EPISODE 37A
read out the name from the computer. ‘ She’s a
student of Lagos state Polytechnic’
‘A student?’ James echoed.
‘A student…’ The computer operator paused
and read some words under his breath. ‘ the
data here does not show her graduating date,
she’s been a student since 2023’
‘That’s over seven years already’
‘Yes it is’
‘ Find her location, that’s what we need now.
Inspector Robin might be in great danger’ the
embattled Greg put in. ‘The location is more
important than who she is ‘
‘The search for the location is on already, we
should get it before the next five minutes’ the
operator replied, taking a quick glance at Greg.
An awkward silence took over as the three
stared into the computer. The software
revealed the location in lesser time than the
operator speculated. James quickly scribbled it
on a sheet of paper.
‘Can we access the security cameras there?
Let’s see what’s happening around’ James
enquired.
‘Sir…’ The operator began as he rolled the
swivel to another computer set. ‘The cameras
have not been transmitting for about two hours
now, I think somebody is playing with our
systems again’
‘Wasn’t that the same thing that happened
during the health minister’s assassination?’
James asked, raising a brow.
‘Yes, it…’
‘We gotta go now’ James said to Greg. He
tightened his fist as he turned once more to
the operator. ‘Please inform us immediately
there’s any change in location’ he said to the
operator before hurrying out of the room with
Greg.
After watching them do the task on their own
for more than an hour, Tarasha decided that it
was time to step in. Things were already
getting out of their control, they had used a
wrong dose of the sedative on Robin and that
couldn’t keep Robin as long as they needed.
That wasn’t even her main concern, there was
very little that Robin could do. Her main
concern was their location that had been gotten
by the police server, she had a monitor over the
operating devices of Cole, Benny and Aisha’s
phones, so she knew when something was up
with their devices.
She started the car engine and wind up the
windows. She began loading her guns, sticking
them one after the other into her kevlar made
costume. She stuck two revolvers at the side of
her boots, two in the square pockets of her
tight trousers and one in her top.
Aisha let out a scream as she staggered
backwards in pain and hit her head against the
left wall side of the ambulance. Robin had
rolled off the stretcher to escape a quick shot
from Cole. He pushed out a small first aid box
with his right leg which hit Benny on the knee.
Luckily for Robin, he still had a revolver in the
inner pocket of his jacket. He released two
shots out towards Cole and Benny who quickly
dodged and hid from his eyesight.
Robin could not do much with his injured leg, he
only had the other leg to stand on and he
wasn’t sure he would be able to take out the
two guys. But even if he had to die, he wouldn’t
give up without a fight.
He dragged himself up on the right leg and
pointed a gun at Aisha who was just recovering
from the impact of the blow. He hopped closer
and placed the gun on her head motioning her
to lift up her hands.
Benny appeared at the entrance again, pointing
a gun at Robin. The man gave a smirk and spat
out through the entrance not minding that
Benny was there. The look on his eyes was that
of a dying man who was ready to take several
others with him.
‘Do I look like someone who cares if you shoor
her?’ Aisha’s body trembled in disappointment
as Benny spoke.
‘Oh well! I don’t want to know if you care but
I’m killing all of you and not just her alone’
Robin replied as he cocked the gun.
Benny felt afraid as he heard the gun c--k, he
was alone trying to sound confident to Robin
not that he didn’t care if Aisha was shot. He
braced up and still continued, ‘you won’t kill
anyone here’
Robin smiled, he knew he had got Benny, he
was a professional so he recognized the look in
Benny’s eyes, ‘I'll... ' Aisha tried to move as Robin began but he pulled her back to himself sending in a bullet to her left foot.
Benny tried to use the opportunity to send a bullet into Robins body but Robin was fast as he swerved quickly to the other side before the gun was shot and released a quick bullet which pierced through Benny's arm. Benny winced in pain as he hid away from the entrance.
'D__n' James cursed as the driver of his car blared the car horn. A red Range Rover was blocking the road just a few metres from their destination.
The car had made a careless U-turn and almost caused an accident, they expected that it would drive off as soon as it turns but the driver halted in the middle of the road, obstructing cars from passing on the lanes. What had saved her from the wrath of the police was a 'L' tag behind the car.
'How can someone park a car on the road like that?' Greg barked angrily.
