach sach batati hu.
Veer : Hmm!
Ek gehri saans lete hue Garofano ne apni dastaan bayaan karna shuru kiya,
Garofano : Asliyat me, Mr. Nicholson aur mein... hum dono asli baap-beti hai hi nahi.
Veer : Huh!?
Garofano : I mean ye jo bhi rishta tha hamare beech, woh ek unofficial rishta tha. Na hi khoon ka rishta tha hamare beech aur na hi kisi paper par hamara rishta darj kiya gaya tha.
Kehte hue usne apne baal ki ek latt ko apne kaan ke peeche kiya. Woh apni yaadon ke talaab me aur gehraayi me gayi,
Garofano : Veer! Mr. Nicholson junoon se bharpoor insaan the. Woh charity aur trust me aksar khoob daan kiya karte the. Gareebo ki bahut madad kiya karte the hamesha. Aur mein unhi gareebo ki ek basti se ek aam ladki ki tarah hi thi, jiski madad unhone ki thi mujhe beti ke roop me apna ke.
Veer : Tumhara parivaar?
Garofano : Woh toh bachpan me hi guzar gaye the. Mein bas ek anaath bach gayi thi. Mushqil se hi zinda thi. Lekin, jaise tese bach gayi. Shayad mujhe bhi chale jaana tha iss duniya se tabhi. Hai na? *smiles weakly*
Veer : Parivaar kaise khatam hua? Kya tum share kar sakti ho?
Garofano : Ryongchon disaster!!
Usne bas yahi do shabd kahe. Aur, idhar Pari ne bina Veer ke bole hi turant hi uske mann me saari jankaari prastut kar di.
Ryongchon disaster!! 22 April 2004. Ek aisa train accident jo North Korea ke town Ryongchon me ghatit hua tha. Flammable cargo blast ho chuka tha. Saral shabdo me, woh padaarth jo jwalansheel tha, woh aag pakad chuka tha jiske chalte ek bhayanak visfot ne janm liya tha. Aur, train ke kayi saare dabbo ke chithde udd chuke the.
Zaahir hai Garofano ke maata-pita usi train me tab safar kar rahe the. Aur, aneko logo ke saath saath woh bhi apni jaan gawa baithe. Apne parivar me bas wahi ek thi jo kismat se bach gayi thi. Garofano ne ek gehri saans chorri aur bolna jaari rakha,
Garofano : Aur uss haadse ke baad mein poori tarah se anaath ho chuki thi.
Veer : Tum North Korea se South Korea jaa rahi thi?
Garofano (nods) : Hmm! Aur aa bhi gayi thi.
Veer : So, you are not completely Korean, right?
Garofano : Yes! Mein half-Korean and half white hu.
Veer : I’m sorry! Shayad mere kaaran tumhari puraani taqleef bhari yaadein taaza ho gayi.
Veer ne ahista se apni breast pocket se apna rumaal nikaalte hue uski orr kiya. Garofano ne halke se muskuraate hue uske haath se rumaal thaama aur boli,
Garofano : Isme tumhe sorry kehne ki koi zaroorat nahi Veer! Yahi woh time tha jab mein Mr. Nicholson se mili. Jab maine jeene ki icchha chorr di thi, saari umeedein chorr di thi. Tab, woh meri zindagi me farishta bann ke aaye.
Veer : Ohh!
Garofano : Unhone mujhe apni beti ki tarah paala. Aur jab mein badi hui, tab unhone hi Garofano cosmetics mujhe khol ke di thi. Mujhe jaise jeene ke liye ek naya raasta mil gaya tha.
Veer : I see!
Garofano : Mein hamesha se unka naam raushan karna chahti thi. Mein chaahti thi ki jitna unhone mujhe diya hai, mein uska kayi guna unhe lauta saku.
Veer : Aur isliye tumne system ka istemal kiya taaki Garofano cosmetics aur bhi ucchaayi par pahuch sake?
Garofano (nods) : That’s right!
Veer : Tumhe system kab mila?
Garofano : Haha!
Woh halke se muskurayi aur thahaaka lagaate hue Veer ko dekhi,
Garofano : Kya tum sach me jaan’na chaahte ho?
Veer (nods) : Yeah!
Garofano : Okay! Hassna mana hai, theek hai na? Mujhe system tab mila tha jab mein bar me nashe me dhutt hoke besudh si padi hui thi.
Veer : What?
Garofano (shyly) : I-It’s the truth! And, aisa karna bilkul bhi safe nahi tha I know. Mein drunk thi. Jiski wajah se, kuch ladke mera faayda uthaana chaahte the. Aur woh qamyaab ho bhi jaate. Agar, tab mere dimaag me wo awaaz nahi aati. Ding!! System has been activated. Haha!
Woh harr prayaas kar rahi thi ki inn chulbuli baato se wo apne dukh ko chhipa sake. Kintu, Veer ko sab kuch nazar aa raha tha.
Veer : I see! Back to the topic again.
Garofano : Ohh! Right! Sorry~
Veer : You can continue!
Garofano : Hmm! Jab se unhone mujhe apni beti maana tha tab se hi hum ek saath raha karte the. Ek dusre ka dhyaan rakhna, parvah karna. Laga tha jaise zindagi hamesha hi aise shaant, araamdayak aur dil-khush rahegi par-
Ek aasu ki boond uske gaalo se hote hue neeche giri.
Garofano : S-Sorry! Woh bas-
Veer : That’s okay! You can take your time. Parivar ko khona bahut hi peeda-dayak hota hai. Mein samajh sakta hu.
Kahi na kahi Veer ko Golu ki yaad aa gayi. Woh parivaar nahi tha uska. Lekin, uska sabse pehla dost zaroor tha.
Garofano : Toh fir tum ye bhi acche se samajhte hoge Veer… ki ek baar apne parivaar ko khone ke baad, mein dobaara apne kisi qareebi ko kaise khone de sakti hu?
Veer : …
Garofano : Hamara rishta bahut accha tha. Unhe maarne ka mein apne sapne me bhi nahi soch sakti. Mein khud apni jaan de dungi lekin unke saath aisa kabhi nahi hone dungi. Loneliness! Kaisi hoti hai ye mein jaanti hu. Mein dobaara kisi apne ko kyu khona chaahungi bhala?
Iss baar woh thitur uthi aur khud ko rok na paayi. Uske gaalo se aasu nirantar behne lage. Veer ne punah apna rumaal use thamaya.
Garofano : Th-Thank you!
Rumaal thamaate waqt Veer ki ungliyaan Garofano ki ungliyo se sparsh hui. Use mehsoos hua ki woh ekdum thandi ho rakhi thi. Kuch shan baad Garofano ne khud ko sambhaala aur sarr upar kar Veer ko gambheerta se dekhi.
Garofano : Mein jaanti hu… ki saboot mere khilaaf hai. Harr koi yahi samajh raha hai ki mein hatyaari hu. Lekin-
Veer : …
Garofano : Mein kabhi bhi apne parivaar ko nuksaan nahi pahucha sakti Veer!
Veer uske aseem dukh ko mehsoos kar paa raha tha. Uss dukh ke peeche dradh sankalp bhi tha. Veer nahi chaahta tha ki koi bhi apne parivaar se itna pyaar karne wala vyakti jhooth bole.
Veer : Well! Agar dekha jaaye toh tumhare khilaaf hi saare saboot ikhatta hue hai.
Garofano : Mmm! Mein jaanti hu!
Veer : Then?
Garofano : Veer! Agar tumhe waqai lagta hai ki mein Mr. Nicholson ke paise aur unki property ke peeche thi…! Mein batana chaahti hu tumhe ki mere aur unke beech pehle hi iss baat ko leke samjhauta ho chuka tha. Maine unse keh ke rakha tha ki mein unki koi bhi dhan daulat ka hissa nahi banungi.
Veer : …
Garofano : Aur wese bhi, agar mujhe diya bhi jaata hai toh bhi mein uski haqdar nahi hu. Wo property sahi maayno me unke chhote bhai ko milni chahiye.
Veer : Par ye sab unki will me-
Garofano : Rahi baat unki will ki- Toh mujhe ye sab unke iss duniya se jaane ke baad hi pata chala ki unhone mere liye koi will bhi banayi hui hai.
Wait!! Mr. Nicholson ka chhota bhai? Veer ek gehre chintan me doob gaya. Renshu ne toh aisa kuch bhi mention nahi kiya tha. Agar Mr. Nicholson ka sach me koi bhai hota toh Renshu ye baat beshaq uske saamne rakhta.
Ek baar fir Veer duwidha me fass chuka tha. Kaun jhooth keh raha tha? Kya Renshu ne theek se jaanch nahi kari thi? Ya Garofano jhooth keh rahi thi?
