Vihaan and the unraveling of truth

[Part 2 : http://agentbhv.blogspot.in/2014/07/vihaan-and-mrx.html ]

The same day. After few hours, from leaving the mysterious building of Mr.X.

"See, its dark as you wanted. What is your plan of action now?" asks Ojas and Vihaan understands his curiosity. So, with a simple smile, answers "Just wait for a while and i will give you some adventure."

An hour more passes by. Ojas kills his time with a game of chess in his mobile and Vihaan was so excited that he could kill the time by just sitting idle and letting his mind think! When time was ripe, Vihaan stands up to unplug the charger of a gadget, he always wanted to use and could never put to use till date, and says "Its time to go."
"What? Is it already? I thought you were going to test my patience, the whole night!" mocks Ojas.
"Haha" giggles Vihaan, and "We will have our dinner, once we are back. Ok?"
"Why did you mention it so particularly? We will be coming back, right?" doubts Ojas.
With another laugh, "For sure! Don't worry, i ain't gonna involve in you any trouble."

In no time, Ojas and Vihaan were standing in front of Mr.X's building!
"What are we doing here?" asks Ojas in a low voice, clear enough to notice that he was afraid, a bit.
"Don't you worry. Just a small work. Lets go." And as Vihaan proceeds, Ojas takes his steps as slowly as possible.
They go through the lawn to the posterior side of the building and to the window, that was open, this morning. Luckily, it was open then too.
Vihaan slowly drags it to see if anyone were there and finding none, points Ojas to handover the small bag, he held. When Ojas hands it over, Vihaan picks a bundle of metal sticks, each an arm length. They were interconnected to each other and when expanded will grow up to 6 feet long.

"What are you doing with these tent-house connectors?" asks Ojas.
"We need them now to put this pen camera there" and points to the place beside a bulb holder in the dusty and never to be cleaned false ceiling present in that room.
"Then what?"
"This pen camera has a recording time of 24hrs and it will send everything it records, to this receiver, but it should be under 100mts to receive the recording. If we are lucky, we can get all the proofs we need, by this time tomorrow! And, by placing it beside the over head bulb, will act as a flash and the recording will be clear. Also, placing it beside a CFL bulb will decrease the chances of getting spotted, as not many would see into the bulb directly!"
Vihaan expects Ojas to be flattered by his theory, but "Well, all your derivations are fine, but isn't it general human tendency to watch the bulb first as soon as he enters a room and switches it on?"
"I know. Im just taking chances. This is the only way to get the proofs. If we are lucky, we might get all we need even before sunset and they might not even switch on the light!"

With that, they give an end to talking and ties the 'pen' to the end of the stick and with some struggle, places it firmly in the place where they wanted it exactly. Confirming that it was fine, they leave.

The next morning, Vihaan and Ojas woke up a lot earlier than they are used to. Got ready and reached Mr.X's house. Maintaining a distance under 100mts, they start to get the recording, live! As they wait for Mr.X or others to show up, they discuss about every matter of the World that could strike their mind and could kill the time.

Soon, they see a few people walk into the room. Mr.X was there too, with a new bag of stuffed toys, who places them aside. Ojas and Vihaan, then see Mr.X and others pack the stuffed toys they bought the earlier day into separate boxes each, along with a sheet of paper with something being written on it.

Once the packing was done, Mr.X and two others carried those boxes away, while three other people stay back, with the new bag of stuffed toys.
Vihaan says "I want you to stay back and keep recording, as what will happen next is the vital point of their crime and we need proofs."
"Why, where will you be going?"
"I need to follow Mr.X and see what he does next. You be safe and keep posting me the updates. See ya!" and leaving Ojas back, Vihaan sets to follow Mr.X.

Luckily, none notice the camera and continue with their work. Vihaan had got his glance yesterday, so it was Ojas's turn to see the happenings. Mr.X and his gang weren't playing out with dead bodies or killing humans, but were focused in the process of making some! Ojas perceives.

Meanwhile, Vihaan follows Mr.X into a courier office. Vihaan had nothing to do, so he poses to be a customer with a query on postal price charges.  While talking to the representative there, standing beside Mr.X, Vihaan records the addresses that Mr.X was sending those boxes to, with his mobile phone. Those boxes were being sent to students of different colleges in Bangalore, Chennai, Pune and Mumbai. Soon, Vihaan takes his leave from there and by the time he reaches his house, Ojas was there.

"Done? Got all we wanted?" asks Vihaan.
"Yes. What about you? What did they do next?"
"I will show you. Lets get started" says Vihaan, and in few minutes all threads were connected.
"So this Mr.X's gang, buys stuffed toys from various shops. Cuts them open and fill them with various kinds of drugs. Stitches them back safely. Packs them and ships them to students from various colleges directly, to avoid any kind of physical interaction, but to keep the business growing and are pushing the students into a ceaseless quagmire of drug-addiction!" exclaims Ojas.
"Yes! They should be getting the money debited via online from students and then, should be sending them the parcel with fake names and identities. So that even if the parcel is caught, which is a very rare case as even if someone else receives the toy, they would only think that its filled with any material, but drugs. This way, they are being invincible!" concludes Vihaan.

Soon, without further delay Vihaan and Ojas put this story in front of police, with the help of Vihaan's dad who has some high level contacts in Police department. After going through the proofs and raiding Mr.X's house, police confirm them to be accused and the whole gang gains their place in Jail. After getting some details from the gang, strict orders gets passed to courier offices and colleges which were under the influence of drugs, to be careful while sending or receiving the parcels. With the money transaction details, Police could find out the individual students who were involved too. But in order not to spoil their lives by bringing them to lime light, very strict warnings were sent to them and the information was passed on to their parents as well.

In order not to invite any trouble, Vihaan and Ojas's identity remains concealed, but City's IAS officer and many others appreciate them personally for everything they have done. Hands them over, their 'pen camera' which was retrieved from Mr.X's house on Vihaan's request.

The next morning, the articles in news papers posted something like,

'Two software professionals spend their weekend in risking themselves to unravel the truth and expose an illegal drug trafficking gang, who had been having their operations from quite some time now. Police have had information about such dealings but couldnt gather the lead, until these two guys have sorted it out. (And the rest of the news followed). During our special interview, one of them said, "I was inspired from 'Sherlock' and this adventure has been so remarkable, that i'm craving to have more of it now." The other added, "When my friend doubted the head of this gang, i didn't trust him and thought he was getting insane. But from now on, i will join him in any adventure he will seek!" The detective duo claim this to be the proudest day of their lives! We wish them all the luck and strength, if they are bound to be on further adventures!'
