Sameeksha, Abhishek and Manjot entered the police station.

Sameeksha stopped at the door when she saw at Aarushi staring at Sumedh, who was reading a file. Shetty was playing tujhme rabb dikhta hai.

Sameeksha cleared her throat, Sheety immediately stopped the song and Sumedh and Aarushi stood up to salute Sameeksha.

"Yehi sab chal raha hai ya kucch kaam bhi hua hai yaha?" She asked looking at Shetty and Aarushi.

"Hua hai na Madam" Shetty replied. Sameeksha nodded.

"Oye" She called Abhishek and Manjot, "vaha jaake beth jaao" She said pointing at a chair, "pyaar se bolo" Abhishek said.

She looked at him, "Shetty, chairs hata do" She said. Shetty followed her order.

"Ab tum dono, neeche uss carpet pe bethoge. Agar koi problem hai koi baat nhi, ham carpet bhi hata sakte hai" She said.

"Nhi nhi, ham uspe beth jaenge" Manjot said and sat on the carpet. Abhishek gave her a look and then went to sit next to Manjot.

Sameeksha started working and Shetty went to get tea for everyone.

He gave two cups to Manjot and Abhishek, "aapki galati nhi hai Saheb" He said. "Sameeksha Madam ko Commissioner Saheb ka phone aaya tha. Unhone kaha agar case jaldi solve na hua to Madam ka transfer kar denge. Isi lie Madam bhadki hui hai" He explained and left after that.

"Bhai sun na" Abhishek nudged Manjot, "tu kucch kar na" He said, "me kya karu?" Manjot asked. "Abey yaad kar, kucch lead de Sameeksha ko" Abhishek replied.

"Waah bete, khud uss raat pike tunn tha, ab mujhe bol raha lead de" Manjot said, Abhishek rolled his eyes.

"Mere pass jo evidence tha mene de dia" Manjot said taking a sip from his cup of tea.

"Abhishek Manjot, idhar aao" Sameeksha called them, "yehi woh ladki hai?" She asked showing a picture.

"Arey haan! Yehi to thi woh!!" Manjot said, "arey waah, dhoondh lia ladki ko? Shabbash" Abhishek patted on Sameeksha's back.

She gave him a death glare, "jao vaha jaake beth jaao" She said calmly, he lowered his lashes and went to sit on the carpet.

"Manjot, ab me kucch poochungi tumse, acche se sochke batana" She said, he nodded. "Ladka ladki dono same college ke the. Kya tumne aas paas kisi aur student ko dekha tha?" She asked, "nhi" He replied.

"Jo log uss ladke ko peet rahe the, kya woh college students the?" She asked, "shakal nhi dikhi, sabne apna chehra chupaya hua tha" He said. She nodded.

"Sumedh" She called him, "audio forensic expert ko bulvaya?" She asked, "yes Ma'am, bas aata hi hoga" He replied.

*******

Sameeksha and her team were sitting with the audio forensic expert, Manjot was also there.

"Ek video evidence hai, usme audio thoda clear ho sakta hai?" Sameeksha asked, "yes Ma'am" the expert replied and started working on the video.

"Abhishek kaha hai?" Sameeksha asked Manjot, "ghar chala gaya" Manjot replied.

"Usko ghar jaane ki permission kisne di?" She asked, "keh raha tha theek nhi hai, to chala gaya" He replied. She nodded.

"Ma'am isse zada clear nhi hoga" The expert said, "play karo" Sameeksha said.

They listened to the audio carefully. "Ek baar firse play karo" Sameeksha said.

"Ma'am...kokeen ka maal?" Sumedh said unsure, "kokeen nhi, cocaine" Sameeksha corrected him.

"Unke lie kokeen, hamare lie cocaine" She said, "cocaine ka un ladka ladki se kya connection ho sakta hai?" Aarushi asked.

"Ho sakta hai woh cocaine, matlab maal bech rahe ho?" Sumedh said, "yeh bhi to ho sakta hai ke woh cocaine, matlab maal khareed rahe ho. Maal as in paise?" Aarushi said. "Hone ko to kucch bhi ho sakta hai" Sameeksha said.

"Sumedh aur Aarushi, tum dono ek kaam karo, college jaake un ladka ladki ke friends se baat karo. Unke character, hobbies, personality, sab poocho" Sameeksha said, "Shetty, Madh Island Beach ke 10kms radius me jitne bhi drug dealers hai, sabke naam chahiye mujhe" She said, "jo hamare record me nhi hai, unko bhi dhoondhke laao" She said.

Everyone started working on what Sameeksha said.

"Chalo tumhe ghar chod aau, Bandana bhi aa geyi hogi wapas" Sameeksha said to Manjot.

She was about to start the engine of her car, when she got a notification.

It was the GPS tracking app which notified her that Abhishek was more than 13kms away from home.

"Tumne to kaha tha Abhishek ghar chala gaya?" She asked, Manjot nodded, "to ghar se 13 kms door kya kar raha hai woh?" She gritted her teeth.