‘Damn it!!!’
[Hahahaha! What do you think, Mister Detective? Kaun sach keh raha hai? Aur kaun jhooth? If you solve this case, then I'll admire you. Just for this time I'm making an exception. Fufu~]
Veer ne ek gehri saans li. Aur, filhaal ek mauka Garofano ko diya. Shayad Renshu ne theek se chhaan been nahi ki thi. Mr. Nicholson ka ek bhai bhi tha? Bhala iss baat ka zikr usne kyu nahi kiya? Ab use zaroorat thi ek raasta khojne ki taaki woh iss gutthi ko jald se jald suljha sake.
Veer ko iss tarah shaant dekh Garofano ka sarr neeche jhuk gaya aur woh ahista se boli,
Garofano : Shayad ye gutthi ab sulajh nahi sakti. Hai na? *smiles* Aur ab dheere dheere meri umeedein bhi kam hoti jaa rahi hai Veer. Akele kis se ladti rahungi? Mein kisi ko maar to nahi sakti na?
Veer : That’s-
Garofano : Jab tak meri koi bas baat sunn le, mere liye bas wahi bahut hai. Mein usme hi khush hu. Mujhe koi safaayi nahi deni apne baare me. Mein dekhti hu mein kya kar sakti hu-! Then-
Veer : No! Mein iss gutthi ko suljha sakta hu. Iss poori problem ki jadd hai lack of evidence. Poora case hi uljha hua hai. Mein tum par apna trust rakh raha hu. Mein bhi dekhna chahta hu akhir kitna pyaar tha tumhe apne parivar se.
Iss baar Garofano use aashcharya me dekhi.
Garofano : T-Toh tum keh rahe ho ki tumhe yakeen hai ki mein nirdosh hu?
Veer : Maine aisa kuch nahi kaha. Mera kehna bas ye hai ki mein iss gutthi ko suljha ke rahunga aur asal me kya hua tha woh sab ke saamne launga.
Garofano : ….
Veer : Mein jaanta hu ki Renshu system owners ki taraf biased rehta hai. Koi bhi rahega. Unhe naap taul ke parakhta hai woh. Kyuki, agar koi khatra bann sakte hai toh woh system owners hi hai. Na ki aam insaan. Lekin-
Garofano (stares) : ???
Veer : Lekin, iss tarah se hum kisi nateeje par nahi aa sakte aur na hi bina tehqiqaat ke koi faisla suna sakte hai. Sach ko nazar-andaaz karna galat hai.
Garofano : …
Veer : Isliye- Mein koshish karunga ki iss poori riddle ko solve karu aur tumhara naam sab ke saamne clear ho jaaye ki tumne Mr. Nicholson ko nahi maara hai. Yahi ek raasta hai jis se tumhe nirdosh saabit kiya jaa sakta hai.
Garofano : …
Veer : Magar, uske pehle- Mein bhi chaahunga ki tum bhi mujhpe trust karo.
Garofano wahi jamm ke reh gayi. Lag raha tha jaise woh poori tarah se stabdh thi Veer ki baat sunane ke baad. Kuch shan baad, woh ahista se boli,
Garofano : Veer-!!
Veer : Hmm?
Garofano (smiles) : Tum mujhe kisi ki yaad dilaate ho.
Ek bhaavuk, udaseen bhaav uske chehre par terr gaya. Veer ko turant hi kisi cheez ka ehsaas hua.
Veer : Koi family member?
Garofano ne haule se sarr naa me hilaaya aur boli,
Garofano : Nahi! Ek bachpan ka dost.
Veer : Ohh! Toh? Ab kaha hai woh-
Garofano : He’s no more!
Veer : ….
Garofano (smiles) : You remind me of him. Woh bilkul tumhari tarah tha. Dayaalu aur insaaf dhoondhne waala…! Such a pity…!
Veer : Kya hua tha?
Garofano : Huntington’s disease.
Garofano ke muh se nikalte hi Pari ne Veer ke saamne ek baar fir jankaari prastut kar di.
[Huntington’s disease. Ek aisa disorder hai jisme dimaag ke nerve cells yaani ki neurons toot ke bikhar jaate hai aur samay ke saath marr jaate hai. Iss beemari ka koi cure nahi hai.]
Padhte hi Veer ka mann bhi niraash ho utha.
Garofano : Mein khushkismat hu jo meri mulaqat tumse hui. Insaaf dhoondhne waale se…! *smiles* Mein sach me abhaari hu ki tum mere liye ye kar rahe ho. Pehli baar tumse milte hi samajh gayi thi mein.
Veer : Tum hum system owners me se ek ho. Aur, ye kahi na kahi hum sabki zimmedari hai ki sach ko khoja jaaye uske baad hi koi nirnay liya jaaye.
Garofano : Zimmedari unn sabne toh nahi li na Veer? Fir tumne kyu-?
Veer : I don’t know! I just feel like it. Tumhe abhaar vyakt karne ki zaroorat nahi hai.
Garofano bas dheere se ek haami bhari.
Garofano (smiles) : Hmm! I’ll wait then!
Veer ek gehre chintan me doob gaya. Akhir sach kaun keh raha tha? Kya Renshu jhooth keh raha tha? Magar, usne na sirf itni kuch baatein use batayi balki apni khud ki beti Erica ki bhi skill uske saamne khule aam bata di thi.
Advanced observation!!!
Isi skill ki madad se Erica ne uss phone call ke baare me Renshu ko bataya tha. Veer nahi jaanta tha ki ye advanced observation kaise kaam karta tha, par woh baad me Pari se iske baare me puch sakta tha. Zaroor Pari kuch na kuch iske baare me jaanti hi hogi. Agar woh skill shop se li gayi hogi, toh Pari ko beshaq iske baare me kuch na kuch andaaza zaroor hoga.
Agar, Renshu satark rehna chaahta aur use gumraah karna chaahta toh woh itna asaani se Erica ki skill kyu bataata?
Par, yahi baat Garofano ke liye bhi kahi jaa sakti thi. Pehli mulaqaat me hi usne 'Dead Silence' ka prayog kar ke Veer ko apni skill ka andaaza de diya tha.
Yaha tak ki usne apni sui banaane waali aur poison banaane waali skills ke baare me bhi koi virodh nahi kiya.
Akhir, chal kya raha tha!!?
Woh dono kuch aur baatein karte ki tabhi baahar se ek shor unhe sunayi diya.
*Honk* *Honk*
Kisi gaadi ke horn ki awaaz si maalum pad rahi thi. Raat me 10:30 ho rahe the. Iss waqt bhala kaun ho sakta tha?
Awaaz sunte hi Veer turant hi apni jagah se uth khada hua aur baahar ki orr chal diya. Woh akela nahi tha. Garofano bhi uske peeche peeche aa rahi thi. Kintu, woh savdhaan thi.
Use dhoondhte hue police bhi aa sakti thi. Isliye, seedhe seedhe woh baahar nahi jaa sakti thi.
Andar se Renshu samet Erica bhi baahar aa chuke the. Renshu ke aadmi abhi tak hosh me nahi aaye the, isliye baahar guard karne ke liye bhi koi nahi tha. Garofano sab ko behosh kar ke andar aayi thi.
[Garofano ke paas koi skill ya kuch aur zaroor hai jis se logo ko sleep ya unconscious state me daala jaa sakta hai.]
Pari ne Veer ko sachet kiya.
'Yeah!'
[This is your golden opportunity. Jab tak woh yaha hai, tumhe uske system ke baare me jitna ho sake utna pata karna hoga. Even Renshu aur Erica ke baare me bhi. We don't know who might turn their back against us.]
'I know!!!'
[Good!]
Erica ne jaise hi main entrance ka woh bada sa darwaza khola, saamne ek car khadi hui thi.
Aur, jaise hi car ka darwaza khula, usme se ek khubsoorat aurat baahar nikal ke aayi.
Saamne khade logo ko dekh, jaise hi uski nazar Veer pe padi, na sirf woh khud chaunki balki Veer bhi utna hi chakit reh gaya.
Divya : V-Veer!!???
Veer : Divya???

Nice waiting for next update. I'm loving itUpdate - 173 ~ Unmasked
[Note : Update bada hai toh itminaan se padhna.]
Ab tak...
Tej (nods) : Hmm! Kuch pata nahi lag paa raha ki woh kaha gaya hai. India se baahar hai. Bas keh deta hai ki business ke silsile me baahar aaya hu. Par- par mujhe lagta hai ki woh humse kuch chhipa raha hai Mom. Iss baar mein use chorrne waali nahi hu. Mein use itni asaani se maaf nahi karungi. Aur, aap bhi mujhe kuch nahi bolengi.
