The two C.B.I. officers took Neil with them. Everyone in the home was very tense. Especially Karishma and Pushpa ji. Haseena said,

HM: Hum yanha haat par haat rakhe nahi baith sakte. Hume Rockstar ko jald se jald chhudana hoga.

KS: Aap thik kah rahi hain, Maddam sir. Par usse pahle hume patidev ke paas jakar unse milna hoga. (Emotionally) Pata nahi kis halat mein honge woh. 

AS: (putting his palm on her shoulder) Behna aap chintit mat hoyiye. Hum abhi unke paas jaakar pata lagayenge ki akhirkaar baat kya hain. Aur iss case ke baare mein padtaal bhi karenge.

CC: Magar sir C.B.I. walon ne hume iss case se door rakha toh?

SS: Cheete, par hum atleast unse request toh kar hi sakte hain naa?

HM: Agar hume unn logo ne iss case se door rahne ko kaha toh bhi hum is case ko unofficially handle karenge jaise humne apne Thane ki kayi case aise unofficially handle kiye hain. Hum kisi bhi kimat par Rockstar ko begunah sabit karke rahenge.

AS: Haan, bhale hi anaupacharik shaili se hi sahi parantu iss case ka samadhan hum avashya nikalenge. Kintu hume iss baat ka bhi dhyaan rakhna hoga ki humare kuch bhi karne se Jija ji ke liye koi musibat na khadi jo jaaye. Philhal hume nikalna hoga. Hum, Haseena ji, behna aur Vishwas ji jaayenge.

KS: Haan bhaiyya, jaldi chaliye hume patidev se jald se jald milna hain.

All apart from KAREENAV and VK: Hum bhi aayenge aapke saath mein.

AS: Nahi, hum wanha adhik logon ko nahi le jaa sakte. Aap sab yanhi rahenge. Hum aapko doorbhash karke sab bata denge.

While they were going to the C.B.I. office Vishwas got a urgent call. After the call he said,

VK: (hurriedly) Maaf kijiyega Karishma ji, meri maasi ka accident ho gaya hain mujhe abhi jald se jald jaana hoga.

He lied. KarEenaV felt bad for him and told him to go. He went for his actual work
______________________________________

Vishwas comes to a dark room, two men were waiting for him there. He sit on a big chair there and smiled. He said to the men.

VK: Achchha kaam kiya tum dono ne. Itni chalaki se safayi karmachari banke bina C.C.T.V. camera ke chapet mein aaye bina tum dono ne woh drugs wanha rakh bhi di. Shabbas mere sheron. Ab yeh bataon ki C.C.T.V. camera se kaise bache?

The goons' names were Ranga and Billa.

R: Boss, kuch zyada nahi kiya humne. Maine ek aisa chemical chhidka ki cabin mein ki har taraf dhoova dhoova kar diya. Iss dhuve ke wajah se hum kisi ko dikh nahi paaye. Humare paas khas chashme the jisse hum sab kuch dekh sakte the.

B: Aur uss dhoove ki aadh mein maine apne hunar se woh locker khol ke aapne diye hue drugs ke packets usme rakh diye. Aapko toh pata hi haina ki main apne haat ki safai se bina chabi ke bhi tale kholne mein expert hoon.

VK: (pressing the teeth) Jitna poocha jaaye utna hi bataya karo. Zyada udne ki koshish mat karo. Mujhe pata hain ki tum isme expert ho, isliye toh tumhe iss kaam mein lagaya tha.

B: (looks down) Sorry boss.

VK: (rudely) Ab yeh bolo ki yanha itni jaldi mein kyun bulaya mujhe?

R: Boss, woh videsh se kuch log drugs ke deal ke liye aanewale hain bas dus minutes mein, unka phone aaya tha. Isliye aapko bula liya.

VK: Thik hain. Ab tum dono bahar jaakar baitho. Jaise hi woh aaye unke hatiyaar sab nikal ke ander bhej do. Samjhe?

BOTH: Ji Boss.

After 10 minutes, the 2 buyers of drugs came to meet him. Ranga and Billa already kept their weapons with them. They entered and sat on the chairs infront of VK.

