Herbert Halloway was interested in having more questions especially knowing more about their status when one of his bouncers walked rapidly up to him and whispered into his ear. He gazed at the back with a surprise. It seemed he was alerted of an impending danger.
“We will talk later, ladies,” Herbert Halloway said and walked out of their presence.
The disguised Supernumerary police thought they had been gotten. Despite their feigning disinterest in having a conversation with him, they weren’t comfortable with the fact that he was leaving. It was all a strategy they employed so they wouldn’t look desperate and make it seem like a set-up.
Sergeant Clinton and Detective Sam were left awed in the corner where they sat. When he stood up from the presence of the ladies after having a short conversation with his bouncer left them confused and they were twirling their eyes around trying to know what had gone wrong.
They gazed at his rear with their cap as Herbert Halloway walked out of the garden where they sat to the exit with the heavy entourage he came with. Everyone was hailing him as he walked out and he dropped a bundle of naira notes for them and they began to fight over it.
“What’s wrong?” Detective Sam asked.
“I don’t know.”
“Let’s go!” Detective Sam said and went on his toe.
He ensured they spent a few minutes in the hotel before they came out to ascertain that Herbert Halloway and his men had left completely. They went to the main hotel where they were lounging with the ladies. The police commissioner had suggested a government quarter on the Island for the ladies but Detective Sam turned it down knowing that eyes would soon be kept on the ladies and they might in the end be caught.
They didn’t know how long the mission was gonna take and they had been spending a lot of money on the hotels. In fact, their mission would soon begin wholly when Herbert Halloway had finally been caught in their nest.
When they touched down at the hotel, a few minutes later after they had communicated to the ladies, they joined them at the hotel. Detective Sam was on his toe in the room having diverse thoughts trotting through his psyche when he heard the knock on the door. He knew forthwith that it was the ladies and he jumped to the exit to unlock the door for them; he couldn’t wait to hear what was discussed with the Mafia boss.
When they entered, sergeant Clinton went on his toe to make space for them on the bed.
“How was it? What went wrong that made him left?” Sam asked.
“I don’t know,” one of the ladies said.
“So what’s the conclusion of your discussion?” Clinton asked.
“I think we’ve almost conclude our discussion before his bouncer came and disrupt it. Every other things we were discussing are just extra. I think he is interested in us all. He was interested in knowing the exact business we engage in before his bouncer came.”
Detective Sam was surprised. He never thought it would be that fast. He was glad that they didn’t discuss anything about it because he was still trying to find a suitable business to use for all of them. He wanted to share the business among them to the extent of having a full information about Herbert Halloway’s activities hence, the business would cut across everything he engaged in.
Detective Sam had a lengthy sigh as the ladies gawked at him yearning for a response. He was the leader of the mission hence, his message was the most important. He broke the silence.
“We will beheading back to Mushin now to restrategise. This time, more precise and concise so the record will be set straight when he was gonna have a meeting with you ladies,” Detective Sam said and picked the car key.
As he walked out, he branched the reception and have a subtle conversation with the ladies he met there. Three of the Supernumenary police entered the car with him and the remaining two entered the second car with Sergeant Clinton. The Ford and Range Rover the ladies drove to the Oriental Hotel was left in the car park of the hotel where they lounge. They drove speedily out of the premises.
Herbert Halloway arrived at his hefty Castle in Mushin after spending almost an hour on the road. It was majorly because of the traffic he encountered en route. He was given a signal that some police had bursted his Castle and wanted to raid it when he was at the hotel. It was the police men from another division when one of his men caught with hard drug confessed that he was sent on the journey by Herbert Halloway. It came as a shock because there was a vow that had been made among all his Cabinets that no matter the situation he must not be disclosed as the sender of anyone.
Anyway, his men didn’t allow the entrant of the policemen despite the threat. The police came with the National Drug Law Enforcement agency (NDLEA) and Herbert Halloway went to meet them at the entrance and he went away with them. A large number of his entourage defied the police order and went with him in their own car. Herbert Halloway made few calls and spending a few minutes in their custody being interrogated, his political affiliation came to the rescue again and the police including NDLEA couldn’t press any charge further against him as the culprit was forced to eat his word and withdraw his former confession.
His men who disclose his name due to anxiety was released with him and as norm, he was killed in he judgement room. Herbert Halloway’s heart burnt due to the incident which gave him a tough night and making him to pass the night in the police custody.
He summoned a conference with everyone who worked for him and made enquiry about who sent the guy that was caught exactly among his cabinet.