Bhavna ki bauhe kasi hui thi. Uska laadla bina bataaye ghar se chala gaya? Kaha gaya hoga bhala? Woh ek chintan me doob gayi.
Ab aage...
Garofano riha ho chuki thi. Magar, sab kuch samapt nahi hua tha. Case abhi bhi ruka hua tha aur hatyara abhi bhi salaakho ke peeche nahi tha.
Case behad hi pecheeda tha. Kintu, Veer ne ise bhaanp liya tha ki iski gathaane kis tarah bandhi hui thi.
Ghatnao ko agar kram anusar lagaya jaaye toh woh kuch iss prakar se ghatit hui thi.
Mr. Nicholson ka apni beti ke sang China aana.
Woh jaydad ka batwaara kar rahe hai aur apne chhote bhai se rishte naate tod dena chaahte hai, isliye yaha aaye hai.
Woh apni beti Violet ki personal workshop par jaate hai.
Unka workshop se nikalna aur fir achanak se gayab ho jaana.
Unki laash ek khandahar me praapt hona jo ki sheher se kaafi duri par tha.
Ye tha ghatnakram hatya ke poorv se leke hatya tak ka. Parantu, asli gutthi toh yaha se aarambh hui thi. Jaha police aake apni investigation par poornviram laga chuki thi toh wahi Veer ke liye ab ye investigation shuru hui thi. Kyuki, yahi se system owners aur unke kathan shaamil ho chuke the.
Renshu ka kehna tha ki mrat shareer me pehle se hi zeher paaya gaya tha. Hospital waalo ne autopsy ki report me bhi yahi bataya tha. Aur, use yakeen hai ki yeh Garofano ka hi kaam tha.
Kintu, Garofano saboot mita ke chali gayi thi. Isliye, Renshu ne Garofano ki tohfe me di hui woh needles dobara se laash par Erica ke dwara wahi chhudhwa di. Upar se ek needle uski workshop me bhi Erica chupke se rakh aayi. Taaki, police crime location par mile saboot ko workshop me mile saboot se match kar sake. Aur, Garofano ko jail bhej sake.
Renshu ki nazro me Garofano hi hatyari thi.
Magar, dusri orr Garofano ye qubool karne ko taiyaar nahi thi. Uske kathan ke anusar woh nirdosh thi. Aur, ye sab Renshu dwara use fasaane ke liye kiya gaya tha.
Saare saboot uske khilaaf the. Uske paas apni begunahi saabit karne ke liye kuch nahi tha. Uska kehna yahi tha ki usne apne pita ki hatya nahi ki hai. Usne Renshu ke upar ilzaam zaroor lagaya tha. Parantu, ilzaam ye lagaya tha ki Renshu use fasa raha hai. Ye nahi lagaya ki Renshu ne uske pita ko maara hai.
Ye baat Veer ke dimaag me baith chuki thi. Woh chaahti toh dosh Renshu par daal sakti thi jaise usne uss par daala tha. Veer ne jab uss se iska kaaran pucha tha toh usne bas yahi jawaab diya tha ~
"Maine Dad ko nahi maara hai, Veer! Why would I? Aur, mein ye kaise keh du ki Renshu ne unhe maara hai? Mein itna jaanti hu ki usne mujhe fasaya hai. Dad ko kisne maara, ye main nahi jaanti. Toh aise me dosh kaise daal sakti hu kisi par?"
"What about the past illustration?"
"Agar, insaan marrne se pehle apne hosh kho de toh hum uske past me ye nahi dekh sakte ki uske baad uske saath kya hua. Zaahir hai behoshi me mere Dad ko maara gaya hoga. Past mein chaah ke bhi poora nahi dekh paayi."
Yaha Veer ko system ki ek nayi jankari haath lagi thi. Agar, marrne waala vyakti apni maut ke chand pal pehle hi behosh ho jaaye toh use toh pata hi nahi chalega ki uske saath kya hua.
Aise me system uska past poorn roop se nahi dikha payega. Uski maut kisne ki ye chhip ke reh jayega.
Garofano ke iss khathan me kitni sachayi thi ye Veer nahi jaanta tha. Magar, kabhi na kabhi woh ise aazma ke dekh hi sakta tha. Usne punah apne prashn rakhe~
"Tumne kuch toh dekha hoga? Kaun the woh log? Kitne log the?"
"Yes!!! Kayi saare log the. Dad meri workshop se jab nikle the toh unn logo ne dad ko follow karna shuru kar diya tha. Uske baad woh unhe gher ke uss location par le gaye. Aur, fir...!"
"Kuch aur detail?"
"Sirf itna hi pata chala ki kuch aadmi the aur sabhi muh par kapda baandhe hue the."
"Isliye, tum Renshu par blame nahi daal rahi?"
"Of course! Mujhe nahi pata woh uske aadmi the ya kisi aur ke. Aise me mein kisi par bhi ungli nahi utha sakti Veer."
Inhi kuch baato ke chalte Veer kaafi kuch iss case ko samajh chuka tha. Gunde zaroor Ethan Nicholson ke the. Erica jo report laayi thi usme saaf saaf ye zahir tha ki haal hi me Ethan ne underworld gangs se contact kiya hai.
Garofano ka riha hona bhi itna saral nahi tha. Woh pehle hi jail se bhaag chuki thi. Isliye, uss par bhi kanoon todne ke kuch sanctions lage the.
Magar, woh filhal ke liye jail se chooth chuki thi. Needles par Garofano ke koi bhi fingerprints nahi paaye gaye the. Body par bhi Garofano ka koi fingerprint maujood nahi tha. Yaha tak ki uski odour bhi crime spot par K-9 unit bhaanp nahi paaye the.
Parantu, sabse bada saboot jiski wajah se Garofano choothi woh tha uski workshop ka CCTV footage.
Mr. Charles Nicholson apni beti ke sang uski workshop me aaye the. CCTV me sab qaid hua tha. Aur, kuch derr baad Mr. Nicholson workshop se nikal gaye. Ghar se baahar nikalne ke do raaste the. Aage se aur peeche se. Aur, dono hi taraf CCTV maujood the. Magar, dono hi CCTV me Garofano apni workshop se nikalti hui dikhayi nahi di.
Iska matlab saaf tha ki Garofano ki alibi confirm ho chuki thi. Jiss waqt Mr. Nicholson baahar khandhar me mrat paaye gaye the. Uss waqt Garofano apni workshop me hi thi. Woh workshop se baahar nikli hi nahi thi.
Inn tamaam sabooto ki wajah se aur FBCC ke involvement ke kaaran, China ke court ko apna faisla turant ke turant badalna pada. Ab Ethan Nicholson tha jise sawaalo ke uttar dene the.
Lag-bhag 2 din me hi Veer ne saara case suljha diya tha. Raat ke 10 baj rahe the aur woh ab Renshu se mine ke silsile me baat karne hi jaa raha tha jab-
*Ding*
[Mission : Unmask the culprit.
Rewards : ???? Points.
Time Limit : 8 hours.
Mission Failure Penalty : No Penalty.]
'What!!??'
Veer stabdh tha. Khush bhi tha ki itne samay baad akhir kaar use mission praapt hua magar, mission iss waqt milna jab sab kuch saamne hi tha. Ye baat koi sense nahi bana rahi thi.
Mission fail hone ki koi penalty nahi thi ye dekh kar usne ek rahat ki saans li. Ye points uske hi the.
Woh abhi kuch aur sochta ki itne me uske samaksh Garofano aake khadi ho gayi.
Garofano : Veer!!!
Veer : Hmm?
Garofano : Mein ab detention me nahi hu. Toh... Kya tum mere saath meri workshop chaloge?
Veer : Ohh? Workshop ki key police waalo ne tumhe wapas dedi?
Garofano (smiles) : Mujhe kaise de sakte hai? Mein abhi bhi bhaagi hui qaidi hu unki nazro me. Divya aur hamare lawyer ko di gayi thi key. Maine Divya se leli hai. So? Kya tum chaloge?
Veer : Kuch zaroori kaam hai?
Garofano (nods) : Hmm-Mmm~! Choonki, promise ke anusar ab mine ke silsile me mein yaha busy hone waali hu toh kuch important cheezein waha se uthaani thi.
Veer : Ohh! Sure! Why not?
Garofano : Really?
Veer : Of course!
Garofano (smiles) : Thank you!
Woh muskurati hui uska haath pakad use kheechte hue baahar ko le jaane lagi.
Erica aur Renshu dono saath me hi wahi baithe the jis kamre se hoke Garofano aur Veer guzar rahe the.
