As soon as the door closed, the girl stood away at a respectable distance from Neil and covered herself. She was a call girl caught previously in a racket whom Neil had rescued and gotten her another job as a social cause. However she was kicked out the job due to her past and had to go back to dance as a bar girl. But at least she had a strong presence at this new place and had a say in what she wanted to do depending on how much she wanted to earn!

Neil -"Shabana. Aaj Mujhe tumhari madad ki zaroorat Hai. " (Shabana I need your help today)

Shabana kept her head down. Neil's influence had gotten her out from a really bad phase in life. So she was forever indebted to him.

Shabana -"sahab. Aap jo bolo main karungi. Jaan bhi haazir Hai. "(Sir I'll do what you say. My life is also on offer)

Neil was slightly touched at this and sat down. He held his head in his hands -"Avni. Meri wife. Wo log use le Gaye hain. Only the worst fate awaits her. I need you to find out where raghu pandit holds his auctions for girls"(My wife Has been kidnapped by those people.)

Shabana gave a shudder. She had undergone quite a lot in her life. And knew very well what sort of a life avni could expect in midst of these wolves.

Shabana -"Neil sahab. Mujhe auctions Ka to nahi Pata. But I know all girls for flesh trade are kept in a central place. Girls from all over India are brought to the city's prostitution centre and then stored for auction and then further distribution. Raghus gang also owns real estate there. I believe avni will need to be taken there only. Unless.. Unless they kill her before that "( I dont know about auctions.)

Neil eyes darkened on hearing this -"Mujhe nahi Lagta ki wo avni ko kuch karega before auctioning her. Once auctioned of course it's another thing. I know wo apna thoda sa bhi maal Kharab nahi karega. Wo paise Ka bhookha Hai. He already thinks I'm dead. So he will not touch her for now" (I dont think they'll harm her before auctioning her. They'll not destroy their inventory.)

Shabana -"sahab auctioning happens one day every week. And that day is tonight. I think wo seedhe madam ko wahan le Gaye hain. Unke pass time nahi hoga Aur kuch karne Ka. Plus aapke saath ko uska lafda Hua Hai. Uske baad they'll want to hush things and quickly dispose of her as well" (I think they've taken madam there. They won't have time to do anything else. Plus they've had skirmish with u. They'll want to rush things quickly and dispose her)

Neil nodded. Shabana was right. He said before leaving -"Shabana are you sure you want to continue working here."

Shabana smiled and said. -"Saab. Ab yahi meri life Hai."( Sir. This is my life)

Neil said -"Mujhe call karna do dinon ke baad. Mere dad ke ek NGO Ka school Hai. They need a disciplinarian there to run things smoothly and honestly. I think you fit the bill. Give it a thought and call me.". (Call me after two days. My dad's NGO runs a school)
Neil left saying this and Shabana's eyes were moist as neil left. She raised her hands in prayer for avni.

Neil hitched another ride to the area that Shabana referred to. He met DD there whom he had again messaged with some instructions. DD had found out the name of pandits company that owned the real estate.

Neil and DD walked towards a dark side of the building. Neil told DD that he will creep in and stake out the place while DD should carry out a raid with the entire police force in some time.

Saying this Neil scaled the wall and landed on the other side. He could see some lights on in the building and thought about avni sitting somewhere there. He then quietly jogged into the building like a cat with padded paws.
