Criminal Hearts

Chapter 45

Next day in the office, 

Krish and Radhika shared all their findings with their team and chief. Everyone was surprised to learn they had only one day to prepare. Following Krish and Radhika's instructions, the entire team worked throughout the day. 

By 7 in the evening, they gathered in the meeting hall to discuss final details.

Krish: 'So...sab ho gaya hai...?'

All: 'Yess...'

Radhika: 'Bas...sirf aaj raat ki baat hai...kal hum kisi bhi haal mein...us dean ko kamyaab nahi hone denge...'

Krish: 'Dekho...mujhe lagta hai ki ab hum sabko ghar jaana chaiye...kyuki sab taiyaariyan ho chuki hain...bas you all have a good sleep, kyuki kal bada hectic day hone wala hai...'

All agree, and were about to disperse, but Radhika stopped them.

Radhika: 'Umm...sabhi saath mein mat niklo...thode intervals ke baad akele...like casually niklo bahar...and pretend as if you''re extremely busy in your work...'

Krish: 'Kyu, but...?'

Radhika: 'Kyuki...ho sakta hai ki bahar us dean ke log humpe nazar rakhne ke liye chupe hue ho...aur agar unko humpe koi bhi shaq hua, toh humara plan bigad sakta hai...'

Krish: 'Theek hai guyss... Radhika is right...'

Soon, all left one by one...

Krish and Radhika were back home. They didn't share anything about their day to avoid causing tension at home. They spent time with everyone as usual, and after dinner, they went to their room. Radhika seemed a bit tense, though she didn't show it openly. Krish noticed and tried to ease her worries.

Krish: 'Kya hua Radha...?'

Radhika: 'Dekho...mujhe waise toh humare plan pe poora confidence hai, par...'

Krish: 'Par...?'

Radhika: 'But...I am tensed...ki sab kuch theek hoga na...'

Krish: 'Bilkul theek hoga...tum zara bhi tension mat lo...dekhna...kaise band bajata hai hum sab us dean ki...' (He said, keeping his hands on her shoulder)

The next day, with complete plan, the whole team and other officers were ready to proceed with their plan.

As per the details, there were 13 different places where the dean's men had planned to plant the bombs for the serial blasts.

Krish: 'Guyss...is everything done...sabke bluetooth and trackers perfectly kaam kar rahe hai...?'

All: 'Yup...'

Krish: 'Great...let's do it...dikha dete hai us dean ko ki burai ke badal ab chahein kitne ghane kyu na ho...lekin jab acchai ka suraj chamakta haina..toh unhein hatna hi padta hai...'

Dean: 'Mere sheron...aaj tum woh karne jaa rahe ho jo bahut kismat walon ko karne ka mauka milta hai...bas yeh samajh lo...apni jaan dekar bohot bada kaam kar rahe ho...dikha do un CBI walo ki koi unke naak ke neeche baith kar humne kya kar dikhaya hai...unhe plan banane ka mauka nahi dia is baar...wahi baithe honge...aaram se...khabar tak nahi hone diya unko ki kya hone wala hai...'

He laughed, and other men joined him.

Radhika: 'Bhagwan ka saath raha toh bas sab plan ke according ho hoga aur us dean ke sapno par paani firega...'

Krish: 'Let's go guys...1:13 p.m. ka time hai aur locations alag alag hai..toh hume ab nikalna chahiye...sab log alert rahenge...we have to shoot them at the exact same time...'

All the group members shared a group hug and left for their assigned location.

Before going, Krish went to Radhika. he didn't say anything, but just shared a brief eye lock with her...

Both together: 'Aaj hum yeh karke rahenge...by hook or by crook...'

Both parted ways...

(Note: All the members will now communicate via Bluetooth)

Krish: 'Sab pahunch gaye...?'

All: 'Haan...'

Radhika: 'I'm just about to...'

Krish: 'Theek hai...'

Soon, Radhika too reached her assigned location.

Krish: 'So ab humara sabse pehla kaam yeh hai ki hume un logon ko dhundna hai jo bombs plant karne wale hai...as you guys already know about their appearance so start searching...'

All of them started searching for those persons, staying alert.

First, Avinash found the person and then Rhea.

Avinash and Rhea: 'Mujhe mila hai aisa ek insaan...'

Krish: 'Good... dhyaan se uska peecha karte raho aur uski activities pe nazar rakho...'

After sometime Krish himself also found a person in black clothes, with bag in his hand.

Krish: 'Guys...I think mujhe bhi mil chukka hai....please. . . sab dhyan se dekhte raho apne aas paas . . .'

Soon, one by one everyone found the persons.

Radhika: 'Abhi hum sabko aadmi mil chuke hai...we hust need to wait till 1...uske baad we will shoot the at sharp 1...'

All: 'Theek hai...'

Krish: 'Kya kya rahe hai tumhare samne wale aadmi...?'

Radhika: 'Kuch nahi...bas silently khada hai and bar bar bag ko dekh raha hai...'

Others: 'Same...'

Krish: 'Koi baat nahi...bas thodi der aur...'

Everyone anxiously waited for the clock to strike 1, observing them closely. There were almost 2 minutes left.

Krish: 'Theek hai...Everyone get your guns ready...we'll shoot them in the count of 3 aur haa... remember... seedha sar main goli maarni hai... koi chance nahi dena hai...'

All: 'Yeah...'

Everyone was ready, and were waiting for Krish's command.

Krish: 'Let's finish it guys... I'm starting...3...(all took out the guns)...2...(unlocked it)...1... shoot...'

All the individuals were shot dead instantly. The sound of gunshots created panic among the people, but the officers quickly made an announcement to stay calm and assured them that there was no cause for concern. After completing their tasks, the officers sent the bodies for forensic examination.

Krish: 'We did it guys...'

Radhika: 'Congrats guyss...'

All: 'Same to you...!!'

Krish: 'Chalo...let us all meet at bureau and celebrate our victory...'

Radhika: 'Yess...eager to meet all of you...'

All were on their way back to the CBI Bureau, including Krish who was lost in his thoughts while driving and there was serene smile on his face.

Krish: (In mind) 'Kaam toh pura hogya...bas ab aaj hi mein tumhe apni feelings confess karunga Radha....I can't wait anymore....'

Here, Radhika was also planning something similar to Krish.

Radhika: (In mind) 'I am coming Krish...aaj chahein jo ho jaaye...tumhe confess zaroor karungi chahein tumhara jawaab jo marzi ho..I can't wait anymore...'

Krish was driving peacefully, listening to soft music when suddenly his phone rang. He ignored it initially since it was an unknown number. However, the same number called again after a few seconds. This time, Krish decided to pick up the call, parking his car on the roadside.

Krish: 'Hello...'