Erica : Tumhari fir koi nayi chaal hai kya?
Garofano : Mein Veer ko apni workshop leke jaa rahi hu. Mujhe waha se kuch zaroori samaan uthana hai. Car ki key chahiye mujhe.
Erica : Hum koi car ki chaavi tumhe nahi-
Renshu (nods) : Theek hai!
Erica : Wh-Whattt? Dad???
Renshu : Chaavi dedo Erica!!!
Iss baar bhi harr baar ki tarah ulta hi hua. Jab jab wo kuch karne jaati, uske Dad uss se vipreet nirnay suna dete the.
Woh daant meeste hue uthi aur chaavi ko usne be-mann se Garofano ki orr fek diya. Divya apne escort me sang baaki formalities ko poora karne me lagi hui thi toh woh iss waqt yaha nahi thi.
Ye mauka Veer ke liye sahi tha.
Aur, dono Veer Garofano Renshu ke ghar se ravana hoke workshop ki orr chal diye.
***
*Kuch derr baad*
Woh dono workshop pahuch chuke the. Sheher se ye workshop thodi duri par thi. Garofano ka kehna tha ki woh zyada shor waali jagahe pasand nahi karti thi, isliye iss jagah ko usne apni workshop ke liye chuna tha. Jagah buri nahi thi. Bas, thodi sunsaan thi. Aas paas ghar nahi the, showrooms, cafes bas yahi sab the jo lights se raushan ho rakhe the.
Unhe yaha aane me hi lagbhag 2 ghanta lag chuka tha. Raat ke 12 baj rahe the aur sabhi apne apne vyapaar ki dukaano ko band kar apne ghar jaa chuke the.
Garofano : Aao Veer! Please~
*Click*
Garofano ne ek lambe se darwaaze ka lock khola aur Veer ko andar ki orr le gayi. Usne ek switch ghumaya aur garm peeli roshni ne kamre ke samaan ko raushan kar diya. Bhale hi itne dino se ghar band hone ke kaaran dhool ki ek patli parat jagah jagah jama ho gayi thi par fir bhi Veer mehsoos kar sakta tha ki ghar mool roop se kitna sundar aur saath hi saath aramdayak tha.
Kayi jagah Garofano ke haath se banaaye kapde mannequins par tange hue the, saath hi decorations jo kamre ki saaj-sajja ko aur bhi nikhaar rahe the.
Veer : Y-Ye sab-!? Ye sab tumne banaya hai?
Wese toh usne pehle hi check kar ke ye pata laga liya tha parantu, fir bhi woh Garofano ke muh se sunn’na chaahta tha.
Garofano : Haan! Ye sab abhi bhi poori tarah se taiyaar nahi hai.
Usne aage badh wahi rakhe mannequin par lipti ek dress ko dheere se sehla kar, ek aah bharte hue kaha.
Garofano : Well? Jisne ye order diya tha, woh toh ab ise kabhi bhi nahi pehen sakta.
Uska ishaara mannequin par tange ek coat ki taraf tha. Veer samajh gaya. Shayad Garofano ke Dad apne liye iss coat ka order deke gaye the. Kintu, use pehen'ne se pehle hi woh chal base.
Garofano ki nazre wahi rakhe ek flower vase par gayi.
Garofano : Itne dino baad lauti hu ki phool bhi murjha gaye hai.
Veer : It’s okay! Taaza phulo se hum inhe badal denge. *smiles*
Garofano (smiles) : Hmm! Mein washroom se aati hu. Feel free to look around Veer~
Uske jaate hi Veer kuch qadam aage badh wahi kamre me tehelne laga. Mannequins ko dekhte hue woh dresses ko bhi parakh raha tha. Na jaane udhar Mumbai me Louis aur baaki sabhi Yarnia ko lekar kitna aage badhe honge? Uske WhatsApp par na jaane kitne saare messages dale hue the. Jinme se sabse zyada Tej aur Kavya ke hi the.
Kintu, Veer ke paas filhal kisi ko bhi reply dene ka samay nahi tha. Woh jaanta tha ki agar usne reply diya toh aur 100 sawaal uske sarr aa jayenge.
Abhi woh tehel hi raha tha jab uske kaan achanak hi kuch halchal sunn khade ho gaye. Woh turant hi ek deewaar ke peeche chhip gaya aur tabhi-
*BAAAAANNNGGGG*
Tezz awaaz ke saath ghar ke saamne ka darwaaza dhadalle se achanak khul gaya. Kayi saare log haatho me hathiyaar liye aa dhamke. Aur, unke saamne ek patla sa vyakti tha jo shayad inn aadmiyo ka boss prateet ho raha tha.
Aadmi : Aapko pakka yakeen hai na Mr. Nicholson? Ki woh yahi hai?
Ethan Nicholson : Haan Haan! Yahi woh ghar hai! Hmph! Mere khabri ne mujhe khabar di hai ki usne inn logo ko andar jaate dekha hai. Uske saath koi- koi aur bhi hai. Dhundho unhe jaldi!
Veer ko turant ke turant hi samajh aa gaya ki bhala iss waqt Mr. Nicholson ka ye chhota bhai yaha kyu aaya hua tha. Woh ek aise mauqe ki talaash kar raha tha jaha woh uske aur Garofano ke khilaaf qadam utha sake.
Veer chaahta toh aage badh unhe maar maar ke unki khatiya khadi kar deta. Parantu, yaha dimaag se chalne ki zaroorat thi. Agar woh baahar nikal unn sab se ladta toh zaahir hai ki unme se koi bhi uska saamna nahi kar paata.
Par, unki dhulayi karne ke baad kya? Veer unki jaan nahi le sakta tha aur na hi lena chahta tha. Aise me agar woh firse kahi court chale gaye ya unhone maar peet ka evidence pesh kar diya, toh ye case aur badh jaane waala tha.
Aur, dusra kaaran jo use rok raha tha woh ye ki Mr. Nicholson ka chhota bhai Garofano ka ek prakaar se relative hi tha. Muh bola hi sahi par rishtedaar toh lagta hi tha. Yaha woh bina Garofano ki anumati ke koi action nahi lena chahta tha. Dekhne se lag raha tha shayad Ethan Nicholson bail par tha.
Woh abhi paristithi se nikalne ke baare me soch hi raha tha jab achanak do narm thande haath uski gardan aur gaalo ko sehlate hue uske muh par aaye aur use dhak liye.
Veer : !!??
Garofano : Shhhh!!! Mein hu Veer~
Woh peeche se uss se aake lipat gayi. Uske baalo se aati anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me pravesh ki. Garofano ke dil ki dhadkan use apni peeth par mehsoos ho rahi thi. Veer ne use apni gardan mod ke dekh ek haami bhari. Uski nazre jaise puch rahi thi ki aage kya karna hai?
Garofano : Ek peeche ka darwaza bhi hai. Hum waha se nikal sakte hai. Aao mere saath-! Inse bhidna theek nahi. Inke khilaf pehle saboot ikhatta karna hoga.
Veer ne use pal bhar ke liye dekha. Jaise kehna chaah raha ho ki kya waqai hum system owners inn aam aadmiyo se darr kar bhaag rahe hai?
Aur, Garofano ne bhi jaise uske mann ki baat padh li, isliye woh turant hi haule se boli.
Garofano : Hum darr ke nahi bhaag rahe, Veer. Par, harr baar taqat nahi dikhayi jaati. Come!
Woh Veer ko leke peeche ke darwaaze ki orr badhi. Uski awaaz behad hi shaant thi jaise ki woh achanak hue iss hamle se zara bhi vichlit nahi thi. Ye jaante hue bhi ki uske Dad ke sage chhote bhai hi inn sab ke peeche the.
Veer ko pata hi nahi chala ki Garofano uske itna qareeb akhir kaise aa gayi thi? Uske mann me ek ajeeb si anubhooti jaagi. Lekin, sochne ka samay nahi tha.
Dead Silence!! Yahi woh skill thi. Pehli baar jab woh uss se mila tha tab bhi Garofano ne Dead Silence ka prayog kiya tha. Veer ko ye yaad tha.
‘Such a deadly skill! I’m jealous!’
[Indeed.]
Aadmiyo ki nazro se bachte hue woh dono hi tamaam samaano ki aadh me pichhle dwaar tak pahuch gaye.
Garofano : Yahi hai gate peeche ka. Yaha se hum-
*BAAAAAANNNNGGGGG*
Woh bolti ki iske pehle hi ek bullet tezi se Garofano ke perr par lagne ko aayi magar-
*Swishhhh*
Woh ek jhatke me bagal ko ho gayi. Peeche ke gate par bhi kuch aadmi aa chuke the. Shayad woh sabhi poori planning se aaye the.
