Part 17
Khushi struggled in Arnav's arms "Let me go" she commanded.He didn't say anything and firmly pressed her against the wall.Khushi glared at him.
"Are you happy?" Arnav whispered harshly "Happy I am in jail...happy that if I even manage to escape,the cops can find me because they know what I look like because you gave them every piece of information you knew,including my looks"
"You possibly couldn't have thought I would have remained quiet" hissed Khushi "And yes..I am happy,very happy indeed"
Arnav remained expressionless.He finally let her go and smirked at her "Trying to take revenge from me for breaking your heart three years ago"
Khushi widened her eyes at him.She pointed her finger at him "I am an inspector Panther..it's my job to put criminals like you behind the bars"
"Oh so what would you do if you weren't?"
"I would file a case against you for kidnapping" Khushi snapped.
"Oh my lioness" chuckled Arnav "You still keep that wild side with you"
"I am calling the police department right now" exclained Khushi.She reached for the phone but Arnav grabbed her wrist,stopping her.Twisting her wrist,Khushi leaned backwards and grabbed the gun on the table.She pointed it at Arnav's head "Let.Me.Go" she commanded.Glancing at the gun,Arnav let go.He obviously wasn't expecting the gun.His expression was serious "Raise your hands" Following her instructions,he put his hands up.Khushi quickly picked up the phone but suddenly it was pushed out of her hands.It fell to the floor,unharmed.Khushi glared at Arnav "How dare-"
"At least act like your gun is full" interrupted Arnav "It's obvious it's empty"
Khushi gasped.It was true.She thought he wouldn't notice.Suddenly they heard a click "Dad" whispered Khushi.
"Damn" cursed Arnav.
Before Khushi could say or do anything,Arnav jumped out of the open window "Khushi" called out her dad.
Khushi ran to the living room,where he was "Dad I have to go back to the police station"
"What but why" he questioned.
"I'll be right back" yelled Khushi at the doorway,quickly putting on her jacket.She was still in her white salwar.Khushi jumped into the car "Driver,quickly drive to the police station"
**************************************************
Khushi arrived at the police station.The police officers watched as she hurried to the cells.She ran to cell number 9 as that was Panther was supposed to be.Holding the bars tightly in her grip,she glanced around and gasped.There he was.Panther.Lying on the bed casually,staring at the ceiling while tapping the side of the bed.He ran a hand through his hair and gave a long sigh.He smiled.He turned to Khushi and widened his smile "I see you couldn't stay away from me for too long" Arnav stood up and made his way towards Khushi.Only the bars separated them.Coming close enough he whispered enough only for her to hear "I only left a few minutes ago..want to join me in the cell?"
Khushi gritted her teeth "I don't want to spend any of my precious time with you in this dumpster..how did you get in here so fast with so many people here"
"Oh come on Khushi it isn't that bad and I have my ways to get in and out of places" he smirked.
Khushi pursed her lips in anger "You know what?I will deal with you tomorrow,after a good amount of sleep"
"Great then,come on in" Arnav said,stepping back and gesturing to the cell.Khushi gave a frustrated sigh.She turned around and made her way towards the exit "Have sweet dreams about me" yelled Arnav.
"Never!" yelled back Khushi.Arnav chuckled.
**************************************************
Khushi came back home and calmed down her unsettled dad.Finally after he peacefully fell asleep in his bedroom,Khushi went to her bedroom.She sat on her bed,holding her head.'How did he get out with so much security?' thought Khushi 'And how did he get back in before me?'.Khushi closed her eyes in frustration.After calming down,she finally opened them.A folded piece of paper caught her eyes.Curiously she got up.Grabbing the piece of paper,she unfolded it.There was an address on it.Judging by the handwriting,Khushi knew the General didn't write it.Khushi read the note under the address out loud "The underworld is decreasing but you probably want all of it to be gone.Get your team to come to the address written above at 2 pm.Nearly every criminal will be there.From your well wisher" Khushi folded the note back as it was and put it in her drawer.'Should I trust this person who wrote the note' thought Khushi 'He could be telling the truth,and it won't hurt to check if he is right'.
**************************************************
The next day Khushi sent a team to the address.They had been gone for a few hours.Khushi was doing some paper work when an constable came to her "Maam,Panther is wishing to speak to you"
"What" she exclaimed shocked "Tell him I am not coming"
"Ma'am he insists..Inspector Ram is trying to get some truth out of him but he won't speak..he says whatever he has to say will be said to you"
"He's got to be kidding me" mumbled Khushi.She sighed "Which room are they in?"
"Room 12"
Khushi nodded.She got up and made her way to room 12.Opening the door,she saw Panther relaxing on his chair while Inspector Ram looked disheveled.Khushi nodded at him,indicating him to go.He nodded and left.Khushi sighed when the door closed.She looked up at Panther "What's the problem"
"He was driving me insane with his questions" said Panther scratching the back of his head
"Are you sure it wasn't you" Khushi said raising an eyebrow.
"No I am pretty sure it was him"
Khushi rolled her eyes "The constable told me you wanted to tell me something..spit it out"
"First have a seat" Panther said gesturing to the chair.
"I don't have time for chats,I have lots of work to attend to"
"Fine I'll tell you something about Aarze since everybody wants to know"
Khushi stared at him "Go on"
"You probably don't know but Aarze was a criminal before he died..he had a small,middle class family..a brother,a sister-in-law,and a niece..he became a criminal at the age of 23 when he 'accidentally' killed his ex boss.He died in an accident with his brother and sister-in-law because his enemies had planted a bomb under their car...he is the one who taught me everything and only because I am where I am now"
"That's sad" said Khushi sarcastically "Usually people teach another to be good but here is the total opposite"
Panther shrugged "He has a safe buried under the grounds of White Cliff..it has all the most precious jewels he stole which are probably still valuable,also his enemies's addresses and stuff like that"
"White Cliff?Why would he bury it there?" asked Khushi curiously.
"I see you still keep the curiosity in you..he probably hid it there so nobody could find it"
Khushi nodded but a few minutes later she widened her eyes and looked at Panther "Wait what happened to the niece?"
Panther smirked.