BUYER 1 (B1): I hope ki hume aane mein deri nahi hui?

VK: Nahi, aap log bilkul time pe aaye ho.

BUYER 2 (B2): Toh ab uss deal ko poora kare? Hume woh drugs ke do.

VK: Drugs tab hi milenge jab aap log mujhe mere drugs ki kimat ada karoge.

B2: Paise hum log laaye hain. Yeh lo (giving him a bag) pure hain chahe gin lo.

VK: Uski koi zaroorat nahi hain. Main sirf unn beimaan logo ke saath deal karta hoon jo paise dene mein imaandaar ho.

B1: Nice! Ab tum jaise aur hum jaise log hain tab tak iss desh ko drugs ke chapet mein laakar barbad kar denge.

Vishwas smiled a little and gave them the two bags of drugs.They left from there. Then Vishwas called Ranga and Billa and told them to be underground for some days. Both of them went from there.

As soon as they left, Vishwas pressed a button on the wall and a secret door opened. It was a bedroom door. He stepped inside. The was room was filled by Karishma's photos. He came in front of a big photo of Karishma which he had clicked without asking her and unknown to her in a bar 🍺 in which Haseena and Karishma had gone to solve a case some days ago. They were in western dresses. They couldn't see him but his lusty eyes caught Karishma.

VK: Hello, my baby, I know tum abhi pareshaan ho. Sach kahu toh jab tum ro rahi thi tab mujhe bilkul accha nahi laga tha (pout). Magar kya karoon kabhi kabhi aisa karna padta hain. Agar main aisa na karta toh tumhara woh bewakoof pati humare beech se kaise jaata.Iss case se toh jaldi jaayega nahi. Aur jab tak woh bahar aa aayega, tab tak tum meri ho chuki hogi. Aur agar usne phir bhi hum dono ki beech mein aane ki koshish ki toh... (smirked)... You know what I mean! Waise chahta toh main yeh sab karne ke bajaye directly usse maar sakta tha. Par kya hain naa, I want ki woh tumhare nazro mein gir jaaye. Saare saboot uske khilaf hain. Woh muzrim sabit ho hi jaayega. Aur tum thehri itni imaandaar ki ab ek muzrim ke saath rehna toh pasand nahi karogi. Ab bus kuch din aur phir tum mere saath meri bahon mein rahogi. Love you my Karishma, Karu... (smiled)

------

Here in the C.B.I. office. The officers were interrogating Neil.

OFFICER 1 (O1): Ab tum sach sach batao ki yeh drugs ka dhanda kabse karte aa rahe ho.

NS: Dekhiye hum aapse sach kah rahe hain ki hum koi drugs ka dhanda nahi karte hain.

OFFICER 2 (O2): Jhoot mat bolo. Yeh drugs tumhare cabin ke ke locker mein se mile hain. Us locker ko toh tum akele hi kholte ya band karte ho naa? Phir yeh tumhi ne rakha hoga na. Jhoot bologe toh hum logo ka deemag kharab hoga phir woh tumhare liye hi sahi nahi hoga. Aur agar sach bataoge toh tumhare liye hi faydemand hoga. Ho sakta hian ki tumhe kam saza mil jaaye. Ab yeh gidgidana band karo. Aur sach kya hain ugal do warna tumhare saath jo hoga, uske jimmedaar sirf aur sirf tum honge.

NS: Dekhiye sir, hum maante hain ki humara locker ko sirf hum hi handle karte hain magar yeh gira hua kaam hum nahi kar sakte hain. Hume sach mein nahi pata ki woh drugs wanha kaise aaye. Sir, humari maa, patni, dost aur saale sahab yeh sab police force mein hain. Deshbhakti aur sachchai humare khoon mein bahati hain. Ab aap hi sochiye hum kyun aisa gira hua kaam karenge?