Ethan Nicholson (shouts) : Violet!!! Dhokebaaz aurat….!!! Bhaagne ki firaaq me thi tum? Hai na? Hahaha! Dusro se kaam nikalwane me tumhara koi jawab nahi. Ye ladka…! Zaroor, tum hi ho woh jisne ye case apne haath me liya, hai na?
Garofano : Mr. Ethan? No!!! Ethan!!! Tumne hi mere Dad ko maara hai. Aur, mein chup nahi baithne waali.
Ethan : Tchhh!!! Agar, tumhare bagal se khada woh kameena mere raaste me na aaya hota toh mein kab ka qamyab ho gaya hota. Yaha tak ki will ki saari property mere naam ho gayi hoti. Lekin, sirf iski wajah se… sirf iski wajah se… Mujhe jail jaana pada. Woh toh bhala ho ki police ko mere khilaaf thos saboot nahi mil paaya. Aur, shukriya mere lawyer ka jiski wajah se mujhe do din ki bail mil gayi. Ab sab kuch mere hisaab se hi chalega…!
Garofano : …!?
Ethan : Kya saboot dilwaya tha tumne? Haha? Apni alibi ka? Woh main darwaze par laga CCTV aur uski recording na? Maine woh CCTV uda diya hai. Hahahaha! Aur, ye raha tumhara dusra CCTV...!
*BANG*
Usne pichle darwaaze par lage CCTV ki taraf apni bandook se nishana laga ke fire kiya aur dusre CCTV ke bhi chithde udd gaye.
Ethan : Hahahaha!!! Ab yaha kya hua, kaise hua, kisi ko kuch nahi pata chalega.
Garofano : To think that... Mere Dad ko tumne maara...! Tumne-!!!
Ethan (screams) : Ye sab tumhari wajah se hua hai. Sab tumhari galti hai.
Veer : Shut up!
Ethan : H-Huh-!?
Veer : Tum lucky the jo uss waqt Violet ko koi aur fasaana chaahta tha. Apne bade bhai ko tumne pehle hi maar diya tha. Ye tumhari kismat thi jo waha par Violet ke khilaaf saboot koi aur chorr gaya. Tum darre hue the. Tumhe lag raha tha ki body ko tumne thikaane nahi lagaaya. Tum kaise bach paoge? Tabhi, tumhe khabar mili ki Violet ke khilaaf murder scene par saboot milne ki wajah se use arrest kar liya gaya hai. Aur, tab tumhari khushi ka koi thikaana nahi tha. Hai na? Tum ye mauka apne haath se nahi jaane dena chaahte the. Right?
Ethan (screams) : Sh-Shut upppp!!!! You bastard!!!!
Veer ki ek ek baat khanjar ki tarah Ethan ke shareer me ghup rahi thi. Harr baat jaise sach prateet ho rahi thi. Ethan gusse se jhunjhlaya hua tha. Uska poora badan krodh me kaanp raha tha.
Baat sach thi ki woh body ko samay par thikane nahi lagwa paaya tha. Kyuki, usi waqt waha kisi ke aane ki aahat paake uske aadmi waha se bhaag gaye the.
Use laga tha ki woh ab gaya. Ab woh fass jayega. Kintu, agle hi din Garofano ke khilaf police ne crime sthal par saboot dhoondh nikaale the. Woh jaan chuka tha ki uss waqt jo log aaye the woh zaroor wahi log honge jinhone Garofano ke khilaf waha saboot chorre honge.
Zaahir hai, woh shaks Erica hi thi.
Veer : Par, sach chhipaya nahi jaa sakta. Tumne socha ki iss se accha mauka Violet ko fasaane ka nahi milega. Aur, isliye tum underground ho gaye. Tumne turant hi iss case ko proceed karwaya jisme minimum se minimum investigation ki gayi. Of course, tumhari kahani ke hisaab se tum apne conclusion par pahuch hi gaye the.
Ethan : H-Huh!?
Veer (grins) : Jab tak mein iss kahani me nahi aaya tha!!!
Ethan : Y-You-!!!! *shouts* You bastard!!! M-Mein tumhe dikhaata hu…! Jao! Unn dono ko pakad ke mere paas lao. Mujhe wo dono zinda chahiye!!!
Usne apne haath se ishara kiya aur ek ke baad ek gunde Veer aur Garofano ki taraf badhne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Ding*
[Beowulf's Blessings has been activated.]
Ek gunde ne Veer ke chehre ki taraf jaise hi ek pipe ghumaya, Veer ne baaju hote hi badi hi saralta se use dodge kar liya.
Veer ko achanak iss tarah hamla dodge karte dekh gunde aapas me chaunke par fir gambheer hote hue dobara vaar karne lage.
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
*Whoosh*
*Dodge*
Magar, harr prayas vifal. Veer ne mauka dekha aur turant hi Garofano ko darwaaze ke baahar dhakela.
Turant ke turant wo khud bhi nikla par tabhi-
*Bang*
Ethan ki bullet uski baah ko graze karte hue nikal gayi. Bullet uske haath ko kharochte hue gayi thi. Khoon behna shuru ho chuka tha.
Garofano (concerned) : Veeeerrr???
Veer : Don't worry!!! Quick!!!
Garofano : I know!!!
Garofano ne Veer ki kalaayi thaami, use dekha. Aur, tezi ke saath waha se bhaagi. Ghar se lagi hui kayi saari alleys bani hui thi. Unhi me se ek alley me woh Veer ko leke uske sang andar ghus gayi.
Ethan (screams) : Madarchodo-!!! Pakdo unhe-!!!
Veer ko unke qadmo ki awaaz sunayi de rahi thi. Par, woh sab ke sab clueless idhar se udhar bhatak rahe the. Jab qadmo ki awaaz poori tarah se band ho gayi, toh Veer ne Beowulf ko band kar diya.
Veer : Kya soch ke woh yaha aaya tha?
Garofano : Socha hoga ki kuch gundo ke lekar jaunga toh ye amla naari kya hi mera kuch bigaad payegi.
Veer : Uss bechare ko nahi pata tha ki hum system owners hai. Too bad!!
Garofano chalte hue uske nazdeek aayi aur chintit nazro se woh uske haath ko dekhi jaha se khoon abhi bhi tapak raha tha. Use koi zyada chot nahi aayi thi. Kuch hi ghanto me ye chot poori tarah se theek ho jaane wali thi. Ye baat Garofano khud bhi jaanti thi. Magar, uske bawajood woh chinta vyakt kar rahi thi. Kahi na kahi use khushi thi ki Veer use bachaane ke liye aage aaya. Ye jaante hue bhi ki woh khud ek system owner thi. Toh kahi use gham bhi tha Veer ki abhi ki haalat dekh ke.
Garofano : Mujhe dekhne do!
Veer : What?? Y-Ye? Don’t worry! Ye theek ho jayega!!
Garofano ne bina uski baat maane hi ek jhatke me uski aasteen faad ke alag kar di.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mein jaanti hu ki ye tumhari liye maamuli chot hai. P-Par- Par, mere liye nahi hai.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : I’m sorry! Na mein tumhe yaha laati, aur na hi ye sab kuch hota.
Veer : Pagal ho kya? Ye kuch bhi nahi hai! Don’t overreact! Hume thodi pata tha ki woh Ethan iss tarah ki tactic khel jayega. Now that I see it. He’s so dumb. Agar, Renshu ne woh sui waha nahi chorri hoti toh ye bewakoof khud ko kabhi bhi nahi bacha paata.
Parantu, iske baad bhi Garofano maayus prateet ho rahi thi. Jaise woh khud ko hi dosh de rahi thi.
Veer : Umm-!! Well-
Garofano (glances) : Hmm?
Veer (blushes) : A-Agar tum kuch karna hi chaahti ho toh- W-Well! Actually… Woh jo button tumne sili thi woh gir gayi abhi waha ladte waqt. T-Toh-
Garofano ki nigaahein kuch pal ke liye timtimayi. Jaise maano paar-darshi ho rahi ho. Veer unn aankhon me doob ke kuch na kuch paa sakta tha. Par, iske pehle ki woh aur dekh paata turant hi woh aankhein punah apardarshi ho gayi.
Garofano (smiles) : Iss baar sirf button nahi, Veer! I’ll make a shirt for you!!!
Veer : O-Oh!
Veer uski muskaan me jaise kho sa gaya.
Garofano : Par uss se pehle- Let me do the dressing!
