Chapter 10
Case Solved
Yash: heya guys, guess who's back?
Daya: calamity?
Yash: nope, it's me CID Officer Yash.
Daya: ek toh tum mere aur Shreya ke bare me likhte nahi aur phir mujhe hi disclaimer ke liye bulate ho, you shameless creature!
Yash: that would be shameless writer, thank you very much. *Yash mocks a bow*
Daya: BTW tum itne dino se the kaha?
Yash: wo mein bhabhiji ke sath Kanpur gaya tha *as Daya gave him suspicious looks and folded his sleeves* are yaar mazak kar raha tha! I was actually waiting for my 100th review for this story. I mean chapter 7 aur 8 ka kul mila kar mujhe sirf 6 ya 7 reviews mile. It won't be fun writing if only few people read your stories ya know. And BTW thank you and congratulations to my 100th reviewer of this story, CID Ki Fan.
Daya: yeah what he said, hey BTW why you think I'm too old for Shreya?
Yash: for one you've been in CID for what, 19 years? And she didn't even last 9 years, 4 tops and she looks like just a mid twenty lady to me.
Daya: you should really do something bout that,
Yash: for the betterment let's note down the ages,
Daya: huh? That might actually be a good idea, you're actually quite intelligent.
Yash: can you tell that to Jhalak? *Yash practically begged*
Daya: isn't your assistant Jhalak already head over heels for her boss?
Yash: that's what I want my girlfriend to-be. Eh too much info bout myself. So the ages are as follows:
ACP Pradyuman: 50
DCP Chitrole (if he made an appearance): 56
Dr Salunkhe: 49
Abhijeet: 30
Daya: 30
Rajat: 29
Dr Tarika: 28
Shreya: 27
Purvi: 28
Vineet: 28
Nikhil: 27
Freddy: 30
Pankaj: 27
Sachin: 29
Karan: 26
Mayur: 26
Ishita: 25
Divya: 25
Yash (prosecutor): 35
Jhalak (assistant): 27
Guess that sums the majority of the cast?
Daya: you're older than me?
Yash: you're complaining about being older to your spouse, so we swapped places,
Daya: as long as I aren't too old for Shreya it's awesome, shall I say the disclaimer?
Yash: yes please,
Daya: CID Officer Yash doesn't own CID or Adaalat though he owns a limited edition replica of CID badge, was that okay?
Yash: you forgot I also own myself and other OCs but it's alright, to the story readers,
Erm so where had we been...? Oh right! The three goons had cornered Purvi, two trying to push her off the running train which was crossing a loooong bridge constructed over the river and other goon was pushing the sack which had the unconscious Shreya.
Why to fear when Rajat's here. A brown flew past the two goons who had almost thrown Purvi. The first one suddenly found himself in Purvi's place, being held by his collar by an angry Rajat while Rajat's one foot was firm pressed on the second goon's chest. Rajat's other hand had tightly embraced Purvi while he glared spears at goon 1. Jhalak quickly came and hit the goon 3 hard with the heel of her sandal (really hurts) and prevented Shreya from falling into the river as she dragged the unconscious Shreya and goon 3 away from the door.
Goon 1 had a horrific sight in front of him. The seemingly possessive guy (of the girl they've been hurting) was giving him murderous looks while his upper body was outside of the train and the lower inside. The horror turned into terror when the goon saw another train coming, ready to snap his head off his body if the other guy didn't pull him up.
"Rajat use upar kheecho" Purvi begged "mar jayega wo, I'm not in a mood to make a report" Rajat grunted and pulled the goon just in time before the engine could tear his head off. But it was too early for the goon to rejoice as Rajat pulled him with such a force that he was thrown out of the door from which his accomplice were trying to throw Shreya from
"AAAAAAHHHHHH" he screeched as a 'splash' was heard
"RAJAT" Purvi deadpanned as Rajat hugged her, his one foot still implanted on the goon 2's chest
"tum thik toh ho na?" Rajat asked worriedly "tumhe dard toh nahi ho raha na?"
