CHAPTER 25

Madesha is shocked to hear about job

Michael got a phone call from Blade Kumar. “Michael, four men from Churi gang have been put in jail by the police. Because of this Churi gang has become weak.”

Michael said seriously, “This is a good time to put a point on that Churi. We must not miss this chance.”

“I have found out that he visits the daba outside the village with two of his men for drink. After drink, they fall drunk inside that old hut in the top of the nearby hill. He thinks no one knows about that hideout. We can put a point on him there.”

“I will put my plan in action immediately.”

********************************************************

          Michael and Madesha were drinking in a bar. Seeing Madesha drinking heavily, Michael said, “Don’t drink too much.”

“Exams are starting tomorrow. I have to at least touch my books a bit. That is why this limit.”

“That job I have given you has started. That is why I told you not to drink too much.”

Madesha was shocked. “What job do I have in this bar?”

Michael pointed to a group of people. “See there. Just observe that man sitting in the middle.”

Madesha looked in that direction. “That man with beard and a muffler around his neck?”

“Yes. Your job will start with that man. Have you looked at him carefully?”

“Yes.”

“Ok. Now get up. Boss will tell you the details about the job.”

**************************************************

Blade Kumar gave a jerkin to Madesha. “You must wear this.”

Madesha was surprised. “Why this jerkin?”

Blade said seriously, “I have given you five thousand as advance. Your job has started. You must just listen and obey. No questions.”

Madesha got scared at the serious tone. He looked at Michael.

“Madesha, this is field work. You have taken advance. Now you have to walk in the direction shown by boss. First you wear the jerking. He will tell you what to do next”

Michael helped Madesha wear the jerking. Madesha was feeling scared.

“Did you observe that bearded man in the bar carefully?” Asked Blade.

Madesha nodded.  Blade removed a sword from below the bed. Madesha got scared.

Blade placed the sword in front of Madesha. “Michael will tell you how to hide and use this. He will train you.”

Michael shivered with fear. He looked at Michael. “I don’t understand.”

Blade looked at Michael. “Didn’t you explain the job to him?”

“He is new to the field. If I had told him about the job before itself, he would not have touched the advance. Now he cannot escape. You tell him about the job.”

“Ok. This Michael will take you to one place. He will point out the bearded man. You have to just go quietly and pierce this sword into his back. That’s all.”

Madesha is shocked. He stood with folded hands. “I have never done such a job. I have never even hit anyone. That day, for the first time, I hit Mallesha. Whole night I couldn’t sleep.”

Blade became serious. “We were also afraid when we first entered the field. This sword makes one scared. But when you hold it in your hand, it gives you courage.  Soon all this will become common.”

Michael hid the sword behind the jerkin.

Blade said, “Now you are double safe. Michael, finish him off tonight itself. Then bring this fellow back safely.”

Madesha got up feeling very scared.

Blade said, “That sword has already given you strength. With that, if you put one peg inside, your act will be completely different.”

Blade went into the room to bring drinks. Madesha thought this was a good chance and ran outside. He climbed on to his bike and left in high speed.

Michael was shocked. He thought, “How far will you go?”

Blade came back with drinks. “If he does not kill Churi, we will take off his hands and legs. Don’t let him escape. Take some men with you.”

Michael smiled crookedly. “Where will he go? He knows only two places. His house and my room. I will catch him and beat him up.”