Uske paas hamesha ek first aid kit hoti hi thi. Turant hi apne shrug ko khol usne andar ke jebo se kayi saari bandages nikaali. Jab usne apna shrug khola toh Veer ne dekha ki kaise tarah tarah alag alag akaar ki sui shrug ke andar fix latki hui thi. Yaha tak ki zeher ki woh sheeshi ka bhi alag se jeb bana hua tha. Woh aage aayi aur cotton se komalta se khoon ko pochi. Aur, uske baad disinfectant lagate hue, ek ointment ki parat upar chadha kar bandage ko baandhne lagi.
Garofano : Ho gaya…!
Veer : W-Well! Thanks!
Garofano (mutters) : No one will hurt you from now on!
Veer : Huh!!??
Garofano ne bahut hi dheere se bola tha. Magar, Veer ke senses tez the. Agar, koi aam insaan hota toh woh sunn nahi paata. Parantu, Veer ne sunn liya tha. Aur, sunane ke baad bhi use apne kaano par vishavaas nahi ho raha tha. Kya Garofano ne wahi kaha tha jo usne abhi abhi suna?
Tabhi, ek baar fir unn gundo ke qadmo ki awaaz Veer ke kaano me padi.
Veer : Ye bewakoof log firse-
Lekin, iske pehle ki woh apni baat poori keh paata, use apne haath par ek chubhan mehsoos hui. Aur, fir sunnata uski baah se uske poore shareer tak fel gayi. Use lakwa maar chuka tha. Veer ka vision dhundhla hone laga, usne apna santulan khoya aur woh peeche ki orr girne laga jaha ek narm, garm aalingan me woh utar gaya.
Veer ne dekha ki Garofano ki goad me woh gir chuka tha.
Veer (shocked) : Y-You-!!!!!????
Garofano : It’s okay! It’s okay! Don’t be scared. Kuch nahi hone waala tumhe. It’s alright, honey!
Veer : !!!???
Garofano : Bas, tumhe ab dakhal dene ki zaroorat nahi, my dear.
Veer upar uthane ki koshish karta hai. Uske gaal Garofano ke lambe reshmi baalo se dhake hue the. Aur, uski anokhi sugandh Veer ki naak me bhar rahi thi.
Veer : G-Garofano-!!! Why-!!? Ugh-!! Y-You-!!!
Garofano (concerned) : Don’t look at me like that honey! Aur, mujhe Violet keh ke pukaaro please~ Call me informally! Don’t worry! Tumhe kuch nahi hoga. I just want you to be silent.
Veer : W-When did you-???
Badle me Garofano bas muskurayi. Aur, Veer ko turant samajh aa gaya ki uske saath kya hua.
Pichle dwaar se bhaagte waqt jaise hi Garofano ne uski kalaayi thaami thi...!!!
Wahi woh waqt tha jab usne apni ek chhoti si needle uski kalaayi me ghop di thi.
Garofano (smiles) : Mein hamesha tab hamla karti hu jab mere shikaar ko iski sabse kam umeed hoti hai, Veer. Jab woh mujh par sabse zyada bharosa karte hai aur mujhse pyaar karte hai.
Veer : Y-You-!!!
Garofano : Paralysis toxin!!! Mera apna banaya gaya toxin hai. Chaah ke bhi tum ise neutralize nahi kar sakte. *smiles* After all, system ki shop me tumhe iske liye koi skill nahi milegi. Iska cure sirf mera hi anti-toxin hai.
Veer (frowns) : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Mujhe pata tha tum hi ho woh- Y-You were the only one I was yearning for, Veer. No!! My honey!!
Veer : ??
Garofano : Pehle mujhe shaq bhi tha. Kya tum woh insaan hoge bhi ya nahi? Mene itni umeed nahi rakhi thi tumse. P-Par- Tum meri umeedo ke vipreet hi nikle Veer. Tum itne imaandar, bhaavuk… Yaha tak ki itne bhole the ki system holders ki parvah kar baithe? Fufu~ Tum sach me kamaal ho. Aur, isliye mein jald se jald tumhari taraf khichti chali gayi.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Mene pehle socha tha ki agar tum mere raaste me aaye, aur tum woh vyakti na nikle jaisa maine socha tha… Toh, mein apne raaste se tumhe hamesha hamesha ke liye alag kar dene waali thi. Of course, abhi bhi tum mera target ho. *smiles* Farq sirf itna hai ki iss baar mein tumhe apne tareeqe se apne paas rakhna chaahti hu.
Veer (frowns) : Wh-What-!!? What do you want-!!?
Garofano : Maine kaha na Veer!
Veer : ??
Garofano : I won’t let you get hurt anymore.
Itna bol woh Veer ko apni goad me uthaayi. Scene ekdum hi alag tha. Ek princess carry me aksar ek ladka ek ladki ko iss tarah uthaata tha par, yaha Garofano Veer ko iss tarah se uthaayi hui thi. Uske chehre se muskaan hatne ka naam nahi le rahi thi.
Veer ko thaame woh sakri galiyo ki gehrayiyo me chalti gayi. Ek sabse chhipe hue kone ko dhoondh usne dheere se Veer ko neeche baithaya.
Woh uski orr jhuki aur uske labo ke paas aayi.
Garofano (smiles) : You just have to wait here. Okay, honey? I’ll settle this quickly.
Aur, neeche jhuk ek jhatke me usne Veer ke honth apne hontho ki giraft me bhar liye.
“Nnnnn~”
Ek siski Garofano ke muh se nikli. Aur, tabhi-
*Ding*
[You have been rewarded 1000 Points.]
Veer ke mann me ek notification ki ghanti baj uthi. Veer, inn points ko enjoy karne ki sthiti me nahi tha. Parantu,
Garofano : Ahhh~!!!
Garofano jhatka lete hue Veer ke hontho se alag hui. Zaahir hai, notification use bhi praapt hua tha.
Garofano (blushes) : W-Wait-!! You get points for this too??? K-Kya aisa isliye hai kyuki hum dono system holders hai? M-My god-!!
Veer toh ye pehle se hi jaanta tha. Pari ne use bata ke rakha tha ki jitni badi hasti ladki hogi, jitni behtar woh hogi uss hisaab se system use ladki ke sang intimate hone par points dega. Ye pehli baar tha jab Veer ne kisi system holder ladki ke hontho ko chooma tha.
Aur, Garofano ka iska na pata hona saaf darshata tha ki woh iss baat se anibhigya tha. Jiska kaaran sirf ek hi tha~
Usne kabhi bhi kisi aur mard ke saath koi bhi intimate relationship nahi rakha tha. Zaahir tha ki woh iss nayi khoj se poori tarah hairan thi. Saath hi kuch excited bhi.
*Skrrrrrrrrrrr*
Agle hi pal usne Veer ki shirt ko pakad ke kheecha aur shirt beech se fatati chali gayi. Saari buttons toot ke bikhar gayi.
Garofano (leans further) : Th-Then kya hoga agar-!? *smiles* Agar hum aur aage badhe, honey???
Uska haath Veer ke nange seene par firta hua upar jaane laga. Veer ke badan par ruye khade ho gaye. Ek sihran uski poore shareer me fel gayi.
Par, punah qadmo ki awaaz ne Garofano ke mood ko kharab kar diya.
Garofano : Jab ye sab khatam ho jayega. Mein tumhe apne saath leke chalungi, Veer. Wait for me here~
Veer chhaya me bina kisi sahayta ke bas laita hua dekhta raha jab tak ki Garofano gali se baahar nahi nikal gayi.
Aur, use kuch pal baad turant hi baahar ki awazein spasht roop se sunayi dene lagi.
Ethan : Hahahaha! Dekho zara kaun aaya hai. Arre? Woh ladka kaha hai? Lagta hai tumko chorr ke darr ke bhaag gaya. Hmm?
Garofano : Bhaag gaya? Hmph! He never runs away. Balki, tumhe apne baare me socha chahiye.
Ethan : Kya bakwaas hai? Nahi! Tumse yaha baat karna bewakoofi hai. Jao pakdo use!!
Halaki, thodi derr ki khamoshi ke baad, kuch bhaari gad-gadahat zameen par goonj gayi. Jaise maano kayi insaan neeche zameen par gir gaye ho. Aur, fir kisi ki ek kamzor kaapti hui awaaz aayi-
“Y-Ye kaise ho sakta hai? Ye ek ladki???”
Ethan ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi. Woh dehshat me chillaya.
Ethan : Y-Ye-!? Ye kaise-!? Kaise sambhav hai?
Garofano : Maine tumhe waqai me halke me le liya tha Ethan. Mujhe nahi laga tha ki tumhari tarah ek pyaada mujhe itni pareshaniya dega.
