She Is Not Here

His security men’s missed calls were the first thing he saw.

Then he swore when he saw Officer Guy's missed call as well.

He saw a message notification sign at the top of the screen as he dialled Officer Guy’s number back.

“Hello”: he said as the officer picked up the call. “Sorry, I missed your call. I wasn't with my phone.”

“It is fine, we found the van.”

“What, where? Is she…”

“No, she is not there. Not much clue here either. They strip it down. I am beginning to think we are dealing with some professionals here.”

“But the van, plates and everything. It can lead you to…”

“Yes, that was our initial thought as well, but we just released the van to a very happy grandfather a few minutes before you called. It was stolen, Mr. Rohan. They stole it from the man’s grandson, who decided to test his driving skills without telling the old man. It was reported stolen in another district the same day they kidnapped the girl. So it was a one-stop job.”
