Now officers are tensed from these new arrivals. From one car, came out Dcp of Mumbai Cid Shamsher Singh Chitroley and from other one, the DIG Arjun Ranavat. The officers looked at each other.

Daya suddenly felt an urge to look around, his eyes searched for someone but no... he is not there.

Its not that.. Daya is weak no not at all... but some time you need someone beside you although you are strong but u are also a human... and he is also a normal human being.

The two made their way in between the mob and reached at the main entrance where Daya and other officers are standing. They gave a tough look to Daya then said to reporters: dekhiye... abhi tehqiqat chal rahi hain... hum bahut jald Rahul Datta ko dhoondh lein ge... ab aap log ja saktey hain...

Then signaled nikhil . Nikhil started pushing them back but in between one of the journalist asked: or ager qasoor Acp Daya ka hua to aap log kia karein ge... unhein.. bacha to nahi lein ge?

Dcp after giving a look to Daya: ager zarurat parey to... Daya pe bhi karwai ho gi..

Then he signaled Daya to move and left with DIG and Daya. But those media people are not leaving they continued "kab hogi karwai..or kia aap ko bhi lagta hai ke Acp bante hi Acp Daya ka iman dagmaga gaya.."

Here in cabin Dcp asked :kia pata chala..

sir wo hum koshish..

Dig roared : we want result Daya..bahar wo media..

But he stopped because suddenly he felt the noise is no more. He exchanged glance with Dcp and both came out to main hall Daya too follwed them.

Senior Inspector Abhijeet had taken up the command: aap logon se wada hai Cid ka... 24 ghante ke ander ye case solve hoga..na hua to public jo faisla le gi humarey sare officers including Acp sir ko wo manzoor ho ga..per us ke liye aap ki co operation cahiye humein,...aap log public ko shant kijiye or bharkaiye mat... saath hi humein... kaam ka mauqa dijiye..24 ghantey ke bad phir ayiye yahan..tab tak please...(He moved in signalling Nikhil media to disperesd).

He directly moved to DIG and handed a CD with: sir humarey suspect(Rajinder Choudary) ke saath mafia king khan ka connection hai,is CD mein wo pura recorded hai or khan ke aik admi ke peechey... Rajat abhi para hua hai...humein aj hi Rahul ka pata chal jaye ga..

Dig nodded: good work senior inspector Abhijeet..per ye details hume Acp Daya ko dena...

Abhijeet cut him with: unho ne kal humein order diya per us ke bad hum unhein follow up nahi de paye...to hum kamiyab bhi huey ya nahi wo sure nahi they...

Dig nodded : ok tum log baaki ki karwayi karo... me home minister se baat karta hun..is ke khilaf warrant...

Abhijeet again cut him with: sir sirf is ke nahi Rahul Datta ke pita bhi iss gayer qanuni daldal ka hissa hain..

Then signaled to Freddy.

Freddy handed a pen drive. Abhijeet gave it to Dig.

Abhijeet: sir hum bahut din se Cobra gang ke master mind ko dhund rahe they..us ki details wagera... to humein pata ye chala ke...Rahul Datta ke pita hi wo mastermind hain us ke sare saboot is mein hain..kal Sachin aur Freddy ki koshish se ye samney aye..

Dig (took the pen drive) : great job..but achanak un pe shak gaya kiun...

He turned to Daya who looked at Abhijeet for a second then said: ye point senior inspector Abhijeet ka tha sir..

Then gave a meaningful look to Abhijeet and continued :elections se pehle ministers aksar publicity stunt karte hain..to bas for surety ke ye bhi kuch..

The old juniors just smiled seeing how once again the two buddies read each others mind guessed all correct. the new juniors literately in shock or a state of utter bewilderment. Dig praised both the commander and second in command and moved out and Dcp with a sad face followed him.

Daya looked at Abhijeet who was also looking at him and said: najaaneny me tumhara ye ehsaan kese utaroon ga...

And he moved forward and murmured in low voice while going out: boss thanks...

Abhijeet sighed but turned back: Shreya Purvi is case ki puri file complete cahiye mujhe..ok?

