A week after finalising the deal with Herbert Halloway, he had met with them at the Oriental Hotel over the weekend when he went for his night party and the process of transaction was concluded. It was a beautiful moment for Herbert Halloway because everything he was looking at was the profit he would be raking from the recently concluded blockbuster deal he successfully had with them. They had also agreed to exchange men who would be serving each other’s interest in their respective establishment.It was a moment Cynthia had really prepared for since they now super police men who would comfortably penetrated his empire without having any eyes on them. She had planned how she would use the one that will be sent him and placed them in strategic position where they wouldn’t feel anything. After the night party, Cynthia and her colleagues were to also meet Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton in the hotel where they were lounging in Mushin.Since the deal had been stricken with the ladies.
“What’s it?” Sergeant Clinton asked.Detective Sam was still twirling his eyes around while Clinton was yearning for a response.“I saw a guy a few minutes ago looking at our direction, then checking again, I could not find him again. I think he was one of Herbert Halloway’s men studying from his appearance although the doesn’t look like one because he dressed responsibly but I think he is. He disguised.”“So what do you think is going on?” Sergeant Clinton asked.“It is fine. They don’t know who we are. And I am sure I catch him before he does anything.”They both walked back to the seat to meet the ladies. Detective Sam kept tweaking his head behind looking at the entrance into the pool. He would have gone to the car park but he thought he would have abscond. Shane parked his car outside and walked in while tracing Cynthia from when he left Yaba. He drove speedily back to Yaba. It was an hour trip due to the traffic that hit him on the road. He was kinda frustrated because he couldn
The solicitor was still left in disbelief. He adjusted the laptop very well and went through all the photos on the laptop. He kept jiggling his head. They went ahead to have every discussion. In the midst of their discussion, Shane drove into the hotel. He had planned to come and lounge there so he could get to know more about the two guys he saw when he traced Cynthia to the hotel. A few minutes after entering, he was still seated in his car looking at them from distance. Detective Sam and Sergeant Clinton were so immersed in their conversation with Solicitor Olumide that they didn’t notice the entrance of any car.They spent almost an hour talking before Solicitor Olumide was escorted to his car. He would be resuming work with them fully the subsequent time he would be visiting. What he came for was the briefing as he was told my the police commissioner. Shane was seated in the looking at them as they accompanied Solicitor Olumide to the car. He tried to capture them from the distan
“Oh, little wonder. I was thinking that I have seen them before but I wasn’t certain since the photo wasn’t clear. They’ve came to the Castle to arrest Herbert Halloway before. Fuck. So you saw the ladies with them at the hotel yesterday,” Jamy said.Shane was lost for word as he kept glancing at the picture on.“So they are policemen?” Shane asked rhetorically. “I think we are lucky this came out early, you’ve got to meet Herbert Halloway and every operation with them have to be stopped.”“Yes. But how are we gonna do that. You know how stubborn Herbert Halloway is. I hope I can be able to convince him.”“You will. Thinking of the relationship between you both. Where is my phone?” Jamy.“What do you want to do?”“I want to phone Timothy. We have to make enquiry about Herbert Hallway’s movement.”“Alright.”Shane sat down with diverse thought trotting through her psyche. If not for Jamy he wouldn’t have been that convinced when Herbert Halloway informed him of the relationship he wa
When it was dark Detective Sam drove Sergeant Clinton and Solitor Olumide into the main establishment in Yaba. It was a moment Shane would have gotten the best confirmation from but he had been downed by the news of Herbert Halloway being out country and every transaction had been successfully going on without knowing that he was being set up.Cynthia and the ladies had been at the guest room having fun all days and dancing to the music of their choice that they didn’t know when Detective Sam and her two colleagues entered. They traced down the loud music to the guest room and they were kinda disappointed in the mood they saw them, they seemed carried away.Detective Sam had to put off the music before they learnt of his presence.“What’s all this?” Detective Sam said.Sergeant Clinton went to put on the light because everywhere was dark leaving the coloured light only on.“So sorry, sir,” they chorused and began to comport themselves and their dresses.Detective Sam went to the seat
Shane was seated in the room when Jamy was outside the room having a discussion with his recruited men. Shane had been relegated to diverse thought yearning for the return of Herbert Halloway. He laid on the bed when Jamy entered when he finished talking to his men. They seemed not to be having much of training to do recently and would soon swoop into action to protect Herbert Halloway once everything was set.“Have you phone Timothy today?”“No. I haven’t. Let me try it.”Timothy ought not to stay back in Nigeria while Herbert Hallway went to the United States if not for the absence of Shane who would have swapped with him. Due to the inexperience of his guards concerning the running of the firm, Timothy was the best in place who could guarantee the maximum he wanted.“Hey, Timo. Good morning. How was the night?” Jamy asked.“It went well, friend. How about yours?”“It went well. Is there any information concerning Herbert Halloway’s return?”“Nothing yet. Please, where are you so we
The guy noticed some glitches in the list and he kept his eyes on it. Detective Sam thought he had seen what he was looking for. The guy invited one of the ladies.“Please, can I have the list of the available rooms.”The lady brought out all the room tags and they were noting it. They noticed that someone left without signing out.“Who is this that left without signing out?” The guy.“Oh. Yesterday morning, a man who seemed to be fair in his singlets ran to the car park with trousers held on his hands and some stuff. I don’t know what was wrong?”The guy looked at Detective Sam who was already calculating in his psyche.“You mean he ran out? When was that? Morning, afternoon or night?”“It was in the morning.”“Which name did he put down?” Detective Sam asked.The guy adjuster the book opposite him on the stand and pointed at the name with his pen. Detective Sam noted the name with his eyes nodding. He thanked the receptionists and walked out to meet her colleagues he left beside the
Sophia early in the morning hadn’t gotten a response from Cynthia concerning her resumption. The first day of her day off was spent lonely at the beach to pass time. It had been a while she had such time off from work. She had planned to spent the subsequent days with her old mother.“Good Morning, Cynthia. How was the night?” Sophia asked.“Huh! Sophia, it was great. How about yours?”“It went well. How about our resumption? Any news?”“No news yet. According to me chat with Herbert Halloway, no transactions will be taking place in the next three days because he was still trying to distribute the ones we’ve crossed.”Sophia punched her hands in the air. Her old mother had been on her neck for a long period of time lamenting of being abandoned despite the huge sum Sophia did send at the end of every month. Her monthly allowance since she began working with Detective Sam had skyrocketed which she never left her mother out.After the conversation with Cynthia on the phone, he began to a
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.”