NS: Aur humara business bahut achche tarike se chal raha hain. Itna kama lete hain ki hum ki zarooraton ke saath khwahishein hi poore ho jaaye humare. Hume koi zyada paison ka lalach bhi nahi hain. Toh hum ye drugs ka dhanda karna toh door uske baare mein soch bhi nahi sakte. Aur maiyya kasam sir hum koi jhoot nahi bol rahe hain.

The officers were going to ask him again but a peon interrupted,

PEON: Sir, bahar kuch log aap se milne aaye hain.

O2: Unhe kaho ki intezaar kare, yanha kuch zaroori kaam chal raha hain.

PEON: Sir, woh log police hain. Aur kah rahe hain ki iss drugs ke case ke baare mein baat karna hain.

O1: Thik hain, hum aa rahe hain. (To O2) Chaliye yanha se, ise baad mein dekh lenge. Abhi unn logon se milte hain.
(to poen) Suno, isse dusre room mein le chalo. Wanha par hi sach bolega yeh...

---------

They both came into their cabin. They recognized them. They were Haseena, Anubhav, and Karishma.

O1: Ohh... toh aap log aaye hain.

KAREENAV: Ji haan.

O2: Kamal ki baat hain naa! Gharwaale kanoon ke rakshak hain aur yeh banda kanoon ko todne ka kaam kar raha hain.

The trio was hell angry.

AS: (angry) Maryada se baat kijiye, mahoday. Abhi woh keval aropi hain. Aparadhi siddh nahi hue hain. 

HM: Aur kabhi honge bhi nahi. Yeh sirf Neil ko fasane ki sazish hain.

O1: Achchha... Aur kaun kar sakta hain sazish?

O2: Kisi par shak hain aapko.

HM: Philhaal toh nahi. Par Neil ne bahut kam dino mein apni mehnat se apna business successful karke dikhaya hain. So, unse jalne wale kam nahi hain.

O2: Kya kaha aapne? Neil Singh bahut kam time mein ek successful businessman ban gaye.

O1: Ab isse zyada kya saboot chahiye ki ek paisa usne galat tarike se kamaya hain.

KarEenaV was getting angry. 

HM: Yeh kaisa behuda logic hain? Agar koi insaan kam samay mein bahut kuch achieve kar leta hain toh iske pichhe beimaani ka rasta ho, yeh zaroori nahi hain. Neil ne apne passion, deemag aur kadi mehnat se yeh sab karke dikhaya hain. Aur aap hain ki...

Anubhav held her hand to calm her down. She looked at him. He blinked his eyes. Then, he looked at the officers and said them politely,

AS: Prabhu, dekhiye hum jaante hain ki aap bhi apna kaam kar rahe hain. Hum samajhte hain. Hum swayam bhi iss vibhag ka ek hissa hain. Dekhiye, hume iss prakaran ke baare mein kuch jaankari chahiye. Hum yeh spasht kar denge ki Neil Singh ne koi galat kaam nahi kiya hain. 

O2: Sorry officer, yeh case sirf aur sirf hum log hi handle karenge. Hum kisi aur ke saath iski detail share nahi kar sakte. Aap toh khud police force mein hain. Itna toh aapko pata hona hi chahiye. Ya parivaar ke pyaar mein apna farz bhul gaye aap?

Now, the trio was a volcano 🌋🌋.

KS: (nearly shouted) Amaa o, aap logo se sirf itna hi puch rahe hain ki kya aap iss case mein hum bhi aapka saath de sakte hain kya? Aur aap hume jo yeh bol rahe hain naa ki parivaar ke liye farz ko bhul gaya toh hum bata dete hain ki hum sab uss parivaar hain jo apne farz ke liye apni jaan de bhi sakta hain aur dushman ki jaan le bhi sakta hain. Kya samjhe?

AS: Behna aap shant ho jaayiye.
(To officer) Dekhiye hume achchhi tarah se baat gyat hain ki apna karya apne parivaar se pahle aata hain. Hume pata hain ki humare Neil nirdosh hain, aur agar woh nirdosh saabit nahi hue toh vishwas kijiye humara hum khud unhe kadi se kadi shiksha dilwayenge.

