10.40 AM at Zin bank,

People were buzzing like bees, time was running and work was hectic. An old man around 85 came near the bank counter to deposit hot cash of 50 lakhs. 


'Sir...I've come here to deposit a sum of 50 lakhs to my wife's account. '


'Yes sir...sir y'would have come with someone. At this age still working hats off to you.

'I believe all ends well.'


 

At 10.50 AM a political leader passed in HMG hospital and all his savage monkeys started to get into violence. They broke the hospital properties and other vehicles which are parked on road. They announced 144 emergency call and every shop was closed, and schools and colleges were off. So, the bank was also closed. The old man slowly got in his car and drove till the road ended...that's the last, no one knew what will happen. A guy just hit his car glass with an iron pipe. He was pulled out and stamped by the savage groups and the people who saw this, raised their hands not to save him but to shoot a video for posting on social media. He died on the spot, the police were out of use.



At 10.55 AM, an ambulance came to take his body. In the crowd one guy


'Poor man ...he would've been alive if we would've saved him.'



'Shut your mouth. We can't turn against our government as it consists of savages. If you save him, you won't be alive.'



At 11.00 AM in an abbey father was spelling showers of blessings to all the devotees. There inspector Daniel with his family was attending the mass. A phone call to Daniel from his station about the death of the Old man. He just springs out of the mass and goes to the mortuary and there he sees a mother with her 12-year-old son standing outside the mortuary. He saw that man who was in a disfigured face and scratches on his body. A constable too joined with him and felt guilty as they can't even arrest that politician or the savage groups. 


''Sir, we've to arrest that Bratt politician, and the family will get justice '' said the constable to Daniel. 


''We can't....'' replied Daniel 


''But we have the law, sir..!!''


''Law...!!! (Laughing) oh.., they are the guys who frame laws for their flexibility. 'RULES ARE NOT FOR THE RULERS '.


Look I saw a mother with her 12-year-old child waiting outside. You collect the details and come to the station. The constable collected that details and went to the station and submitted the report to Daniel.


At 1:00 PM

Inspector Daniel goes through the statement given by the woman.

 The FIR filed states that,'' the woman is an old man's daughter and has come from the US after hearing the news. Her husband is the head of that political group, so she can't raise her voice against her father's death. Recently they got a divorce and now she lives in a mansion with her son. She works as an interior designer.''


After reading the statement he closes his eyes and starts to create an illusion, as it seems to be a murder planned by the husband. A rumour warumourng on him that he has a second marriage without knowing his wife. And has a girl child at the age of 22. As this child was from her first marriage. 


At 3.05 PM


Christopher came to cafe day to meet Neha.

He hugged her and sat on the chair and they ordered cold coffee. Neha narrated that their family came up to know about their affairs. She ran out of thought and said breakup with tears in her eyes as her mother was totally against the marriage as she sees caste and religion and also status. After hearing this from his love, he was completely broken and decided to leave that place. When he dragged the chai back he was stab-in-the-back by the savage group head. He dragged his daughter by pulling her hair and throwing her inside the car.


At 3.25 PM, Daniel came and inspected that crime spot. He came up to know that it was done by the guy who was the reason for the old man's death.


Will Daniel be able to catch the murderer and put him behind the bars..??