Detective Sam was in the strategic room when the DPO entered. He had initially gone to his office and he was told that he hadn’t resumed work. He was surprised by the sudden presence of the DPO and he paused what he was discussing with the ladies.“Good Morning, sir,” the ladies saluted.Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton also extended their greeting.“I was just told that you guys resumed to the police station late last night. I thought you ought to be at Oriental Hotel.”Detective put forward his word.“Yes. But everything was shortened by the sudden vacation of Herbert Halloway. In the middle of the night when the ladies had already won his attention, one of his bouncers approached him and immediately, he walked out of the premise hence, we also have to leave since we have nothing doing.”“What! You mean he left there that night?” The DPO ask having a thought.Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton nodded gazing at him. They were already wondering what he was thinking. Suddenly, he bro
Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton booked an appointment with the police commissioner even when it appeared unnecessary. It was a lengthy hour of discussion trying to convince the police commissioner about their plan to engage in some disguised illicit act to bring Herbert Halloway completely to his kneel. At the end of the discussion, they were able to convince the police commissioner after drawing out their plans.They both left the police commissioner’s office satisfied and felt fulfilled. The commission had begun working on their demands, especially the part where more personnel were needed. He knew what they were entering and he ensured the best were recruited and sent to Mushin for proper inspection.Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton returned to Mushin and met with the DPO. They disclosed everything to him and he was happy that it went well. When he was told, he had doubts about it due to the resources it was gonna take, he doubted the police commissioner would be ready to be t
Herbert Halloway had touched down at the hotel where he was texted to meet with her. He seemed to have been bewitched that most of his guards had thought of resuscitating his psyche, they had never seen him that nervous before since they had been working for him.“How are you, Cynthia?” Herbert Halloway said.“I am fine, Chief. How about you? How have you been?” She asked.“I am fine too.”Cynthia looked around and feigned not to be comfortable with the group of his men that were around them. Although, Cynthia also came with his men. They were the newly recruited police who were incorporated into the mission and they were meant to act according to the script and feigned like they were truly one of the guards of Cynthia.When Herbert Halloway noticed that he wasn’t comfortable with the presence of his men, he invited one of his bouncers nigher and whispered into his ear. He ordered the rest to leave. They were surprised that the ferocious Herbert Halloway was being controlled by an ord
Cynthia returned home and feel fulfilled with what he went out for. She never thought she could return with such an amount of information. Her colleagues were already seated in the parlour. That would be the last major day they would be spending together. In the hotel room where they had been lounging were Jessica, Alice, Sophia and Agnes. They were filled with goosebumps when they caught sight of her. They couldn’t wait to hear what he had to say.“How was it?” Sophia asked.Sophia was the tallest among them. They were all curvy and had almost the same figure-8 shape that seemed unresistable. Cynthia ensure he was comfortable and drank the water she was given before she said anything. She brought out her phone and played all their conversation because she recorded everything as they were told by Sam and Clinton but were meant to do it cunningly.When they finished listening to it, they were surprised by the amount of information she was able to get from him and he sent the record to
Herbert Halloway touched down in Badagry the suburb of Lagos. He had never been there before. He followed the route given to him by Jessica and touched down with the few men he left Mushin with. The spy he had chosen to keep an eye on the place and Jessica also came with him and he had began to inspect every corner when Herbert Halloway entered.“Welcome, Chief,” Jessica said.“Thank you,” Herbert Halloway kept nodding his head and seemed to have been impressed by what he saw.The group of men he saw while entering shows the establishment which was being ran by Jessica but hadn’t known what she was really into. She thought she was also into drug because Cynthia chose to keep it away from him.Jessica noticed the way she was looking around with smile. She thought of leading the way to the reception where they could seat and talk better.“I guess you love what you are seeing,” Jessica said.“Of course. By the way, what do you do here. As in, what’s it meant for? What are you into becaus
“Yes. I thought you’ve asked the other time. Do you doubt it?” Jessica asked.“Not really. I am just amazed by the wealth,” Herbert said.They ate and had a lengthy minute of discussion before Herbert Halloway saw the need to take his leave. He wouldn’t want to elapse his time there with her because he had few things to sort out before the end o the day. In his psyche, he had come to conclusion to strike a deal with them to enhance her trafficking activities.“Jessica. I want to be on my way.”“Wow. So fast?”Herbert nodded trying to adjust the collar of his polo, “I will get back to you and before I do that, I will visit other ladies and perhaps, set up a meeting with you all and have a discussion. You will recollect that our last discussion wasn’t concluded. I am sorry for that, it will be corrected soon.”Herbert led the way to the exit and joined his guards who had been waiting around for him. Before he finally took his leave, he ensured, a good apartment was gotten for his men wh
