Chapter 7
Ten days later Sapphire already was halfway through her research. She was gathering personal information about Carl, the things which no investigation authority will search to know completely about him that includes information about his nature, his way of dealing things, his likes and his dislikes.
On Monday as soon as she went to her work, she got a call from the chief. "How is your research work going on Sapphire?"
When Sapphire replied positively, he began to supply to her more information about Carl. "Ten days ago, the complete house of Mr Grover, the managing director of Silicon Mills was burnt after the massacre leaving no clue to us. His wife is absconding and we are not able to reach her. There were around hundred bodies of his men including him brutally murdered. The accident spot seemed to give us a clue of someone with untamable revenge and our first suspect is Carl Campbell. Because both of them have had friction since a while."
He sighed and continued. "Grover wanted Carl to fund a fertilizer factory near the forest in the outskirts of the city where there is a river and a few tribes are living. He wanted to dump the factory wastes in the river which is truly against Eco-friendly hubs. Also, it would affect the health of the locals. Carl did not finance Grover and also got his license written off by the state. We have got evidence that Grover killed Carl's wife as a discharge of revenge and Carl as a reply killed him and his complete gang of men though no clue is traceable to us."
Sapphire took out the file from the cabinet which had more details of Campbell. "This was a job which needed urgent investigation and I could only trust the most efficient officers. Obviously, your name was in the top list. That is how you urgently got transferred from Los Angeles to New York." The chief concluded, giving her the vital information.
"Sir, I am already into the project. As and when I got your mail and transfer order, I was on my role play. I had already made my first appearance in the field by acting as a weak displaced girl who needed his help." The chief played with his eyebrows curiously and Sapphirecontinued.
"With my study on the target I could make two conclusions. The first is that we cannot conquer Carl Campbell using the state power or authority. He is mighty and powerful. He knows the ins and outs of law and I'm sorry to say not all of our officers are sincere and honest. So going by rule could backfire us. The only way we could vanquish him is by beating him emotionally. The game with heart is what I am going to play with him adapting to the role of a weak displaced girl."
"What you are going to start is very dangerous Sapphire. If he comes to know the truth, Carl Campbell can even kill you. Think before making your decision." The chief cautioned.
"I like taking challenges sir." Sapphire spoke firmly and saluted him.
