“My lord, we found something you need to see” The voice sounded again before Lord Nathaniel turned aroun
 
He took up the television remote before he turned and lower the voice tendency of the Television, he faced one of his boys who called his attention and who quickly stepped forward whilst carrying a laptop.
 
“I found out the records of the attack under the bridge, this is Lord Ruiz and his men” The young man pointed out to a figure showing on the laptop immediately he turned its screen to the drug lord. He paused and continued.
 
“This attack happened exactly 12 noon before another incident two and half hours later that same day, and aside the figures and speculations, the Army declared that some terrorists were transporting illegal missiles at some point where immediate curfew was declared by the government and a particular section of the road was blocked but the route where the attack took place wasn’t blocked” the man paused again to let Nathaniel assimilate and continued after the laptop displayed a different sections of pictures.
 
“This is the route to the first intersection where there was an accident report, according to eye witnesses, a drunk truck driver loosed control on a high speed that resorted to the accident and one of the road to the intersection was blocked by the truck. I have 10 seconds video clip here of the incident and four different pictures taken” the man added and quickly swiped across the clip in four seconds. He tapped the space bar and the clip began to play on the laptop.
 
The direction of the camera was at the wrong position and the placement was closely wrong, it seems whoever must have captured it was in a vehicle and the obstruction before it really reflected.
 
Their was a loud horn likewise a loud scre-ming from people as the truck moved in an extreme crazy way. Its speed was uncontrollable as it hit some vehicles while trying to dodge some cars ahead it.
 
The short clip ended when the truck fell sideways and blocked a complete main road just right at the intersection of the road.
 
The man swiped the page off and a picture displayed instantly.
 
“These are the pictures captured” he announced just as Lord Nathaniel watched.
 
There were different galleries of the images, the close-up of the truck, Extreme long shots and the longshots simultaneously.
 
The man began to show the pictures without explanation until he reached the position where the driver of the truck came out. He paused for a moment and zoomed the image.
 
“This is what I wanted you to see” he announced.

Joel gave no response nor turned to Margot who was just some distance away until after the fifth time when she stopped.
 
He turned to look at Margot but he didn’t answered her.
 
 
“Hey dude” Margot repeated when he finally turned to her. She was about to speak again when the door opened instantly and the same man who left earlier walked in,side.
 
He stepped in without closing the door just as Abu entered the room with Valentine walking behind him, two other men were behind Valentine but they stopped at the entrance.
 
Margot had to turn her gaze towards the door when it’d opened, she saw the men walking in and she paused what she was about to say whilst Joel didn’t turned his gaze from her.
 
He could hear the men footsteps and he knew they were coming to him but he didn’t turned his gaze until the man who brought them food earlier shouted on him. They were just about few steps away from him whilst Abu gave way for Valentine who was walking behind him immediately.
 
Vladimir stepped forward and took a glance at Margot from his position, their eyes met and both of them looked quite expressionless. It took a moment before Valentine turned and faced Joel.
 
He folded his arms immediately after two quick steps forward and stepped more closer to Joel. He turned sideways and began to revolve round Joel suddenly.
 
“Who are you young man?” He asked, still roaming round Joel with a folded arms.
 
“You’d not make me repeat myself If I were you” He added and stopped behind Joel when there was no response.

Doss came out from the back side of the vehicle immediately the driver halted. He stepped out and the door was closed by one of the male servant who opened it.
 
Adjusting the collar of his shirt, he stepped into the front balcony of the mansion and proceeded in,side just as few other maids he met on his way all bowed for him respectfully.
 
He stepped into the main building and proceeded straight to one of the hallways where he met two other female maids.
 
“Where is my Father? He asked one of the maids as he walked on.
 
“At the pool” he heard the maid quick response and quickly navigated to another direction contrary to the place he was going.
 
It took him two minutes to get to the pool side Chairman Kim would be, and he entered the massive place after the self security system of the door confirmed his identity.
 
“Dad..” He called in his broad voice and looked round the place.
 
The room was a massive space, decorated to core and it was divided into two sections. One of the sections befitted a bedroom alike a Library but it was extremely large in width and breadth than the pool.
 
He took some steps forward while looking at the wh0le space for signs of Chairman Kim but he got no response.
 
“Dad…” he repeated again before a splash sounded from the pool.
 
Mr Kim came out under the water and looked at Doss direction.
 
“Son” He called with an exclamation admit the pool and wipe his face with both palms.
 
“Good day Dad” Doss greeted and began to walk towards the pool.
 
“Good day Son. Give me a sec” Chairman Kim replied him and began to come out from the pool

Lord Nathaniel stared at the picture displayed on the laptop for a moment, he took enough time to examined the two grided pictures and made a sigh after watching the short cl¡ps.
 
“The attack happened after all vehicles navigated at this intersection. There was an old church at the far end of the road and that’s where the attack took place” the man added in satisfactory and stepped behind the drug lord.
 
 
A picture of Steve was boldly displayed on the screen along the truck, he was wearing an helmet and a construction attire.

Valentine finally understood the kind of person he was dealing with, Joel would in no way seem easy to crack.
 
He had only asked three different questions after asking his first question but Joel answered none.
 
He smiled and unfolded his arm, he turned to Abu who immediately handed over the gun behind him to Val.
 
“I see you are strong” Val uttered Joel and pointed the gun on his head. He maintained a stern face and pulled the trigger.