"m-mein ek dum thik hoon" it was first time that a male (except her brother) in this fanfiction hugged her. And she loved this feeling
"meine kisi ko pani me khidki se girte dekha" Yash ran into the corridor and scowled at the scene. Jhalak had again knocked out a guy with a blow to head with high heeled sandal, heel as long as a silencer of a pistol while she removed the sack off Shreya's unconscious form. Rajat had a foot planted on a terrified goon's chest and seemingly choking him while he hugged Purvi. The shock was Purvi hugged him back affectionately. As an overprotective big brother it was Yash's right to separate them but why do girls always beat boys, maybe man to it
"ahem ahem" Jhalak fake coughed as RajVi instantly broke, blushing at least 6 different shades of red
"w-wo mein bas" Purvi tucked a stray stand of her hair behind her ear, blushing in embarrassment
"philhal ise dekhte hai" Rajat let his foot relax and caught the goon by his collar
"Jhalak" Yash growled, still glaring arrows at Rajat "Marine Patrol ko use bachane ke liye keh do"
"yes sir" Jhalak struggled herself to give out a grin. Yash was definitely pissed on Rajat
"bata kaun hai is sab ke peeche" Rajat demanded
"n-nahi batavuga" the goon cowered
"batata hai ki" Rajat punched him hard on the face (that's what actually happens inside interrogation room but FW is maintaining their PG-7 rating) "jaldi bol"
"m-mein nahi batavuga" he really chose the worst moment to pretend to be macho as Yash glowered and pushed Rajat a little back
"last chance" Yash informed "chup chap bata warna" as Yash kneed him where no one should causing the goon to scream out in agony as he collapsed to floor
"dude! That was cold" Rajat said impressed
"BHAI" Purvi complained "we can't do that while interrogating"
"I'm not a cop, remember" Yash reminded as he stomped on his chest where Rajat's foot previously connected "I don't need to follow the protocol"
"Now I know why he wins his cases" Rajat mumbled "yaar batade. Inka dimaag garam hai, jayega tu bhi apne sathi ke sath" the goon gulped and looked at his unconscious partner in crime. Sighing he said:
"Diya madam ke liye" the goon informed
"that solves the problem" Yash kicked him right on the neck instantly knocking him out
"BHAI/SIR" Jhalak and Purvi complained "we could've gotten more info"
"nah, that's all this idiot knew" Rajat assured "let's tie them up and throw them with the carriage. BTW did you guys check it"
"all clear" Yash grunted as he knelt down "put Shreya on my back. We'll get her somewhere safe"
"right" as Rajat, Purvi and Jhalak made Shreya climb Yash's back and took her to the A/c compartment. The first coach they found empty, the let Shreya lay there
"alright crew" Rajat called "so here's the plan: mein, Purvi aur Yash sir jakar is Diya madam ki seat kaun si hai pata lagate hai aur Jhalak, tum Shreya ke hosh me aane ka intazar karo"
"take it just in case" Yash pulled out a gun from his sock and handed it Jhalak
"aap ne toh gun use karna bandh kar diya tha na" Jhalak asked
"who knows when we need it" Yash shrugged and turned to Rajat "so what's the plan, sir" sarcasm was dripping from his voice as Rajat seemed a little startled
"erm... well... yeah that, mein keh raha tha mein aur Purvi bahar jo list lagi hai usme dhundhte hai and you can ask Nikhil if his list is checked on some Diya" he said loosening the collar of his shirt
"alright" Yash said through gritted teeth as he walked off
"bejijak gun chalana" Purvi winked at Jhalak but was replied with a smirk causing Purvi to raise an eyebrow. Shrugging RajVi left letting Jhalak think on plotting Rajat's torture by the hands of Yash and teasing Purvi for payback.
