LET'S HAVE A TENNIS MATCH.

I walked out of the bathroom while wearing some spear clothes, which I bought before coming to this hotel.

"Hmm... I never thought you were one of those, who like reading books..."

As I came out, I saw Vijay reading a novel named ' A Study in Scarlet ' it was also the first book of the Sherlock Holmes Franchise. I have all the novels of Arthur Conan.

"Which chapter you are reading..."

I asked in curiosity as I looked at him who was reading the book with a very focused eye.

Vijay's eyes drifted towards me and then he turned his head back to the novel again and said...

"PART-01, CHAPTER-05 'Our Advertising brings back a visitor'.."

He spoke without looking at me and I couldn't help but be surprised...

"That's on page 88, I was gone for only 5 minutes and you were able to read till there..."

"I am just a fast reader that's all..."

He said while I narrowed my eyes...

"So what you the plan for tomorrow..."

"It should be me asking you after all you are the one who makes plans, not me..."

He spoke without even looking at me... And I just narrowed my eyes...

"Very well we'll meet him tomorrow and will see what happens then..."

"Yeah, captain..."

He spoke as he did a little salute towards me and got up from the bed and started to move away...

"Where are you going?"

I asked with a curious look... And he turned towards me and spoke...

"Well it's not like you are going to let me sleep on the same bed as you, is it.... So I am going to take my rightful place sofa..."

As he said I realized what type of a question I had asked and for that, I was a little embarrassed but didn't let it show on my face...

"Ok go and sleep..."

"Yeah, but after, I finish part 1..."

He spoke and I just looked at him with a deadpan expression...

.....

In the morning we both got ready and at 8:30 AM, Kalam came to our room and without saying anything to us he took us with him to Akram's place...

"Wait.... Do you have an appointment letter with you..."

As we reached the place which looked no less than a freaking castle, we were stopped by a guard at the gate...

I and Alice both looked towards Kalam...

He took out a small letter from his pocket and handed it over to the guard, which was examined by him...

After he checked the letter and us properly, the guard let us in...

"He looks like a very rich person... So many guards and this freaking mansion in his name..... The guy doesn't look normal to me.."

I spoke as I directed my words toward Kalam, who just shook his head a bit, but still answering my question...

"Akram is not a normal person... He is a businessman with many properties and lands in his name in many countries...."

"If he is that rich then why do something so risky...."

Alice questioned Kalam, who just shook his head again but this time denying Alice's words...

"I don't know that..... But I can tell you that it is not risky for him... The guy controls the border area..... If he wants... He can do anything..."

He spoke and hearing him Alice narrowed her eyes, while I focused on the word control the border...

Controlling the border is something which is not so easy to do.... There is a saying If pillars are not strong then the building is bound to fall... But I say that if the land is weak then even the pillars standing strong can't save the building no matter what...

Controlling the borders gives this guy a very high power as he can easily let anyone get into UK without any problem..... It could be a Drugs Mafia and worst case terrorists... And as the UK is surrounded by different oceans and seas, I can easily tell what type of business this guy does.....his business must be related to some kind of ocean work like ferrying and fishing...

"Here we are..."

We three walked near a garden which looked like a sport ground section as many different types of sports sections were in this place...

"I won't be going much further... You know the guy's face... Go and meet him yourself..."

Kalam said as he turned back and left us there, we both looked at each other and then decide to get on the work as we looked at the ground trying to find our guy...

"It seems he there...."

I spoke as I pointed towards the tennis section where two guys could be seen, though it was very far if anyone looked more closely they could see that one of them was Akram and he was playing tennis with someone there...

"It seems your Eyes are very sharp, I can't tell how you can tell that he is Akram from here..."

This place is very huge and I was pointing towards the other End.... for instance, this place is so big that if mixed all the sports area... It would be close to a huge football field...

"I just have sharp eyes...."

I spoke and started to walk towards Akram while Alice slowly followed me from behind watching my Every move, while thinking about something...

"Haaa... Nice game sir as always, defeating you is not possible for me sir..."

"Hahaha...., after all, I am the best here..."

As we got closer we saw three men there one of them was Akram and the other two we didn't know about.

"Akram can we get a mi..."

"Not now Ma'am wait here until the match is over..."

As Alice tried to talk to Akram his bodyguard stopped us outside the court and didn't let us get in...

....

"Aaa... Shit, I lost again...Sir, you are too good at this..."

"Ya... I know..."

"But sir that Jumping serve, was cool sir..."

After a ten-minute match, three of them came out of the court and started to go towards the Swimming pool...

"Akram... I want to have a chat with you..."

"Ma'am you can't...."

"Let her in...."

As the bodyguard tried to stop Alice again, Akram stopped the guard and let us pass through...

"So you must the Detectives... When did you come... I didn't even see you there...."

Akram looked at Alice and spoke... Though his words were directed to both of us... But his eyes were only on Alice...

"We were standing here for the past 10 minutes..."

"Ohh is that so I am sorry to hear that.... So what do you want from me..... Beauty...."

Akram spoke as he tried to grab Alice's hand but she quickly got back and looked at the guy with a Calm but dangerous gaze...

"I need information about..."

"Stop..stop...we can talk about this later right....at first we should go inside and have a chat, Alon..... And for you servant, he can go and talk to other servants..."

Akram said as he looked at Alice with an intense gaze while indirectly told me to leave the place...

"Sorry, but we don't have much time... I want to discuss everything right here and right now..."

But Alice didn't budge at all as she looked into the guy's eyes, with her sharp gaze...

"Ohh is that so well it can't be helped if you don't want me to take care of you as a guest then it seems we can't have a proper chat, Alice... Then if you excuse me I have work to do my bodyguard will escort you to the outer gates, I hope you have a good day, Alice..."

After saying that Akram started to walk away and a worried look came on Alice's face as he was the only lead, she had in this case... She can't let him get away so easily...

"Ok I will come with you just don't go, we need your help..."

Alice spoke with a different emotion in her heart as she had to swallow her pride away to deal with this guy.

And hearing her a small smile came on Akram's face but he hid that smile before anyone could see it though It wasn't fast enough to stay hidden from me, that's why I knew he wasn't going to let this slip so easily...

"I am sorry Alice but that offer was only for a limited time and you lost it, it can't be helped, I can't do anything now..."

He spoke while an evil smile came on his face as he looked towards Alice, whose face was filled with a mixture of shock and anger...

"Though now that you have asked me so politely, I would give you a chance..."

Akram spoke and suddenly a look of hope came on Alice's face as she looked at the guy with a curious gaze...

While I just watched everything from the sidelines... Seeing Alice getting played on that guy's hand... I didn't know what to say about the stupidity of her...

"Let's have a tennis match...."
