Neil was seated into his chair with his eyes pinned at a distant sight. Nothing in specific, apparently, everything about this case had his head splitting into two. There still were a number of things that he was unaware about. He needed to know everything. He had to.

He was certain of the fact that Ananya wouldn't reveal all her cards to him, even before Ali popped that one stupid clue at him. He would have dug into the details himself. That's what he was at.

He would have continued the interrogation game had Aman not sprang alarmingly. Initially, he was puzzled at the scene that played in front of his eyes.

Aman rose from his seat with a curse. Instantly, all four pair of eyes looked into his direction, three of them were alert while Neil's were glaring at him.

"Di, someone is probably trying to get into the office," he pushed his seat behind and marched towards his workstation while he punched a button on his wrist watch that was blinking red.

All four of them charged, pulling their sleeves as they readied themselves for some action. Neil chose to take a backseat while they worked on whatever it was. He wanted to observe, anyways, the information he was to get was to also be cross verified. So, he better prepare himself for some show.

The screen lit up with a cabin in view. There weren't any movements but their eyes were glued onto the screen. He was tempted to question them but even before he could a person dressed in black appeared on the screen. With cautious steps, it tip toed across the room. Neil's eyes zeroed onto the figure. He moved closer to the screen while Ananya threw instructions at Zeenat and Ali with Aman focusing on the footage.

The person on the screen moved towards the desk and tossed the files as if in search of something specific. It went to cabinets placed behind the desk and continued the search. On the other hand, Neil tried to understand the dynamics of this case. It definitely had a motive to break into one's cabin.

After shuffling through all the files in the cabinet, it kicked onto the cabinet door, frustratedly. It was a given that whatever the search was for, it hadn't gotten it's hand onto it. It calculatively glanced around the room. The team, however, didn't slow down.

He found the eyes of that person narrowing at one corner of the cabin. Walking towards the corner, it's hand forwarded towards the safe. The metal safe had a number safety lock. Surely, it wouldn't know the code to unlock the safe. At least that was the thought that ran into Neil's head.

"Damn," Ananya looked fumingly at the screen as it dusted off some powdered particles on the lock. However, she was composed enough to order Aman, "Drop the contents right when it opens the damn safe." A smirk adorned her face.

"But di," Aman was taken aback by her decision. It raised Neil's curiosity level.

"Do as I say, Aman," her authoritative tone left no room for any arguments. She was in her element; true element. Like a 'Boss Lady' she ruled the room.

"What's running in your head?" Zeenat popped from behind.

"It is in search of something and I definitely don't want it to get its hand onto whatever it is," she explained with a smile.

"But the safe doesn't contain anything related to this assignment," Ali tried making a point.

"Exactly! We know that. But does this stupid person know that?" She asked to no one in particular, her eyes not leaving the screen. "I really doubt that," she spoke with her hands folded across her chest.

"Aman," she called out and they all turned attentively towards the screen. Aman was already punching codes onto his system. "Take the contents down, on the count of three," she signalled him.

With the stated counts, the bottom of the safe split across resulting the contents sliding off the pipe beneath. The person could do nothing but stare at its loss. The bottom closed back and the person tried look through the wooden cabinet beneath it. But it was left disappointed. With nothing in hand, the person stormed off the cabin. It indeed gave everyone a moment of relief.

Neil had finally seen them work.

Though they were good at what they did, he wasn't letting anything hamper his decision or his line of thoughts. They might be good but Ananya has been hiding things from him; might have even lied to him. He didn't know the details and he wasn't going to make a judgement without having his hands on full information. It was about time, he gets his hands on it.

The doorbell rang and he walked towards the door. Finally, he might have some.