Rajat and Purvi walked though the compartments in awkward silence which was soon broken by Purvi
"Rajat" Purvi called as Rajat looked at her "thanks for that, I loved it a lot"
"huh?" asked Rajat astonished as their eyes met and both blushed slightly
"I-I mean you saving me means a lot"
"e-eh never mind" Rajat grinned slightly "pleasured being some use to you"
"college se hi aise flirt the ya Abhijeet sir se kuch seekh liya hai" Purvi teased causing Rajat to look down in embarrassment
"wo toh bas aise hai" said Rajat sheepishly "BTW if you don't mind, what's gotten into your brother"
"oh he's just doing the 'I'm your overprotective Big Brother' thingy, completely normal"
"no I meant why was he trying to suppress the temptation to murder me" asked Rajat
"duh, cause he couldn't murder you and risk me being the incharge of the house while he's in the jail" a sinister gleam filled Purvi's eyes as Rajat wondered what would the raven haired super cop do when she's home alone
"Rajat sir, Purvi ma'am, you there" Ishita's voice came from their hands-free sets
"yes Ishita, what's up" asked Purvi
"you guys are nearing the cross mark" Ishita informed "and it seems somehow Abhijeet sir had boarded the train again"
"alright" Rajat said "can you find the seat number of the name I give ya"
"what's it"
"some Diya" Purvi informed
"just a minute" Ishita must've typed something on her computer "alright, there are three Diya's in here. One in S7, seat number 24, one in A1 seat number 18 and one in seater coach seat number 53"
"alright Rajat and Purvi off" Rajat and Purvi disconnected the transmission.
"okay Purvi" Rajat called "Yash sir is samay A1 ke aas-paas hoge. Call him to grab Jhalak and question the Diya"
"bhai bohut khush hoge" Purvi mumbled "hey, S7: 22 and 23 Daya Sir aur Shreya ki seat thi na"
"yeah" Rajat said thoughtfully "Daya Sir bata rahe the use diamonds ke liye kidnap kiya gaya tha aur uske papa is samay gun point par hai, contact Ishita again"
"right" Purvi redialed bureau
"Mayur here" came the Junior's voice
"Mayur, kyu tum logo ne kisi diamond dealer ko sniper's aim se hata diya hai" asked Rajat
"yes sir" Mayur replied "Sachin sir aur ACP Sir baat kar rahe hai unse. He's all good and is now in CID's care"
"good to know" said Purvi as she hung up "mujhe lagta hai we should go and get this girl away from her so-called in laws"
"right" Rajat nodded and both dashed to Shreya's compartment. When they reached there, 5 out of 6 seats were empty
"yaha par jo ghunghat wali ladki thi kaha gayi" asked Purvi to the people on the side birth
"beta wo log toh pichle station par hi saman liye utar gaye" the lady informed as RajVi exchanged confused glances
"hmm... and we're reaching the X point in two minutes" Rajat said scratching his chin thoughtfully "something's amiss"
"no shit Sherlock" Purvi rolled her eyes "Hey waha dekho" she pointed under the seats "yaha par toh ek bag hai" she retrieved the bag "kya ye aap logo ka hai"
"nahi toh beta" said the old guy siting in the compartment "aap logo ka hai kya"
"humara bhi nahi hai" said the couple at the side birth
"khol kar dekhte hai" said Rajat
"cover the bag as much as possible, just in case" Purvi whispered as Rajat nodded and they covered the bag. Purvi carefully opened the bag and what laid in it stole all the colors of their faces.
Tick... Tick... Tick...
