Chapter 92It was all over now.Justice was finally served. Everything was now okay. The ministers were all dead now, and everything was now settled. They had finally paid for their crimes.As they all walked back, returning to their homes, they could hear the vehicle explode behind them.That was the end of it. The end of corruption. Greediness. End of bad ministers and leaders.No one talked about their existence anymore. After justice was served, the citizens went back to their houses. Everyone was at peace. They went home happily knowing that justice was served for all the souls that were lost."Welcome to Radio Station of Castle City 2. This is to let the citizens of Castle City know that peace has been restored to the city. The government assures you that there will no form of corruption or bad leaders that would cause the citizens pain or harm. All facilities and infrastructures have been put to budget by the government, and would be taken care of, as soon as possible. "Also,
"Arjun…the man of the city." The president praised Arjun as he walked into the room.A smile found its way to Arjun's lips, "Mr President, we both know that's you and not me." After the incident, Arjun became friends with the president. One would find it hard to believe that he was a citizen like other people because of how close he was with the president.The president rose up to have a handshake with Arjun, "You can deny many times but it doesn't change the truth my friend." Arjun shook hands firmly with the president before taking his seat, "Exactly. The truth about you being the man of the city. As it should be." The president shook his head as he smiled, "In the eyes of the law, I am the man of the city. But in the eyes of the citizens, you're the man of the city. Have you seen how they adore you? If you even contested for the seat of presidency right now, you'll be given without making too much efforts on campaigns." Arjun sighed, "Well, it is what it is. I just had to play
"That's because not everywhere in the city has reliable electricity. Recently, I received pleas from a remote state asking me to set up a power plant there, so they wouldn't have to rely on generators, given the increasing cost of fuel." The president explained.Arjun hummed, "Oh…well how much do you have in budget for that?" "About fifty million dollars. And we need a hundred and fifty million dollars." "But why are you short of funds?" Arjun inquired.The president took another sip of his wine, "There are other things we have to take care of in the city to ensure the citizens live comfortably. Most of the money is being channeled to our imports." Arjun rubbed his chin as he relaxed on the couch, "I think I know how to help." "I'm all ears." Arjun drummed his fingers on the couch, "Firstly, what are those things we import?" "Mostly gadgets and machines," the president replied."Hmm. Why don't we just pay one of those engineers from the country we import from to come here and tr
CHAPTER 95 Arjun's eyes widened in surprise as he stared at the TV with utmost attention.He almost couldn't believe his eyes."He looks just like me. The exact replica. How is this possible? Who is he?" Arjun wondered as he stared at the TV.Arjun didn't realize this man who happened to be his lookalike was being talked about on the news until the news theme started playing.Arjun's mind swirled in thoughts as he wondered why this man was on the news."Breaking news, a shocking revelation has rocked the city. A local man, whose image we aired just moments ago, has been unmasked as a notorious criminal masquerading as a respectable citizen. After a thorough investigation, authorities have finally apprehended the suspect, exposing his sinister activities. We will continue to follow this developing story and provide updates as more information becomes available." Whatever the newscaster just said only added to Arjun's curiosity.What crime could his lookalike have committed?And why w
"Good afternoon, and welcome back to Castle News! We have a significant update for you this morning, regarding the individual we featured in our last report. After a thorough investigation, we can now confirm that the man in question, whose name is Abhi, has been accused of a serious crime, and a guilty verdict has been handed down.Our investigative team has uncovered evidence revealing his true nature as a con artist, who attempted to defraud a local company, The Reddys. Fortunately, his scheme was uncovered, and justice has been served. We'll have more details on this developing story as it becomes available. Stay tuned!"Arjun was flummoxed by the news.His lookalike, a con artist?It sounded like a lie despite the fact that Arjun didn't know this guy.How did he try to defraud the Reddys? Arjun wondered and then it dawned on him.The Reddys…He knew those people in the business world. They were basically known for their shrewdness, corrupt system of management and their scandalou
Arjun lifted a brow, "What is it?" "Well…sir…these are pictures of you. Is there a mistake?" Akshay asked with a confused expression.Arjun smirked, "I was surprised too. I forgot to add that Abhi is my lookalike. I thought you knew about this case already so why are you so surprised?" Akshay put his phone in his pocket, "Yes sir. I was aware of the case but as I said before, I couldn't take up investigation since my senior was already doing that. So I didn't even know what Abhi looked like…until now." "Oh. I understand." Arjun replied.Akshay adjusted his belt as he spoke, "Alright sir. I'll get going now, there's a lot of work for me to do. I'll give a call very soon to update or possibly meet you when I've gathered full information." Arjun nodded and stretched his hand towards Akshay for a handshake, "Thank you so much Akshay." Akshay shook hands with him in excitement, "You're most welcome sir."******************Arjun walked into the meeting room, the board members were al
Arjun was surprised but he expected to hear this."I just knew he was innocent. Now tell me the rest." Arjun's held the phone tighter as his curiosity grew."It turns out that Mr Karan isn't the man behind ADA, it's actually Abhi. Abhi is the genius behind the Reddys smart house and it seems Mr Karan is trying to take over the Ai system fully, because he wants all the money to himself. Your story about the Reddys were correct sir. With that information, I was able to find out this." Akshay explained.Arjun frowned slightly, " But why is Abhi not trying to clear his name or defend himself? He's being defamed here. Why isn't he speaking?""I have no idea why he's silent as I haven't moved further in my research. Currently, I only know that the creator of ADA isn't Mr Karan but Abhi and he's trying to snatch his invention from him by all means. I'll call you when I've gotten more updates on the case." Rahul clarified. "Alright then. Thank you." Arjun sighed before ending the call.As
Arjun looked confused, "Abhi's background? I don't understand." "Yes sir. It's related to Abhi's background. You see Abhi was raised by Mr Karan right from when he was a child. While growing up, he used to accompany Mr Karan to his company and that's how he was able to create ADA." "Wow." Arjun exclaimed."I was equally surprised sir. Before now, Abhi was the one in charge of ADA, both partnership wise and profit wise. But right now, Mr Karan wants to take over ADA, and that's why that accusation is circulating on the news about him being a con artist and all." Akshay explained further.Arjun turned his gaze away from Akshay, his eyes almost looked teary. "Poor Abhi. This is so unfair." Arjun said in a soft tone. Arjun tilted his head slightly to Akshay, "Is there anything you can do to help him?" Akshay lowered his head slowly, "I'm sorry sir but there's nothing I can do. It's with great risk that I'm gathering these information, if my senior were to find out about what I'm doin
