C6 Chapter 6

Distinguished Senator Sir!

Sam said as he bowed down to greet a man in his early 40s. Mere looking at the man, one needs not to be told that he touches money. Even the environment and things in his place which looked like an executive building testify to that. His gold wristwatch and necklace didn't say anything different. He even appeared so stylishly in his dress. The only thing one needs to know or do before attesting to the fact that the man is rich is just to see him.

The brain bucket, you're welcome Sam. Have your seat friend... The man told Sam.

Jibrin, bring my drink and that of Sam. He said as he turned to one of the men standing behind him. With his head, he signaled to the other two guys to exit the parlor for him and Sam...

Jibrin brought two different bottles of wine and two glass cups. opened each of them, then served the two men which were already seated.

Honorable, the case now wants to spring up, but it's still under control.

What happened? Is there anyone remaining to pull any stunt? Senator asked as he sipped his wine.

Not just that they brought the case of stubborn Louis in our office. They said they want to do an underground check to know who killed him and then bring the person to book.

That's a minor case but who exactly brought the case to your office? Senator asked

Yakubu, I said it's under control. But Officer Jimmy and Louis' daughter and one of Louis's neighbors brought the case.

Sam is it not better we clean the mess before the hunter becomes hunted??

It's nothing to worry about, the daughter is still young. The neighbor doesn't look that rugged to counter our movement. Except for Officer Jimmy who is claiming to know all.

I suggest we either warn him to stay away or put him in the other position

Sen Yakubu said playfully.

We need not worry. I insisted that I'll be the team leader of the investigating team which they all agreed. I'll be dawdling their time and receiving small peanuts if necessary

Hahahahah. Sam! Sam!!

It's okay if you're the team leader. Let's see who will file another case or come to my house and collect this case file.

That's all my dear. We remain the leading team.

Sen Yakubu's phone rang

He took it from the table

Hello Ali, how are you... Senator asked

Distinguished Senator sir, I'm fine. Hope you're well as well.

Tór, Lafyia Kalau Yakubu spoke the Hausa language to his caller

That's good. Sir, there's a problem. Justice Zick and his team are reinforcing how to hit back. They've been having indoor meetings since the death of Barrister Louis. They said you're the one behind the attack and killing of Louis and his wife. I don't think the turnback may be friendly

Tell me more, please. How do I clean the mess? The senator said as he adjusted on his Seat.

The deed has been done, befriending Sick which was your strategy won't work now because the hatred in his blood can't be washed. I heard a policeman with name Jimmy has been the one feeding them the information they need about the death of Louis. Even their life of Sam is at stake.

Subhanallah!! Na guide Ali. I want to meet you at my hotel in the next 30 minutes. Come with your crew and I'll talk to Sam and his crew. Something has to be done. Yakubu said as his sweat was seen rushing down from his head. He ended the call and turned to Sam.

Sam, there's a problem and you caused it.

Sir, what problem and how did I cause it?

I sent you to collect the case file and make the operation untraceable but you messed it up. He said in a loud and terrifying voice.

Sir, what's wrong? Sam said in an appealing tone.

It seems someone saw you when you were carrying out the operation. Jimmy and their neighbor have connived with Justice Zick. Now both my life and yours are at stake. But instead of you killing me, I'll kill you first.

As Yakubu's voice was getting higher and higher, the men he exited from the room entered through different doors.

Sir, I swear nobody saw me then, and her daughter can't do such a thing as you just told me now.... Sam pleaded as he went on his kneel.

It's okay. By the way, we're heading to my hotel now to meet with Ali, remember your phones are been tracked. Get your men ready in the Next 20 minutes.

He left the parlor and went upstairs.