Ethan : ???
Garofano : Tum aur tumhara bhai dono hi mere shikaar the. Choonki, tumhare zariye maine Mr. Nicholson ko marwa hi diya. Ab baari aati hai tumhari- Right? *smiles*
Ethan (shocked) : M-Mere se marwaya-!?? K-Kya matlab hai tumhara?
Garofano bas muskurayi.
Ethan (screams) : M-Matlab woh tum thi jisne ye afwaah felayi thi ki jaydaad ka batwara hone waala hai???
Garofano (smiles) : Lagta hai tum itne bhi bewaqoof nahi, Ethan!
Poori gali me ek shaanti chhaa gayi.
Aur, iske baad Veer ko ek aur shareer ke girne ki dhamak mehsoos hui. Chand seconds ke baad hi, Garofano dobaara uske saamne haazir thi. Uske hontho par muskaan wesi hi feli hui thi.
Veer (frowns) : T-Tum-!? Iska matlab tum?
Woh hasi. Usne Veer ko punah apni goad me uthaya jaise maano Veer uska chhota beta ho. Use pyaar se apni baaho me liye woh alley ke baahar nikalne lagi.
Garofano : Kya soch rahe ho, Veer? Kya kuch kehna nahi hai?
Veer (growls) : So, it was you-!???
Garofano (smiles) : Of course! Aur, kaun ho sakta hai? Charles Nicholson aur Ethan Nicholson dono hi mere shikaar the. Khaas kar Charles Nicholson!!
Garofano ne apne rang aise badle the jaise girgit badalti thi. Kaha woh 'Dad-Dad' ki ratt lagayi hui thi aur kaha ab woh ye besharmo ki tarah qubool kar rahi thi ki iske peeche uska hi haath tha.
Garofano (frowns) : Mere asli Mom-Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki laparwahi se hi maare gaye the Veer.
Veer : ???
Woh Veer ko baaho me liye aage badhti jaa rahi thi aur apni kahani sunani jaa rahi thi.
Garofano : Mere Mom Dad iss Charles Nicholson ki ek factory me kaam karte the. Factory me aag lagne se unn dono ki jaan chali gayi. Aur, iss haram-zaade ne apne staff ko marne diya tha.
Veer : ??
Veer ko samajh aaya. Iska matlab woh Ryongchon Disaster me Garofano ke maa baap ka marna? Maatra jhooth tha.
Garofano : Iske peeche tab koi gang padi hui thi. Building ki zyada tehqiqaat na ho isliye isne case close kar diya tha. Jitne staff ke log maare gaye, unke baare me koi sawaal na kare isliye sabko ghoos khila ke isne saara maamla rafa dafa karwa diya tha.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Dad? Kaisa Dad? Ye woh aadmi tha jisne baad me unhi mare logo ke parivaar ke anaath logo ke saath shoshan kiya tha. Aur, iska plan toh mujhe bhogna bhi tha. Of course, aisa maine kabhi hone nahi diya.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Khubsoorat hone ke naate Charles mujhe kaise bhi kar ke bhogna chahta tha. Isliye, mujhe apni beti bana ke apne sang le gaya. Aur, tabhi mujhe system bhi mil gaya. Jis cheez ki mujhe talash thi wo mujhe akhir mil hi gayi.
Veer : ...
Garofano : Charles ko apni baato me fusla ke dheere dheere mein uske nirnayo par haawi hone lagi. Mein use apne khud ke banaye gaye sedatives deti jis se woh mere niyantran me rehta tha. Uske mann me maine apni ek atoot chhavi bana li thi. Magar, adanga tha ye Ethan Nicholson.
Veer : Huh?
Garofano : Ye China me rehta tha. Lekin, iski poori nazar jaydaad par thi. Ye apne bhai se aur mujhse bhi nafrat karta tha. Mein hi thi woh jisne jaydaad baatne ki afwah felayi thi. Yaha tak ki will ki baat bhi jhooth hai. Mujhe pata tha ki Ethan apne bhai aur fir mujhe maar ke jaydaad par haq jatayega. Isliye, maine afwah fela di ki batwara ho raha hai.
Veer : ???
Garofano : Jabki aisa kuch bhi nahi hone waala tha. Gusse me aake, Ethan ne woh chaal chal hi di jiski mein na jaane kitne samay se aasha kar rahi thi. Ethan ne apne hi bhai ko maar daala. Aur, isi ke saath mera badla bhi poora ho chuka tha. Jaise jaise maine pyaade baithaaye the sabhi ne bilkul wesa hi kaam kiya tha.
Veer : ??
Garofano : Ab baaki tha toh sirf Ethan ke crime ke saboot police ko dena, par tabhi Renshu ne apni taang ada di.
Veer : P-Poison???
Garofano : Huh? Ohh! Of course body me paaya gaya poison mera hi tha. Renshu sach keh raha tha. *smiles* Maine Charles ki body me sui bhi ghopi thi aur poison bhi inject kiya tha. You know? Just to make sure he was dead. Lekin, woh pehle hi adhmara ho chuka tha. Ethan ke aadmiyo ne use pehle hi maar diya tha. I mean... Almost...! Fufu~
Veer (frowns) : A-Alibi-!?
Garofano : Hmm? Ohh? You mean agar mein apni workshop se bahar nahi nikli thi to crime location par pahuch ke woh needle kaise ghusedi? Right? Oh Veer! I'm a system owner. Kya ek system owner darwaze se hi aa jaa sakta hai? I jumped from the terrace. Fufu~
Veer ko ab sab samajh aa raha tha. Sab kuch Garofano ka hi plan tha. Yaha tak ki woh khud ek besahara naari ka vesh-bhusha banaaye khud ko nirdosh jataate hue inn sab ke peeche asli hatyari thi.
Garofano Veer ko car ki taraf le gayi. Veer ne dekha ki kaise sabhi ke sabhi log neeche sadak par behosh pade hue the.
*Click*
Darwaza khol back seat par Garofano ne bade hi komalta se Veer ko litaaya. Veer ka sarr car ke khule darwaze ki taraf tha jaha Garofano khadi hui thi.
Woh jhuki aur uske chehre ko pakad uske nazdeek aayi.
Garofano : But as I said~ I won't let anyone harm you!
Veer : Tch-!!!
Garofano : Iss tarah se mat dekho Veer. Dil dukhta hai. Charles ke saath wahi hua jo wo deserve karta tha. Also, Ethan ko mein nahi dekhungi. Use to police dekh legi. Sab kuch maine audio video sab record kar rakha hai. I have a hidden camera here~
Usne apne shrug ki ek badi si kaali button ki orr ishara karte hue kaha.
Woh muskurate hue jhuki, Veer ke hontho ko punah choomne ke liye par tabhi-
'Huh!!!???'
*Gwakh*
Ek mazboot haath ne uske gale ko daboch liya. Garofano ke hosh udd chuke the. Woh bhaybheet hote hue neeche Veer ko dekhi, jo uske gale ko jakde hue tha.
P-Par ye kaise? Veer hilne dulne ki haalat me nahi tha. Uska paralysis toxin kam se kam 3 ghante tak asardar rehta tha. Aur, toh aur system ki shop me bhi iska koi upaay nahi tha.
Iska upaay ya to yahi tha ki 3 ghante tak intezar kiya jaaye ya fir anti-paralysis toxin ka istemal kiya jaaye jiski vidhi sirf aur sirf uske hi paas thi.
Garofano ke paseene chooth rahe the. Veer ke chehre par koi bhaav nahi the. Aur, fir usne bolna shuru kiya.
Garofano : V-Veer-!? T-Tum-!?
Veer : Mein jaanta tha shuru se hi ki ye sab tumhara dhong tha.
Garofano : Ahh!??
Veer : Kyuki, poison sirf tumhare aur Renshu ke paas tha. Renshu khud hi body me poison dalwa ke mujhe autopsy ki report nahi bhejega. Isme koi shaq nahi tha ki body me poison tha. Aur woh poison do hi logo se aa sakta tha. Renshu and you!!!
Garofano : Ughh! Th-That's-!
Veer : Erica aur Renshu ka meri itni madad karna wahi dusri orr tumhara mere nazdeek aana, khul ke saari details bhi na dena aur sach ko chhipana. I already saw through it.
Garofano : T-To s-say such a thing-
Veer (smiles) : I was just seeing how far you will go.
Garofano (frowns) : K-Kaise-!? I knew I-
Veer (smiles) : You pricked me? Are you sure? *grins* Kya waqai tumhari sui meri kalaayi me dhasi thi?
Garofano : Urggh!!
Gale par Veer ki pakad mazboot ho rahi thi. Par, Garofano bas uski kalaayi ko thaami thi. Virodh nahi kar rahi thi.
