Prologue:
Five persons are shown in a dark office, they all were sitting around a table, and in front of each person, there were coffee mugs placed except for one particular person whose table space was occupied by a glass of tea and a glass of water as well. A voice boomed through the silent atmosphere, attracting everyone's attention.
"Team, we have been assigned a case in Dubai and we must leave tomorrow itself," said Sameer Rathod, the chief of ETF.
"Woww...Dubai!" said a feminine voice and there was some excitement in her tone.
"Till now, I have only seen this country in movies, and it will be a dream come true." Said Chotu and he was ecstatic as well along with Ria and Shree. They all started pouring out their fantasies about travelling but the other person who was not introduced yet got up and said in a high tone," Stop it! I will not tolerate this unprofessional behavior at all, irrespective of wherever we go, either Dubai or Chennai, remember this clearly, we are only performing our duty and if this childish attitude continues, then drop out of ETF and go and fulfill your wishes of touring around the world."
Shree, Ria and Chotu gulped as Arjun Rawte raised his tone, they were all afraid of him except Sameer Rathod. Ria found herself staring at Arjun, she had some feelings for him but the cold-hearted man would not even speak to her nicely, if it happened then she considered that as a miracle. She stopped her chain of thoughts when Arjun eyed all of them and then he walked to Rathod and said," If you cannot control your team, then ..."
But Arjun was interrupted by Rathod who clenched his fist and said through gritted teeth," You don't need to tell me how I need to do my work, I can very well, manage my team,"...Rathod paused and then added with a smirk "...and if you cannot control your anger, then just go and do some yoga or go and meditate on the Himalayas, maybe you will be calmer then."
Some chuckles were heard but they were soon stopped as Arjun threw angry glances at Ria, Shree and Chotu. To relieve the atmosphere, Ria mustered the courage and asked," Rathod Sir, What is the case about? And why are we required to go to Dubai? I mean, can't the officers over there handle the situation?"
Arjun walked back to his place as Rathod started talking," Ria, the case is linked to the fashion world, a famous modeling company in India itself have experienced a series of murder that have occurred and all of this took place on Friday the 13th, every time, when this day arrives, a corpse is found. we need to find out about the murderer but in order to do that, we need to stick with the modeling agency but since, they are going to Dubai for a ramp show, we need to go there to, to keep an eye on any suspicious activity and to nab the criminal. And since tomorrow is the 13th and it is a Friday as well, then we will need to move."
Arjun took a sip of tea and then water and he said," Well Rathod, what makes you think that the murderer will attack again tomorrow?"
"Rawte, he has been doing so for 3 months and I don't think that he will stop his routine," Rathod replied.
Chotu said while stammering," Rathod sir, what if it's.. associated with ghosts, sp..pirits and black magic,"
Shree and Ria tried to hide their laughter while Rathod threw a look at Chotu that made him forget his talking ability and he kept mum.
"But sir, if the owners know about the cause of murder then why are they proceeding with a fashion show?" Shree asked,
"They do not want to make a loss, the show is a very important one and they even refused security as they wanted privacy but after negotiation, we have been assigned the case."
Rathod paced throughout the room all while giving orders," Shree, I need you to get all the detailed information on the modeling company and I want to know everything about the models, their personal information, financial details, call history and everything... Ria, make a booking at the hotel in which they will be staying and Chotu, try to get any latest information from your informers.."
Before the team dispersed, Rathod stopped them," Remember, we will have only a day to solve the case, only 24 hours."