And then turn to new juniors handing a CD: is mein dono saboot ki copy hai is ki sari details ki hard copy chahiye takey... file mein koi kaami na rahey..chaho to Acp sir se approval le lo phir shuru ho jao...

They looked down. Freddy smiled, Shreya Purvi moved back to their desk.

Abhijeet turned to Nikhil with: Rahul ke father ke PA ka is gang se taluq hai shayed..to us ke peechey lag jao..ho sakey to ye case bhi 24 ghantey mein niptana hai..

Then to sachin: Sachin tumhein un ghundon ka pata lagane ko kaha tha..

sir... mujhe mere informer ne us sab ki information dene ke liye bulaya ye Dig sir or Dcp sir ke aney se..

Abhijeet signaled him with: chalo aab to gaye wo..now move...

Then said to Freddy: Rajat se regular contact mein raho...me thora dimaagh ka ilaaj kar ke ata hun..

The old juniors with difficulty supressed their smile and all moved to work and Abhijeet too moved for his most important work towards cafeteria.

Here he found as he expected Daya was sitting looking nowhere with blank mind. Abhijeet ordered coffee and sandwitches for two. Then he moved forward towards him.

Daya felt his presence behind him but didnt turn. May be he want to hear his voice want to feel his touch. Abhijeet after waiting for some seconds placed his hand on Daya's shoulder.

ehsaan utaarney ka kia socha phir...?

Daya was not expecting this at all, he turned with a jerk but Abhijeet sit in front of him.

Abhijeet in teasing tone: nahi.. ehsaan rakhna wo bhi apne juniors ka,,..theek nahi na..sirr...

Daya sighed: tum raat bhar kahan they?

arey tab to on duty nahi tha me phir ye sawal..or waise Acp sir ka to farz hai sarey officers ki jankari rakhna aap ne...

He stopped his teasing as Daya punched hard on table.

kiun..wahan jhoot bol rahey they ke sarey orders me ne diye..sach bolne ki himmat nahi rahi kia ab...

Abhijeet looked around,although no other visitors were present in the cafeteria but the staffs are all looking at them only. He knew it will b a nice gossip for them that one of the friends become superior now they quarell.

Abhijeet chewed his words: yahan scene mat banao..or sach ka jhanda lehrana band karo...Dcp or Dig ke agey ager kuch ugla to...

Daya looked down with this well known tone.

Abhijeet took a deep breath: sir aap ko abhi bureau mein hona chahiye hai na?

Daya frustatedly looked up then got up and was about to move but stopped when listen a voice: sandwitch to kha lijiye please sir...

Daya silently stuffed it in mouth drank the already chilled coffee and moved.

Abhijeet murmured : bill Acp sahab ko dena chahiye tha na...(he shook his head in is ka kuch hone wala nahi manner and moved to billing counter.)

Daya entered in bureau and found Freddy saying excitedly: sir Rahul Datta ko jahan rakha gaya us jagah ka pata chal chuka hai...Rajat sir wahin hain.. humein jaldi jana ho ga sir..

Daya nodded : good..chalo phir..or apne Abhijeet sir ko bhi inform kar do...

Abhijeet who was at bureau entrance said in an ordering tone: Freddy Kavin get ready..Ishita HQ se search warrant nikalwao..barey barey log hain na to khatirdari achey tarike se hona chahiye...(then turned to Daya found him looking at him with a smiling expression but he maintained the serious face) sir mujhe ap se kuch discuss karna hai cabin mein chalein?

Daya's smile disappeared and he moved to cabin. Abhijeet was about to follow when Freddy said :sir aap to ilaj karne gaye they...

Abhijeet smiled "arey itne purzey (parts) dheeley hain... waqt lagey ga na.."

And moved in the cabin aftr taking due permission from Acp sir.

..

..

By the evening once again Cid team succeeded. Media by themselves started praising Acp Daya.

Dig visited bureau.

"good balkey excellent job Acp Daya..u have executed the whole in an excellent manner..and your juniors are also a gem i must say.."

He turned to the juniors. For his amazement he found dis satisfaction in eyes of Freddy, unhappiness in body language of Rajat, a rigidness in Sachin and a sad expression over Nikhil Shreya Purvi's face. While the other juniors are really looking somewhat stunned. Only Abhijeet is looking quite normal. He then looked back at Daya on whose face its clearly seen that he may burst a volcano any moment.