After an hour and a few minutes of drive, Herbert Halloway and his entourage touched down on the Island. He initially paid a visit to Alice on the Victoria Island as he promise and he put the visit to Sophia after. Alice never knew that he would be coming that early. He was going through the surrounding when she learnt of his presence.Alice walked to the entrance of his establishment to welcome him.“Hey, Chief Herbert. So early. Welcome.”Herbert was walking in with his head tucked to the ground while climbing the short stairs at the entrance. When he heard her, he lifted his head with a big smile.“Alice. How are you? You weren’t interested in meeting me. I know.”“Oh. Not that. I am seriously busy. I never intended to entertain guest for the week until next week. But I think you really wanted to see me so I have to give in. Anyway, I am fine. How about you?”“I am good too. Can we go into the office?”Alice nodded and led the way in. They walked into the guest room and Herbert Hal
“I am good,” Herbert Halloway retorted and smiled.Jamy was at the entrance seeking to speak with him. One of Sophia’s lady came to inform him and he knew that it must be something important. He told them to grant him access and he entered whispering into his ear. Jamy wasn’t aware that Herbert Halloway’s initial meeting with Mr Pius had been agreed on the following day, that was what brought him in when he remember he jotted it down.“Oh, that? I have postpone it. We will be meeting tomorrow,” Herbert Halloway said.Jamy nodded and walked to the exit. Sophia took an intense look at him as he walked to the exit.“That guy is always with you. I could remember when we were at the hotel. He was the one who came to speak with us,” Sophia said.“Yes. That’s my most important guard. His name is Jamy. He is more or less like my personal assistant and he is the one I loved most. He is an incredible guy,” he said.Sophia nodded with a fake smile. She was wondering who was the meeting he would
Detective Sam entered with the escorts that he was given. The commissioner was in the office when he heard the serene being blown. He was curious and he paced out. Reaching outside, there was also ambulances entering the compound behind the first two escorts. He stood at the corridor as they drove to the car park.Detective Sam led other police officer he went to Yaba with to where the police commissioner stood. They saluted.“We met some corpse in the building when we arrived there. Among the corpse is that of the resigned Supernumerary CynthIa,” Detective Sam said.The commissioner’s face changed. He was awed by the statement. He walked to the ambulance. He began to look at all the corpse.“Who are those males?”“I think that small boy is Cynthia’s brother according to Herbert Halloway’s men. They only killed the female and kidnapped the male. So I think her presence was requested before they can release him unfortunately, they killed both of them.”“How about the other two?”“I kno
When Detective Sam would wake up in the morning. He saw a number of missed calls from the police spy he privately kept on Cynthia. He was surprised and prompted to stand up from the bed. He phoned him back and he was told to come out. He changed from the lingerie she slept with. His wife wasn’t on the bed, perhaps, she might have gone to get what they would be eating for breakfast.Detective Sam walked to one of the police officers guarding their room.“Where is my wife?” He asked.“He went to use the toilet.”Detective nodded and walked back in. He initially wanted to change his dress but not finding his wife prompted him to walked to the police officer guarding his room. He changed his cloth and went to the room where his private police spy told him to come.“What’s wrong? I slept off completely last night as a result of the stress I have been subjected to for the past couple of days,” Detective Sam said.“It is the recently resigned Supernumerary Cynthia that you told me to keep an
That night, Cynthia was tied to another chair beside her junior brother. She was surprised. Jamy had also disarmed Shane and Timothy. She left them all until the morning and he woke them all. When Shane and Timothy woke up, they were surprised to see themselves in handcuff. The face of the day was clearer and he also untied the cloth he tied on Cynthia’s mouth.“What’s going on?” Shane asked tweaking his head around.Shane was already struggling to remove the handcuff while Timothy was already left emotional and didn’t know what Jamy was up to. The gun he saw in his hand wasn’t a typical gun. He knew that Jamy was up to something.“Jamy!!! Why do you put me in an handcuff?” Shane asked.“Jamy, please. Release me. What do I do?” Timothy pleaded.Cynthia was there gazing at his brother who was already losing consciousness. Cynthia began to cry. She knew she was helpless. She didn’t inform anyone before coming because she knew how despicable Herbert Halloway’s men could be. He did everyt
