"Mishra Ji had returned to his home in Balam Pur village, Varanasi. The news of his daughter's disappearance had spread throughout the village, and it was no longer a secret. The understanding villagers empathized with Mishra Ji's pain and distress. However, the conservative-minded individuals began to gossip, saying that the absence of a son in the family was the root cause of the problem. They claimed that the daughters were spoiled and did as they pleased, and that Tapsvi Ji never scolded them. They whispered that the daughters were raised with excessive pampering, and now they were paying the price.

Although no one dared to say anything to Mishra Ji's face, they all gossiped behind his back."

"Meanwhile, in Mumbai, Tiger had assigned his men to investigate. He first sent his guard to Palak's college in Balam Pur, where they conducted an inquiry and gathered details about her last day at college. Despite gathering all the details, they couldn't find any leads on her whereabouts or who might have kidnapped her.

As a last resort, Tiger ordered his guard to obtain the CCTV footage. The college authorities provided the recording, which revealed that Palak had indeed left the college and was walking down the street."

"Tiger had managed to obtain the footage from the college, but it only showed Palak walking out of the college. There were no cameras in the surrounding area, only small stalls and no shops with CCTV cameras. The entire day had passed, and Tiger visited Ved in the evening, showing him the recording. He explained that there were no further recordings available.

As Tiger spoke, Ved was busy smoking, but his attention was focused on Tiger's words. After finishing his cigarette, Ved crushed it under his foot and exhaled the smoke, saying, 'Whoever kidnapped her is very cunning. They must have checked the entire location to see where the cameras are and where they aren't. That's why they were able to abduct her so cleverly. The school authorities must have checked the cameras and seen her leaving, but they wouldn't be concerned about where she went after that. And, of course, there are no cameras in the surrounding area.'"

"Tiger listened attentively to Ved's words and asked, 'Boss, how do we find out now?'

Ved replied, 'Leave the location where she was last seen. He's fooled everyone. Now, check the CCTV cameras on the entire highway. There must be some evidence... As the saying goes, a thief always leaves something behind. He must have left some clue.'

Tiger always followed Ved's instructions carefully and understood his words perfectly. After grasping Ved's plan, Tiger left with his guard to start the investigation."

"Deep into the night, in a desolate place, Palak's hands and feet were still tied with ropes. Her hair was disheveled, and her face was covered with strands of hair. She had been crying and screaming until her throat was parched, and her eyes were swollen.

Since her arrival, she hadn't eaten anything, but her captors had forced her to drink water to prevent her from dying. She was no longer screaming, but sat silently, leaning against the wall."

"One of the boys brought a plate of food and left it in front of Palak, but she didn't even glance up at him. The boy returned to the other boy and said, 'She's not eating anything. If she continues like this, she'll die.'

The other boy replied, 'Don't worry, she won't die overnight. I'll talk to the boss in the morning about what to do with her.'

He added, 'This foolish girl probably thinks we've taken her somewhere far away, but she has no idea that we've brought her back to the same place with a blindfold on her eyes.'"

"After speaking, the two boys laughed and high-fived each other, as if they had accomplished something remarkable.

Meanwhile, inside, Palak's eyes began to droop. She was unable to comprehend her surroundings or how she had ended up there. Her mind was consumed by thoughts of her family, and she desperately wanted to escape. However, her body was too weak to attempt an escape or put up a fight."

"Mumbai, Malabar, EIM Villa, 1:25 AM. Ved was sitting in the study room, while Tiger and his guards stood before him. Tiger placed four or five pen drives on the table and said, 'These are all the CCTV footages. We checked all the photos and found that a luxury car left the village, but we couldn't find out who owned such a car. The car changed routes and headed towards the highway, then changed several routes again, heading towards the jungles, in the direction of Rajasthan.'

Tiger had gathered evidence very meticulously, and after finding all the clues, Ved smiled strangely. Seeing him smile, Tiger said, 'Boss, I think this is Bhavesh's doing.'"

"Tiger hadn't even finished his sentence when Ved interrupted him, saying, 'No, this isn't his work. If he wanted to do something like this, he would have done it a long time ago. He had plenty of opportunities, but he didn't take them. This is someone else... and I will find out who it is. He thinks he's framed me and is roaming free, but that's not going to happen.'

Ved continued, 'Leave all the pen drives here and go. I'll review them again, more carefully. And yes, have the car ready for tomorrow morning.'

After hearing Ved's instructions, Tiger nodded and left the study room. Once he was gone, Ved began to stroke his chin, as if he had already figured out 80% of the mystery."

"Next morning, Ved arrived in a private jet on the outskirts of Balam Pur village. He was sitting in the back seat of the car, with his laptop open on his lap. As the car moved, they followed the same track.

After a few hours, they reached the same spot where the last car had turned towards the jungle. Tiger asked the driver to stop the car. As soon as the car stopped, Tiger got out first, followed by some guards, and finally Ved stepped out, looking at the laptop screen, which showed the last location of the car heading into the jungle."

"Ved carefully looked at the path and signaled with his finger for everyone to get back into their cars. As soon as he gave the signal, everyone returned to their vehicles and proceeded down the same path. After about 1-2 hours of driving through the jungle, they finally arrived at their destination. Their cars were moving slowly due to the poor road conditions.

Meanwhile, someone in the distance had spotted them and was now rushing towards the spot where the other boy was standing. Panting heavily, he said, 'It looks like someone has followed us here, searching for the girl. Either that, or the police are on our tail, because a lot of cars are entering the jungle together.'"

"The boy's words sent the other boy into a panic, and he began to tremble with fear. He couldn't think clearly about what to do next. In a state of urgency, they both decided that they had to escape from there, no matter what. They knew that the place where they were hiding could be easily discovered, given the visibility of their car and the suspicious appearance of the dark shed-like structure.

The two boys were frantically thinking of a way to escape when the first boy suggested, 'You take the car and leave quickly. They'll follow the car, and I'll take the girl and escape through a different route. I'll also call Malik, and he'll send someone with a car.'"

"Before this, the two boys had brainstormed many ideas, but this one seemed the best to them. They quickly put their plan into action and began to leave the place. However, Palak had been listening to their conversation, as they were speaking loudly. From their discussion, she gathered that her father had come to rescue her.

But she also heard the last part of their conversation, where they planned to deceive her rescuers and take her away through a different route. They would also call their boss to send a car. Hearing this, Palak felt a pang of sadness once again.

The first boy got into the car and started the engine, preparing to leave. Meanwhile, the second boy entered the room, untied Palak's hands, and then rebound them. He also covered her mouth with tape and began to take her away through the back route, hiding from view."

"As soon as the rope around Palak's feet was untied, she stumbled and tried to walk, but the boy grabbed her hand and started dragging her away. Palak didn't want to run, but the boy was forcing her to move.

Palak tried to resist, but she was too weak from not eating or drinking. Her hands were tied, and her mouth was covered with tape, making it impossible for her to escape.

After they left, Tiger stopped the car and got out, moving forward with his guards following closely behind."

"Ved was still sitting in the car when Tiger and the guards went inside the shed. They found no one there, but the surroundings indicated that someone had been there recently. They saw remnants of food and drink, ropes, and tire tracks.

Tiger understood the situation and gave orders to his guards, saying, 'Follow me!' As soon as he gave the

command, all the guards got into their cars and began to follow him. Soon, they were all spread out across the jungle, searching for any signs of Palak."