O1: Dekhiye hum aapki bhavnao ko samajhte hain. Aakhirkaar woh aapke apne hain. Magar yeh aapko bhi pata hain ki hum protocols nahi tod sakte. Hume maaf kijiye magar hum aapko iss case ke regarding kuch bhi nahi bata sakte.

KS: Thik hain officers, aap kuch mat batayiye hume. Magar hum aapko kuch batate hain ab, 24 ghanton mein hum humare patidev ko begunah sabit kar denge, 24 ghanton mein. Abhi raat ke 10 baj rahe hain, aur kal raat ke 10 bajne ke pahle woh humare saath honge. Yeh humara wada hain. Aur hum ek aur wada karte hain ki agar hum aisa na kar sake toh kal hum istifa de denge. Aur yeh pura Lucknow jaanta hain ki Karishma Singh apni wade ki kitni pakki hain. Aap ulti ginati karna shuru kijiye. Sirf 24 ghante mein hum dubaara yanha aayenge apne pati ko yanha se ba-izzat le jaane ke liye.

Haseena and Anubhav looked at her surprisingly. They were with her but they didn't like that she told them as she could resign if she doesn't prove Neil as innocent. But they knew this time is not about to argue with her. Haseena put her hand on Karishma's shoulder and said,

HM: Ab jab wada kar hi diya hain toh hum bhi iss wade ko nibhane ke liye koi kasar nahi chhodenge. Thank you, officers, apna keemti time hume dene ke liye. Hum chalte hain.

They were about to go when they saw a peon taking Neil to another room. They all looked at him. He too looked at them. Haseena was in tears. Anubhav too is in a bad state but he didn't show. Neil blinked to Haseena that he was fine. Then, he saw his life, his wife, Karishma. Their eyes met. It was very difficult for both of them. Karishma wanted to run and hug him. But she couldn't. She clenched her fits so tightly. Neil too had the same feelings. Their eyes were wet. Anubhav put his hand on Karishma's head. She looked at him. And they left not before assuring to Neil through their eyes.

------

They were in their car. AnuSeena were in the front seats and Karishma was in the back seat.

AS: Ab aap dono ne yeh bol hi diya hain hum bhi aapke saath hain. Iss liye hume abhi se kaam par lagna hoga.

KS: Sabse pahle toh hum ghar mein phone karke bata dete hain ki hum direct kal hi ghar aa jayenge patidev ko begunah saabit karke. Aur Santu- Cheeta ko bhi bula lete hain.

HM: Thik hain Karishma Singh. Philhal ab hume Rockstar ke office mein jaake unke cabin ke C.C.T.V. camera ko check karte hain shayad humare haat kuch mil jaaye. Sir, abhi aap sidhe rockstar ke office chaliye. Pata lagate hain ki kaun hain woh jisne humare rockstar ko badnaam kar raha hain aur kyun badnaam kar raha hain.

KS: Aap sahi kah rahi Maddam sir. Bus ek baar woh humare haat lag jaaye maiyya kasam uska haalat aisa karenga na ki zindagi bhar muh se ekko hi baat bolegi ki DAROGA JI DEKHE TOH BAHUT PAR TUMSA NA DEKHA, zindagi bhar maut ki bhik maangega magar hum usse maut naseeb hone nahi denge. Kyunki iss baar usne sirf ek daroga se nahi balki ek patni se bhi ulajha hain. Zindagi ke saare sambhand tod denge hum uske. Bhaiyya chaliye patidev ke office.

AS: Thik hain. Chaliye bahna.

Hey dear friends, how are you? Hope you guys are doing fine there. I also hope that you liked this chapter. 

Okay, is anybody here who had already read the previous version of this story? If yes, then do you know what I changed here? 

Yaad aa gaya hain toh thik hain par phir bhi main batati hoon. In a previous version of this story, I had written that the '24-hour challenge' was given by Haseena Malik, not by Karishma Singh. But this time, I felt that it should be given by Karishma. Yaar patni hain woh. Dukh sabhi ko hua hain. Par Pushpa ji aur Karishma ke liye bahut bada dukh hain. So, I hope you like this change. If you don't, then I am sorry.