"any problem officers?"

Daya looked up and started in stubborn tone: sir ye sarey plans mere nahi..

Dig cut him with: what do u mean..u r the Acp aur tum..

Abhijjet glared hard at Daya then started in his ever convincing tone: sir actually Acp sir ka kehna hai ke wo akele to sab ker nahi patey..all of our officers are also responsible of this sucess..

"o yea sure..congratualation to everyone..and well done..but Acp i must praise your mind..u judged every aspect..good..."

Daya may have again strted but Dig's phone interupted and he left after excusing himself. After he left Daya moved back to cabin and Abhijeet was about to move to his desk when freddy said

"sir ye theek nahi hai.."

Abhijeet turned to them,

Rjat signaled Freddy towards cabin but Freddy continued : sir HQ ko bhi to pata lagna chahiye na ke un logon ne bina wajah ek qabil officer ko us ke qabil aik post se..

"freddy..." Abhijeet's voice was enough to shut freddy.

sorry sir per ye nahi hona chahiye..

Sachin said in extreme low tone: humare Acp Pardhuman sir ke rehte jo jo case ap ne lead kiya us sab ke barey mein to Acp sir ne kabhi credit nahi liya..

Rajat pressed Sachin's arm and signaled to cabin. Abhijeet too noticed it and looked at the direction, Daya was standing at the cabin door. Others still haven't noticed him.

Purvi sighed: Daya sir ko bhi ye acha nahi laga hoga..

Nikhil too added: Abhijeet sir... aap ko baat ghumana nahi chahiye thi .. pura ka pura plan to aap ka...

Daya moved back inside the cabin..shutting close the door. The sound of which made everyone aware of his presence. Rajat sighed heavily.

Freddy mumbled: Daya sir ne sab...

Abhijeet shook his head with :tum logon se ye umeed nahi thi../

then continued: Freddy 17 saal se wo har case jis mein me ne lead kiya tum to jaante ho Daya ne har pal kese saath nibhaya..jo duty akeley mujhe karni thi.. wo sab us ne baant li..kabhi HQ to door Acp sir tak ko khaber nahi pahunchi...aj tumhein us ki qabiliyat kam lagi..

Freddy looked down: sir me wo..

Abhijeet just sighed :Sachin credit aj tak deta hi gaya hai wo... liya nahi..or is case mein shak kiya gaya tha humarey present Acp ke iman per..aise mein aik Senior inspector ne case lead kiya is ka matlab samjhte ho...?

Sachin looked down.

Rajat said: sir ye to bas hum sab ko hi bura laga ke sab bas Daya sir ki..

Abhijeet: Rajat... Daya ki tarif se mujhe bura nahi lagta..mere hisse ka tarif bhi usey miley to bhi nahi..or mujhe is basis pe Acp nahi banaya gaya ke me qabil nahi Daya qabil hai... balkey is basis pe kiun ke medically mujh mein khaami hai..or ye sach hai.. ye tum sab bhi jaantey ho...

He looked away may be to suppress his emotions.

Freddy said : sorry sir..me..

Abhijeet: Freddy tum jantey ho ye sab sun ke Daya ke dimagh mein sab se pehle kia soch aye gi..wo 17 saal purana guilt phir se..wo aj bhi khud ko zimmedar maanta hai.. pata hai na tumhein...

Freddy looked down and others too. Abhijeet sighed frustratingly and moved out completely from the bureau.

The new juniors who had moved to record room after Dig's exit just entered in the bureau and found these people extremly tensed.

Rajat understood well that they may now face questions so ordered these five as : chalo hum aik chakkar cafeteria ka laga ker atey hain...

He said it casually but his voice was enough to say ke chup chap chalo...

After they left the new guys settled on their desks to complete the pending files. They had noticed Abhijeet not there so thought Daya too have left so were in quite relax mood.

..

..

After some moments Daya felt he should speak with his year long colleagues,whom he cant take as juniors. He knew they were hurt he himself was...So..he made his way towards out side the cabin unaware of the more shocks he will going to receive.
