The Speed Zone... # 4


POLICE CONTROL ROOM
TIME: 3:30PM



“Sir, there’s an unconfirmed news that some city tour bus driver is planting bombs at all the places wherever he has halted the bus”, Ali said to DCP Ram.

“OH! Any information about the bus number, which travel agency’s bus is that, anything which will leads us to the bus quickly?” DCP asked Ali.

“Sorry sir, that’s all the information for now, but our guys are investigating further for the clues.”
“Ali, send a bomb disposal squad to Charminar first, that’s an obvious stop for the tourists.”
“I’ve already done that sir” Inspector Ali said.

“Ali listen, request all the mobile networks to suspend the network for an hour, between 7pm to 8 pm. I somehow feel we can solve this in that one hour.”
“Ok sir, I’ll do that”

“Mr. Balu, may I know why did pass on the information about bomb blasts thing?” DCP Ram asked.
“That guy was not ready to pay the amount which I was asking.”
“So what’s your role in there?”
“When you catch that guy, and then automatically you’ll come to know who I am.”
“Yeah! Balu.”

TIME: 6:45PM

“Good Evening sir, that tour bus started from Ramoji Film City at 2:30pm. It first stopped at Charminar till 5:30pm then headed towards Nampally” Ali said.
“Ramoji Film City, hey Avinash said he’ll be going there with his friends today.”

******
We got down the bus, visited the temple, had a small photo session, and then got into the bus for the final destination, Industrial Exhibition at Exhibition grounds, Nampally.

Sindhu wanted to check out what's there in my bag. I showed her the kit, and also switched on to show how it works.

"Hey look, your kit is saying there's a bomb in the ambience, I think we must jump off right now", said sindhu laughing out loud.

"Shit! yaar, my kit started working also, I never knew that its working." , I said winking at Sindhu.

"Hey Avinash, but how cum you are having the kit, I mean how did defence labs people allowed you to carry the equipment?" sindhu asked.

"Well, we actually used the old parts to build this model and we took permission for that, actually No permission, we had to show the kit in the college for final year project so I and my friend stole the parts from the lab, built this kit and showed it in the college." I said. , "and more over we actually used the most upgraded version of microcontroller so may be thats why its detecting some stupid electromagnetic signals."

TIME: 6:55pm

Suddenly the kit started detecting the most dangerous signals. I checked the intensity to clear my doubt. I checked for the pre-set values for detecting the signal, it was in default settings. My heart jumped a beat. I fixed the antenna to trace the source of the signal. The screen was showing the source just 9 meters away. I started sweating heavily. I decided to call my DCP uncle. I was about to dial the number and my mobile buzzed, it was DCP uncle calling.

"Hi Uncle", I said. "Hi Avinash, please listen carefully.... there's a bomb in there..." "OH SHIT!" I shouted out loud....

The speed Zone...# 3



“I‘ve been looking forward for this.” Karthik said to me after we reached Charminar.
“You won’t be disappointed. Come this way.” I took Karthik, Contented, KK, and Kavitha to the Biryani house where my friend was already waiting with the packets.

“Hi dude, thanks a lot man!” I said to Mallik.
“Hey! No problem dude, anytime!” said Mallik.


I introduced Mallik to all of the blogger fraternity. Mallik passed on project kit to me. I took it and kept in my bag. For 2 hours girls went for shopping in that area, which is famous for bangles, the famous Chudi Bazar. S0ulassylumm, Prithz, Keshi and Krithika were found bargaining. Sindhu, Siva, Ganesh, Venkatesh and Vicky were exploring Charminar. And Priya, Diana, Neha went to check the pearls. And we guys were enjoying our Biryani.

Finally at 5:25pm we got into the bus and headed towards Birla Mandhir. Girls unpacked all bangles they bought and showed us. They were very excited. On the way I requested to halt the bus at Gafoor Ice cream shop, this shop is famous for Ice lollies. Prithz just jumped out of the bus to get one for her. By the time we completed our quota of one ice lolly, Prithz already started enjoying her third ice lolly. After spending 30 mins there, we headed towards our next destination.



We reached Birla Mandhir at 6:15pm.

DCP Ram pulled a chair and sat in front of the caller, “I would appreciate your cooperation, Mr__”


“Balu.”


“I’m looking for the one who is doing all this.”


“I don’t know.”


“You do not his name?”


“No. He’s a manager of a BPO. He spoke to me on phone few days ago.”


“Which BPO he works in?”


“I don’t know.”



“Look we have been searching for him for past few months. The current information on him is that he is from POK and that he is staying here in Hyderabad since one year.” DCP Ram said to Inspector Ali after coming out of the room.



“Send Bomb Squads to all important locations, and also ambulances. Let’s get ready to face the catastrophe. And instruct all the highway police patrol to start patrolling until 50Kms further, instruct them check all the heavy vehicles thoroughly and especially the bikes.” DCP Ram gave these instructions to Inspector Ali and Went to have a cup of tea.