Garofano : I-I... I did-!!
Veer ne tabhi apni shirt ki wrist ki button kholi aur usme se ek eraser jaisa kuch baahar nikal ke gira, jise dekh Garofano ki aankhein hairangi me fel gayi.
Veer : Tumhari needle meri skin me nahi iss kneadable rubber eraser me ghusi thi. And you thought- *grins*
Paansa palat chuka tha. Jaha pehle Garofano poori tarah se Veer par haawi thi aur soch rahi thi ki sab kuch uske plan ke hisaab se hi gaya parantu, ab drishya ekdum ulta tha. Ab woh khud Veer ke qabze me thi.
Garofano (shocked) : Wh-When did you-!?
Veer (smiles) : You don't need to know that.
Veer ne agle hi shan use ek baar me chorr diya. Garofano apne gale ko pakadte hue peeche hui aur lambi lambi saansein lene lagi. Veer abhi bhi usi tarah araam se car me leta hua tha aur iss baar wo tha jo muskura ke use dekh raha tha.
Garofano : T-Tumbe mujhe... Yuhi chorr diya?
Veer (smiles) : I believe you!
Garofano : Huh?
Veer : Because I know you won't hurt me.
Badle me woh bhi muskurayi. Punah uski orr aage aayi. Veer shan bhar ke liye sachet hua par jab uske tapte garam honth aake Veer ke hontho par lage toh woh kuch kehne ki haalat me hi na raha.
*Kiss*
Ek chhoti si hi kiss thi. Khud ko dur ko Garofano muskurayi. Itna sab hone ke baad bhi woh Veer ko kiss karne se peeche nahi hatt rahi thi. Chand pal pehle hi Veer ne uske gale ko jakad rakha tha.
Garofano : Tumhe yaha se jaana chahiye Veer. Mujhe ye sab settle karne me ek din kam se kam lagega hi lagega. Zyada bhi lag sakta hai. Toh mein mine ke matter ke liye tumhare saath nahi aa paungi. I'm sorry. But tum jaante ho ki mujh par bhi sanctions lage hai. Inn dino mein busy rehne waali hu.
Veer : Got it!!
Woh tabhi daud ke apni workshop me gayi aur ek packet baahar leke aayi.
Veer : What's this?
Garofano (smiles) : It's a shirt! Meri taraf se. Tumhare liye. It's all black!!!
Veer : Ohh? Thanks, I guess?
Garofano uski collor pakad use kheench ke uske kaan ko apne labo tak laayi aur fir haule se boli,
Garofano : Mine ke matter ke liye, Renshu tumhare saamne do prastaav rakhega Veer. Pehla ki tribal logo ki territory me jaana aur ladna. Aur, dusra ki seedha Legion ke Head Jaw Long ke paas jaana aur usko khatam karna.
Veer : ???
Garofano : And if you're smart enough. Then, you know what to choose right? Galti se bhi Jaw Long se ladne ke liye khud ko aage mat karna. Your safety is important. Mein aas paas nahi rahungi, so I won't be able to help you out.
Veer : I know what to do. Don't worry!
Garofano (frowns) : Veer please~!!! Jaw Long se ladne tum nahi jaoge. Kya tum khud ki safety ke baare me nahi soch sakte? Tumhari family bhi hai. Don't take risks.
Veer : I know!
Garofano (nods) : Mein jald hi aaungi. Till then... Take care...!
Woh Veer ke gaal par haath ferr waha se nikal gayi. Zaahir hai usne police ko call kar diya tha. Aur, sab kuch police ko saupne waali thi. Ethan ab chaah ke bhi iss se baahar nahi aa sakta tha.
Toh wahi Veer Renshu ki car leke wapas uske ghar ke liye nikal chuka tha.
Car me hi uske mission ki notification uske dimag me goonj chuki thi.
*Ding*
['Mission : Unmask the culprit' has been completed.]
[You have been rewarded 3000 points.]
Veer ne case ko handle karne se pehle hi Intelligence 10 points se badha liya tha. Woh jaanta tha ki yaha pe dimaag ke ghode daudaane ki zaroorat thi. Aur, woh extra 10 intelligence ne hi aaj use bacha liya tha.
Woh aage aane waale dino ke baare me sochta hua gaadi sarpat raaste par daudata chala gaya.

Mumbai...
Kaera's home...
Night ~ 10:12 PM
Ghar me jhunjhlate hue aaj pehli baar Kaera apne kamre me aayi. Uske iss ravaiyye se ghar me maujood kaam karne waala saara staff hairaan tha.
Aisa aam taur par nahi hota tha. Kabhi kabhi hi woh log Miss Kaera ko gusse me dekh paate the.
Julia jo ki Kaera ke kamre me saaf safaayi hi kar rahi thi, apni Miss ko gusse me aate dekh thodi aashcharya me reh gayi.
Usne dekha ki peeche peeche Karan bhi aaya hua tha.
Julia : Eh!??
Kaera aate hi bistar par baith gayi. Aur, apni aankhein band kar na jaane kin vicharo me leen ho gayi.
Julia : I-Is something the matter? Master Karan?
Karan : A-Actually, hua ye ki... Jis company se hamari deal hone waali thi. Woh company achanak hi Elite Motors se deal kar li. Aur, Elite Motors... You know very well...! Sonia di-!!!
Julia : Ahh! I see!
Karan : Dii ka kehna hai ki Ruchika dii ne kuch gadbad kar di. Kyuki, Ruchika dii ne jaisa bataya tha aur jaisa plan kiya tha wesa kuch hua nahi. Balki, Elite Motors ne woh sab pehle hi kar diya tha. Mujhe nahi pata ki unn logo ne ye kaise kiya. Kaise deal dii ke haatho se leli... But, kuch gadbad hamari hi taraf se hui hai, I think.
Julia : I see!
Karan : Dii ka dhyaan rakhna Julia please. She's mad right now.
Julia (smiles) : Don't worry Master Karan.
Karan itna bol waha se nikal gaya. Parantu, Kaera ka mood aise hi sahi nahi hone waala tha. Kabhi aisa nahi hua tha. Upar se Sonia-!!!!
Kaera : Where's Veer Julia?
Veer ki jankari ikhatta karne ka kaam Kaera ne Julia ko hi saupa tha. Julia sirf maid nahi thi. Uske neeche bhi maids thi jo uske liye kaam karti thi. Woh maids jo ghar se leke baahar ke kaamo me bhi maahir thi.
Julia : You keep pushing him away. Why would he care?
Kaera : Wh-What!??? A-Aisa kab hua? Maine kab use khud se dur kiya?
Julia : When was the last time you had a beautiful chat with him?
Kaera : I-
Woh maun reh gayi. Use waqai yaad nahi tha ki akhiri baar Veer ke sang baith ke usne kab baat-cheet ki thi.
Julia : I keep telling you, young miss!
Kaera (glances) : Huh?
Julia : Do you know what's the meaning of a 'good woman'?
Kaera : A good woman?
Julia : A good woman never points out the unnecessary flaws of her partner. A woman's role is to support her man.
Kaera : Huh?
Julia : You are someone who can make Young Master Veer feel like a king just by being beside him. That's what a good woman does. She can boost the confidence of her man no matter what the situation remains.
Kaera : M-Mein jaanti hu but-
Julia : A good woman will never say 'You are lucky to have me.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Mein aisi nahi hu Julia. H-How can I-!?
Julia : A good woman will never say 'Earn more money.' to her partner.
Kaera : M-Maine kab?
Julia : You did it indirectly. Weren't you the one who told me you want Young Master Veer to become more rich in order to have you?
Kaera : Ahh-! N-No-! You misunderstood Julia!
Julia : And lastly...
Kaera : Huh???
Julia : A good woman is never too busy for her partner. When she's asking the whereabouts of her partner from her maid...! That explains everything!
Kaera (frowns) : J-Julia-!!!
Kaera pehle se hi pareshan thi. Upar se Julia ne uske dil par ghaat aur pahucha di thi. Kintu, Julia ne jo kuch bhi kaha tha woh apne dil se aur sach hi kaha tha.
Julia Kaera ko akela chhor baahar jaane lagi par jaate jaate woh darwaze ki dehleez par ruki,
Julia : Please! Take down your mask, young miss. You don't need any mask in front of Young Master Veer.
Kaera : I-
Julia : This time you lost just the deal. If you keep behaving like this... You might lose Young Master Veer himself.
Kaera : Huh!????
Aur, itna bol Julia waha se ravana ho gayi. Reh gayi toh bas Kaera aur uski aankhon se behte aasu.