Early in the morning, Jamy woke up to brush his teeth and wander the environment. He knew he would be leaving soon. His mission in the compound was about to be completed. While walking back in, his phone chimed. He thought it was a message from the customer care as usual, he didn’t have the intention to check the message. While walking past the phone, he saw the title of the message. It didn’t seem to be a message from the customer care.When he grabbed the phone, that was when Shane and Timothy drove into the compound. They had woke up earlier and went to the nearest joint to get their breakfast. It seemed they weren’t interested in the cooking anymore perhaps, the time it consumed and lack of cooking skill.Jamy was reading the message she received referencing to his WhatsApp. It was from an unknown number. He went to the WhatsApp and saw some images sent. He flipped through it and read everything. Timothy and Shane entered saw him glued his on the screen of the phone.“Can you beli
Detective Sam chose to break the protocol and employed the preferential means to have the attention of the police commissioner. When the police commissioner entered the guest room where they were directed to. He was awed seeing the faces of some of the officer. Especially on the face of Agnes, the sign of tears were still lying on her cheek despite Alice effort to clean it.“What’s wrong? Why do you all look moody?” The police commissioner asked.Detective Sam was expecting one of them to talk because he believed his face didn’t seem like one. None of them talked, they were also expecting Detective Sam to talk because he was always the one who did have initial conversation with the commissioner in any of their visits being the leader of the team.“Herbert Halloway’s men did as they said on the phone the last time Cynthia’s phone rang when we were here,” Detective Sam said.The police commissioner tried to remember until his psyche went to the threats that made him sent his family back
Detectice Sam and Sergeant Clinton were seated in the strategic room. Detective Sam told one of the police officers to go and invite the supernumerary police to the strategic room. Detective Sam knew that they would have already been demoralised by the event that they might even compromise resigning.Jessica and Alice held each of Cynthia and Agnes. Cynthia was the most devastated. Her two brothers were leaving with their parents before their death three years ago in a ghastly accident that took their lives. It was the saddest day of Cynthia lives that she went on two month vacation from work to heal from the trauma she suffered as a result of their death.Since the death of their parents, Cynthia had vowed to ensure that he protected both of his siblings and have them the best and she never let them down. She ensured they were admitted into the course of their choice in the prestigious university of first choice, the University of Lagos. Hearing the death of Regina happened to bring
Early in the morning they had reported to work. Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton retuned to work together. They had been communicating with police commissioner and some other team member would join them in couple of days to intensify their communication with the police across the country and also the immigration offices at the border of the country.They were in the office when Supernumerary Agnes walked in depressed and sobbed. Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton was having a clandestine conversation when she entered. They were having a discussion concerning a spy they thought were among them because Sam had been struggling to know how Herbert Halloway learnt of the whole thing.“What’s wrong Supernumerary Agnes?” Sergeant Clinton asked.“They have killed my parents,” she said.“They killed your parents? Who?”“Herbert Halloway men. I am certain of that. They have killed my parents.”Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton were quiet and gazing at each other. A few minutes later, they we
When the undergraduate where entering Timothy caught sight of the lady and have the signal to them. They saw her and marked her face. They waited until a few minutes 5 PM when the class ended. They tracked her and invited her out of the crowd of students.“Hello, how may I help you?” Regina asked.“Well. We are making some research and we contacted your aunt, Supernumerary Cynthia who directed us to you. We’ve been trying to reach her when we arrived in the school premises to get across to you but it seems she had been busy so we find out way here,” Shane brought out the faked approval papers from the police commissioner.Regina was a fair lady and kinda tall. He had an uncanny resemblance with her aunt, Cynthia but she was the opposite in terms of shape. He was thin and had a flexible body with a simple face that seemed very soothing from distance. Her book was on her left hand and she bade her friends who ran out of time waiting for her.She was already convince with the fact that t
Late in the night, Jamy, Timothy and Shane left home at the dark hour and drove to one of the address they got from Sophia’s home. Jamy was really curious and wanted to reach the Cynthia’s address because it seemed very familiar. When they reached the house, Jamy came down from the car and they looked at the house.“I thought as much. This was the street, I do pass. I grew up on this street in Ikeja where I school and the transportation minister also has one of his house on this street,” Jamy said.“So what are we going to do now?” Shane asked.“We make enquiry about that lady, Supernumerary Cynthia.”Jamy walked forward tweaking his head around. He saw a young lady that walk out of the gate.“Hello!” He said.The lady stopped and tweaked her head behind. Jamy walked towards her.“Good Evening, sir,” the lady greeted.Jamy nodded, “I want to make enquiry about someone.”“Go ahead.”“Do you know a police officer that lives in this compound?”The lady nodded, “yes, I do. Miss Cynthia.”