"s-sirf ek minute bacha hai" Rajat gulped seeing the 1 kg RDX loaded bomb
"train ki chain khichiye" Purvi bellowed. The old couple exchanged glances but complied nonetheless. Purvi snatched the bomb and made a dash for the door
"PURVI NAHIIII" Rajat yelled in disbelief, chasing after Purvi. Rajat quickly speed dialed the whole team "we've a bomb at our disposal" Rajat whispered, not to cause a panic in the commuters "and Purvi made a run to get it out of the track's range"
"WHAT" Rajat surely would've gone deaf by everyone's yelling
"KAHA HO TUM" it was Yash's desperate yell
"S7, reach there ASAP" Rajat jumped down the train and saw Purvi running away from the train "PURVI RUK JAV" he ran after her
"RAJAT MERE PEECHE MAT AAV" Purvi pleaded "TRUST ME, I KNOW WHAT AM I DOING"
"PURVI THAT'S RECKLESS" but Purvi used all her might and threw the bomb in the air and KABOOM! The deadly bomb exploded in the mid knocking Rajat and Purvi off their feet. A sonic boom was felt as every passenger peeked out of their window to see the cause of the disturbance "Purvi" Rajat got up, ignoring the throbbing pain, a kind courtesy of the rubble hitting hard on his head and ran towards Purvi "Purvi tum thik toh ho" he patted her cheek but no response. There was a gash on her forehead, maybe a sharp rock hit her as he tried to get her up "Purvi get up" he felt her pulse and sighed in relief when he realized she had just fainted. A few moments later Purvi opened her eyes, grunting as she did so
"argh" Purvi rubbed her newly acquired wound "dard ho raha hai"
"Purvi are you crazy" Rajat hugged her "agar tumhe kuch ho jata toh"
"magar kuch hua toh nahi na" Purvi argued "I'm okay Rajat" as Rajat sighed but didn't let go of Purvi "... um Rajat, now you can let go of me..."
"r-right" Rajat let go of her, his dark skin turning scarlet "s-sorrry... you know, emotions gone haywire"
"yeah" Purvi said awkwardly when they heard
"PURVI" Yash came running but sighed in relief when he saw Purvi was relatively unscratched "pagal ho kya tum" he hugged her, sobbing a little "agar tumhe kuch ho jata toh kabhi socha hai mera kya hota"
"aap ke pass toh ab Jhalak hai na" Purvi teased
"yaha par bhi mazak" Yash broke the hug
"ab roiye mat" Purvi wiped off his tears
"promise me aisa phir kabhi nahi karogi"
"eh sorry, I can't" Purvi sighed "desh ke sath gaddari hogi"
"you and your morals" Yash growled
"you only taught me" Purvi chimed
"WATCH OUT" Rajat warned, pushing himself, Yash and Purvi to the ground as a gun shot flew their overhead "roll out" he pulled out his gun and countered in the direction from where the shot came from
"bhai you're defenseless" Purvi told pushing Yash towards one of the pillars "aap yaha rahiye" she pulled out her own gun
"take care" as Purvi nodded and ran to aid Rajat. She hid behind the pillars and shot at the goons firing from the roof of the training, knocking them down. Rajat rather went head-on, shooting down them.
"reinforcements are here" Daya called as he, Pankaj, Nikhil, Shreya, Jhalak and Abhijeet ran towards the shootout scene
"sir aap ki gun use kar rahi ho" Jhalak called as she shot down one goon
"bindass" Yash called "Abhijeet, tum toh train se utar gaye the na"
"haan par baad me wapis chad gaya" Abhijeet said "ye bomb ka kya manjra hai"
"yaha par bomb blast karne ka plan tha un logo ka" Rajat informed
"then let's get them" said Daya as an all out fist fight broke since most of the goons ran out of ammo. I'm not in a mood to describe the fist fight so let's skip to when all the goons are down
"it still doesn't explain where did that girl go" said Shreya
"shayad mein iska jawab de sakti hoon" a feminine voice called as everyone turned to the source only to find Yash locked in an arm bar and being on the gun point by the same girl Shreya tried to help "mera pura plan fail kar diya tum CID walo ne"
"SIR" Jhalak gasped in horror as the officers pointed their guns at Diya
"jane do sir ko" Rajat ordered
"yaha tum logo ka aadmi mere gun point par hai and you've guts to order me" she strained Yash's arm causing him to grunt in pain
"dekho, Yash ko chor do" said Daya "hum tumhe kum se kum saza dilwane ki koshish karege" but then mumbled "jitni ek terrorist ko di jani chahiye"
"only if sir isn't the prosecutor" Pankaj told
"prosecute toh tab karega jab zinda bachega" she put her finger on the trigger. Purvi motioned something to Yash. He nodded and first hit her arm before instantly ducking down. Purvi shot and the bullet hit Diya on her left shoulder blade. Seeing the opportunity Yash quickly kicked her gun out of her reach as Jhalak forced her to stand up and slapped her tight. The scene changed to CID Bureau, Diya being interrogated by Pradyuman, Daya, Rajat, Purvi and Ishita.
"batav ye sab kyu kiya" Pradyuman demanded
"m-mein Red Snake Gang ke liye kaam karti hoon" Diya informed sniffling "iske liye mujhe bohut paise mile the"
"Red Snake Gang" asked Daya "ye is fiction ki hi organization hai na"
"agar real world me iska asititwa hai phir bhi CID Officer Yash doesn't own it nor has the rights to use it's name" Rajat informed
"not time for disclaimer Rajat" Pradyuman shook his head
"par Yash mujhe disclaimer ke liye kabhi nahi bulata"
"ye terrorism ka toh samajh aa gaya" said Purvi "ye diamonds ka kya manjra tha"
"m-meine socha apne hi aadmiyo se apna kidnap karwalugi aur papa ke diamonds hadap kar unhe cash karwa lugi. Phir papa ko insurance ke paise bhi milege aur diamonds ka cash mere pass rahega"
"lalach insaan ko kha jata hai" Pradyuman said as the signature background music played "ab jail me baith kar hisab lagati rehna, tab tak phasi ka order aa hi jayega"
"actually hearing kal hi hai" Purvi informed as the music abruptly stopped "aur bhai is baar public prosecutor. Ek hi hearing me phasi lag jayegi" she said proudly
"yaar puri feel ka satyanash kar diya" Pradyuman said sulkily "le jav ise Ishita"
"yes sir" she giggled once and took Diya away. Pradyuman also left muttering curses
"kya Purvi, bichare sir ki feelings ko hurt kar diya" Daya shook his head "rukiye sir" he left after his sulky senior
"hey Rajat" Purvi called as he turned to her "thanks a lot. Tum ne aaj meri aur bhai dono ki jaan bachayi hai"
"are Purvi, ye tum kya keh rahi ho" Rajat smiled "tum ne hum sab ki aur train ke sare passengers ki jaan bachayi hai. You're a hero"
"hehe thanks" Purvi said sheepishly
"aur wo toh kya shot tha" Rajat said "mujhe toh pata bhi nahi chala tum ne apne bhai ko kab ishara kiya aur unhone kab react kiya"
"ab puri zindagi sath rahe hai" Purvi grinned "there would be some sync"
"haan wo toh hai" said Rajat "it's quite late now and you're brother's gone to Jaipur. Should I drop you home"
"um... yeah sure" Purvi shrugged and both left on Rajat's bike.
It seems ever since Love Is In The Air, the BMC people have been repairing the roads and now they're quite smooth. And from all the exhaustive activities of the day, Purvi just slumped on Rajat's back, her head resting on his shoulder and snoring lightly as Rajat drove her home.
"kitni pyaari lagti hai ye aise sote hue" Rajat thought but then grimaced "ye mein kya soch raha hoon... snap out of it Rajat, you can't fall for her... uske pass waise bhi bas ab do mahine bache hai... Use khona hi hai toh pana bematlab hai" he sighed "I need to talk to Vineet about this"
Yash: oooo... it seems Rajat just realized he has a crush on Purvi.
Daya: tum aisa mere bare me nahi likh sakte the kya? Aur BMC walo ko bhi yahi time mila tha roads repair karne ka? Mere time kiya hota toh...
Yash: toh tum Shreya par chance nahi mar pate. *as Daya seemed to think it over*
Daya: BMC wale kabhi kabhi aacha kaam bhi karte hai. BTW why did Jhalak slap Diya instead of Shreya or Purvi?
Yash: she asked me. You know she should also get some spot light if I'm the god of this world.
Daya: uh-huh... so what now?
Yash: *rolls his eyes* so stay tuned and please review, a little more.
Daya: Senior Inspector Daya and CID Officer Yash signing off.
